In a World Battling Lifestyle Diseases, Health Coach Nidhi Gupta Launches a Cookbook That Makes Healthy Eating Delicious – Recipes Under 400 Calories
From diabetes in children to obesity in adults, India is facing a health crisis. This debut cookbook offers a practical, sustainable solution – without compromising on taste.

With rising cases of obesity, diabetes, hormonal imbalances, and lifestyle-related diseases – even among children – there is an urgent need to shift towards healthier eating habits. Junk food, packaged snacks, and sugar-loaded meals have become a part of everyday diets, leading to chronic conditions that were once seen only in older adults.
Children as young as 10 are being diagnosed with early signs of insulin resistance, while young women are battling PCOS, thyroid dysfunction, and infertility. For many families, mealtimes are rushed, processed, and low in real nutrition. The connection between diet, disease, and overall well-being is stronger than ever before, and people are finally waking up to it.
But here’s the challenge – healthy food is often assumed to be boring, tasteless, or time-consuming to prepare.
This is exactly the myth that health coach and fitness expert Nidhi Gupta is here to break with her debut cookbook – “Recipes Under 400 Calories.”
The book is a curated collection of 50 smart, powerful, satisfying, and easy-to-make recipes, each with under 400 calories, created with a deep understanding of nutrition, lifestyle balance, and real-life constraints.
The recipes include a balance of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, designed to:
* Help with weight loss and fat burning
* Support muscle gain with high protein options
* Reduce inflammation, bloating, and cravings
* Improve energy levels without calorie overload
* Deliver bold Indian flavors with smart ingredient swaps
From cheesy pasta to chicken salads, blueberry pancakes, and quinoa Khichdi- this cookbook offers everything from comfort food to modern-day meals for busy professionals, new moms, fitness lovers, and even beginners.
Why this cookbook matters now more than ever:
* 1 in 4 Indians is either overweight or obese
* Childhood obesity has doubled in the last decade
* PCOS and thyroid are now being diagnosed in girls as young as 13
* Type 2 diabetes is affecting 15-25 year 25-year-olds at alarming rates
* Lack of dietary education continues to leave families guessing what to eat
But awareness is rising – and more people are searching for clean eating solutions that are easy, tasty, and sustainable.
Nidhi Gupta, who also runs Fitness With Nidhi and has recently launched her baby food brand, Sproutling, has trained many women across the globe to regain their health through food-first approaches.
With this cookbook, she offers a straightforward, no-nonsense guide to enjoying real food while staying within calorie goals – without compromising flavor.
