In today’s episode, we sit down with Ravinder Grover, COO of HarvestPlus Solutions, to talk about nutrition, hidden hunger, and why food today is not as healthy as we think.
We discuss why your roti has lost nutrition, what deficiencies are doing to children, and why so many people are now talking about protein. Ravinder explains hidden hunger, how millions are affected without even realizing it, and the body signals most people ignore.
The conversation also covers how biofortification started, how countries like Kenya tackled iron deficiency, and why India is still lagging behind. He shares why scientists often go unnoticed, the biggest risks ahead, and why one policy decision could change India’s nutrition story. This episode is about food, health, and the gap between what we eat and what our body needs.
