This Sattu vs Whey is a very interesting debate within the Indian community, primarily because it operates under a few interesting assumptions. 1) Assumption 1: “My grandfather ate/drank this and lived to 98, if I do it I’ll also live to 98.” Yet we have vastly different

Now if Indians are poor it makes sense not to care about a healthy diet. But as more Indians enter the middle and UMC, work desk jobs and so on, it becomes important to care about your diet. Whey also allows for vegetarians to achieve their protein needs easier.
