Add more natural foods to your and your family's daily diet with this step-by-step and easy guide.
Eating healthy requires stocking your kitchen with the right supplies. In this article, we tell you a few items that you might be using but you should replace them to make your kitchen compliant to ‘Natural Health’. We will not discuss here why an item is unhealthy, because we have already spoken about it in other blogs (Read Natural Foods blog to know more). Here, we discuss only the actionable for replacement. This is not an exhaustive list, but a great starting point. Here we go..

In India maple and agave are imported . So best is to use sweeteners in this order
Dates / raisins / figs
Dates syrup / soaked dates paste / soaked raisin paste
Organic jaggery only if you cannot use dates based sweetening.

Honey may be natural but it is for bees. It is the food for baby bees. Use pure agave syrup or maple syrup instead.
