You might be eating palak, methi and other leafy greens wrong: Delhi nutritionist reveals a simple addition that unlocks maximum nutrition

A recent Instagram post by Delhi-based clinical nutritionist Lovneet Batra highlights that eating leafy greens like palak, methi and moringa without healthy fats may limit nutrient absorption. She explains that antinutrients such as oxalates and phytates block minerals, meaning the body may use only half the nutrients unless paired with fats. Batra suggests adding ingredients like ghee, sesame seeds, white butter or curd to enhance absorption of minerals and vitamins, aligning traditional food practices with modern science.
