From beetroot juice to chicken curry, here's what Tejasswi Prakash eats daily for her perfect 10 figure
Tejasswi Prakash has carved a niche for herself in the Indian entertainment world through her versatile roles and standout presence on reality television. With an ever-growing fan base, her off-screen life has also become a source of fascination for many. Frequently, she invites fans into her world via YouTube vlogs, offering insights into her personal habits and daily choices. One such vlog recently highlighted the actress's daily food regimen, revealing a thoughtfully curated routine that balances health with taste. Starting Her Day With Simplicity and Balance Tejasswi begins her mornings on a warm and familiar note—sipping a cup of tea lovingly prepared by her partner, Karan Kundrra. As she heads to work, she consumes a homemade wellness drink comprising bottle gourd, Indian gooseberry (amla), and mint (pudina). These ingredients, she says, aren't just refreshing but also serve specific health functions. The bottle gourd and mint help cool the body and assist in digestion, while the Indian gooseberry is known for its properties that promote thicker, healthier hair. She then hydrates with a glass of sweet lime juice, giving her a burst of citrus energy before the day kicks in. Breakfast Favorites and Mid-Morning Hydration Despite her commitment to health, Tejasswi doesn't shy away from indulgence. Her breakfast typically includes some of her favorite foods—idlis or samosas—blending comfort with tradition. After this satisfying start, she keeps her energy levels up and body hydrated by sipping on beetroot juice and coconut water. These nutrient-rich beverages support circulation and replenish electrolytes, keeping her fresh throughout the morning. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Join new Free to Play WWII MMO War Thunder War Thunder Play Now Undo A Hearty Lunch and Digestive Practices For lunch, Tejasswi leans toward full, cooked meals, often incorporating non-vegetarian options. A typical plate might include chicken curry, assorted vegetables, a fresh salad, roti, rice, and, on some days, kebabs. Once she finishes eating, she follows a quick Vajrasana session—a yoga pose widely recognized for aiding digestion. Her post-lunch refreshments are minimal but focused: a sugar-free black coffee paired with seasonal fruits. Evening Snacks and Comfort Dinners When hunger strikes in the evening, Tejasswi keeps it light but flavorful. She usually enjoys dry bhel — a crunchy, savory mix—along with lemon water infused with chia seeds for hydration and added fiber. Dinner for her is often centered around South Indian and street food delights like dosas or pav bhaji, offering a comforting end to her day. Tejasswi's Expanding Professional Canvas While Tejasswi continues to connect with fans through lifestyle content, she remains active in her professional journey. She recently made an appearance on Celebrity MasterChef , showcasing her culinary skills. Her next venture is an exciting web series titled Bewafa Tera Masoom Chehra , produced by Saurabh Tewari. In addition, she is rumored to be a part of the reality series Dubai Bling alongside Karan Kundrra, though it's yet to be confirmed whether the couple will be full-time participants or guest stars. She also appeared with Karan in a special segment on Laughter Chef 2 , continuing to charm audiences both on-screen and online. Myriad Benefits Of Beetroot Juice As highlighted by a Healthline report, beetroot juice is a nutritional powerhouse loaded with antioxidants, essential electrolytes, and a variety of biologically active compounds. These components are believed to aid in the proper functioning of the heart and brain while contributing to overall well-being. Contributes to Blood Pressure Management One of the key health advantages of beetroot juice is its potential to reduce high blood pressure. A 2022 meta-analysis emphasized that individuals with hypertension experienced a noticeable drop in systolic blood pressure after regularly consuming beetroot juice. This effect is largely due to the high levels of naturally occurring nitrates found in beets. Once consumed, these nitrates are transformed into nitric oxide in the bloodstream. This molecule plays a significant role in dilating and relaxing blood vessels, which allows blood to flow more freely and eases pressure on arterial walls. Supports Healthy Weight Goals Beetroot juice is nearly fat-free and has a low calorie count, making it an ideal choice for those watching their weight. Drinking plain beet juice in the morning can kick-start the day with a surge of nutrients and sustained energy, making it an excellent addition to smoothies or breakfast routines without contributing to unwanted weight gain. Contains Compounds That May Help Fight Cancer The deep red-purple hue of beets comes from betalains—water-soluble pigments that act as antioxidants. Along with betalains, beetroot juice is rich in polyphenolic compounds and flavonoids, all of which possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. These compounds work collectively to neutralize free radicals—unstable molecules in the body that, in high amounts, are linked to chronic inflammation and elevated cancer risk. By combating oxidative stress, beetroot juice may help safeguard cells from DNA damage and inflammation-related diseases. Excellent Source of Potassium Beetroot juice is a valuable source of potassium, an essential mineral and electrolyte that supports the optimal function of muscles and nerves. Incorporating this juice into your diet in moderate amounts can help maintain a healthy potassium balance in the body. In contrast, low potassium levels may lead to fatigue, muscle weakness, cramps, and in extreme cases, dangerous irregular heart rhythms. Assists in Maintaining Liver Health Beetroot juice also contains betaine, an antioxidant that may help prevent or reduce fat accumulation in the liver. According to animal studies, betaine has shown promise in protecting the liver from damage caused by toxins. While further human research is required, preliminary findings suggest that beet juice could contribute to better liver health when consumed responsibly. May Play a Role in Lowering Cholesterol For individuals battling high cholesterol, beetroot juice might serve as a supportive dietary addition. The compound betanin, present in beets, has been observed in research to potentially reduce levels of LDL cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol. By helping to manage lipid profiles, beetroot juice may promote cardiovascular health over time. Beetroot juice, when consumed in moderation, offers a wide array of health benefits ranging from better circulation to improved liver function and may serve as a natural preventive aid for several chronic conditions.

Move to bring NRC through backdoor: TMC on EC's special intensive revision of electoral roll
"It is a sinister move to bring NRC ( National Register of Citizens ) through the backdoor," said Trinamool Congress leader Derek O'Brien on Saturday about the special intensive revision of electoral roll announced by the Election Commission. Questioning the timing of the drive, the Trinamool Congress, at a press conference here, said the INDIA bloc parties will take up the issue both inside and outside Parliament. The Election Commission last Monday issued instructions to carry out a Special Intensive Revision in Bihar to weed out ineligible names and ensure all eligible citizens are included in the electoral roll, allowing them to exercise their franchise in the polls slated later this year.

The last intensive revision for Bihar was conducted in 2003. "Why is this exercise being suddenly done right now?" O'Brien asked rhetorically at the press conference. Live Events "We have evidence as to why it is being done now. It is because the latest internal survey of the BJP for Bengal shows 46-49 seats for the BJP in the state's assembly polls (early next year). In their desperation to attempt to change things you do such things," he claimed. "It's a sinister move to bring NRC through the backdoor," alleged the TMC Rajya Sabha parliamentary party leader. He added that INDIA bloc parties will take up the issue both inside and outside Parliament. "We are all on the same page on this. We will not wait for Parliament to start. This cannot wait," O'Brien said. On Friday, the Communist Party of India (Marxist) wrote to the poll panel on the special intensive revision of electoral rolls in Bihar and urged it to abandon the exercise. In a letter to Chief Election Commission Gyanesh Kumar, CPI(M) Politburo member Nilotpal Basu stated that while review of electoral rolls is a normal and routine process, the proposals appear to be putting a major part of the responsibility for inclusion or deletion from the electoral rolls is being imposed on the voters themselves. After Bihar, the Election Commission will carry out a similar review of electoral rolls by the end of this year in five states going to polls in 2026. The terms of the legislative assemblies of Assam, Kerala, Puducherry, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal are ending in May-June next year.
