New Delhi [India], November 1: The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), in association with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and Herbalife, conducted ‘Eat Right Summit 2023,’ at Vigyaan Bhavan in New Delhi, today. The Summit was focused on ‘Shree Anna’ (Millets) to celebrate and promote the cultivation and consumption of millets as a sustainable and wholesome food option for the future while honouring their significance in our food heritage.

The Eat Right India Initiative, a pioneering step towards creating a healthier and more dynamic country, was a focal point of the summit. This campaign promotes traditional foods, healthy lifestyles, and personal responsibility for nutrition. It emphasizes the importance of not only eating right but also living right, with the aim of harmonizing India’s rich culinary legacy with improved health and well-being. During the inauguration, Sudhansh Pant, Secretary Govt of India, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare and Chairperson FSSAI said, “FSSAI and CII have successfully organized a groundbreaking summit that’s igniting a millet revolution among the youth. The launch of Ayushman Bharat has made wellness a national priority, with 162,000 health and wellness centers available across the country, ensuring a total of 170,000 HWS and Community Health options. Rajasthan’s vibrant food streets proudly showcase the cultivation of bajra, while millet canteens at AIMS have accelerated the popularity of these wholesome grains.
