Cashew Apple: “Five times richer in vitamin C than an orange”, says nutritionist Diwekar in her latest audiobook. Cashew Apple may be a summer conical fruit that creates for the “perfect tangy drink with just one bite”. Rujuta also states that being rich in carbohydrates, this fruit has excellent antitumour and antimicrobial properties - that's exactly why even the worldwide food giants have an interest in it.

Overloaded with flavours, Gajar halwa isn't really considered good for one’s health. But Nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar busts this common myth around this seasonal delicacy and states, “Gajar halwa, that's cooked amorously , warmth and joy in your kitchen are often and actually , always is 100 times ">healthier than cereals”.
