पीएम नरेंद्र मोदी के खान पान से जुड़ी 9 चीजें, जो उन्हें रखती हैं फिट और सुपर एक्टिव

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is known for his busy schedule and disciplined lifestyle. His fitness is often discussed and the simplicity of his eating habits also attracts people’s attention. However, PM Modi himself has made it clear on many occasions that he does not have any fixed diet. During ‘Pariksha Pe Charcha’ in 2026, he had told that he takes vegetarian food and has been eating food as per availability. He also told that sometimes he used to make Khichdi himself.

In his public statements and media reports, there is mention of some traditional Indian food items which are linked to his diet. These include everything from Makhana and Millets to Moringa Paratha and Khichdi. The special thing is that all these things have been used in Indian kitchen for a long time and many nutrients are found in them.

Makhana is one of the most clearly visible things in PM Modi’s diet. During a program in Bhagalpur, Bihar, he had said that he eats Makhana at least 300 days in a year. Describing it as a ‘superfood’, he also talked about the Makhana farmers of Bihar and its global market potential. Makhana is generally considered a light snack. Eating it roasted is quite popular. Protein and some essential minerals are found in it, although it is better to eat it in balanced quantity.

Moringa i.e. drumstick leaves paratha is one of the most talked about dishes related to PM Modi’s choice. He had also mentioned his liking for Moringa Paratha on social media. Fiber, vitamins and antioxidant compounds are found in drumstick leaves. This is the reason why they are used as nutritious green leafy vegetables in Indian food.

Khichdi is probably one of the most simple and comforting food in Indian homes and PM Modi has also mentioned it. In 2026, he told that in the initial days, while eating in different houses, he used to eat available vegetarian food and sometimes even prepared Khichdi himself. The combination of rice and pulses provides carbohydrates and protein. It can be made more nutritious by adding vegetables to it.

Dhokla associated with Gujarat has also been included in media reports of PM Modi’s food and drink. Made from gram flour, this dish is steamed and can be a light alternative to fried snacks for many people. Its specialty is its soft texture and preparation with less oil. However, the amount of chutney, oil or seasoning added on top also affects the nutrition.

Bhakri Dal: Bhakri Dal is a special part of the traditional thali of Gujarat. In this, Bhakri made from jowar or millet flour is usually eaten with pulses. Apart from being tasty, it is also nutritious. Pulses provide protein, while jowar and millet provide fibre, iron and many essential nutrients. In simple words, it is a good combination of desi taste and health.

Indian Avocado: On September 2, PM Narendra Modi shared a video on Instagram. In this he told that Indian avocado is now becoming increasingly popular. According to PM Modi, till some time ago very few people knew about this fruit and its demand was also less. But now avocado has started appearing on people’s dining tables. Its popularity is continuously increasing especially in the health and premium food markets.

These days, black rice is being liked a lot as a healthy food. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also praised the farmers of Manipur and Odisha who grow black rice. An antioxidant called anthocyanin is found in black rice. It is considered beneficial for improving digestion, balancing blood sugar and heart health. This is the reason why it is considered a grain rich in nutrition along with taste.
