WHY WE STARTED
Two software engineers who couldn't feed themselves properly.
He solved the nutrition. She solved the taste.He solved the nutrition. She solved the taste. Neither of us would have got anywhere alone.
AT 21
Shubham was diagnosed with diabetes.
HbA1c of 13.7, where under 5.7 is normal. Sugar after meals hitting 380–390. Forty units of insulin a day, four injections, one before every meal. The nutritionist's answer ran to pages.
His HbA1c was 13.7, where anything under 5.7 is normal. Blood sugar after meals hit 380–390. He was on 40 units of insulin a day, four injections, one before every meal.
The nutritionist's answer was a diet chart running to pages, for seven days. Following it exactly is nearly impossible for anyone with a job. His mother made it work.

TEN MONTHS LATER
No medication. Normal levels.
Ten months of glucose monitors, finger-prick tests and charts of which food did what at which hour. Which raised the obvious question — if it took that much work with family cooking for him, what happens to a busy couple with nobody at home?
Ten months of measuring everything — continuous glucose monitors, finger-prick tests, charts of which food did what to him at which hour of the day. He got to the point of managing it on diet and exercise alone.
Which raised the obvious question. If it took that much work with a family cooking for him, what happens to a busy couple with nobody at home?
THE OTHER HALF OF THE PROBLEM
Shubhangi rebuilt the food nobody wanted to eat twice.
She tried every healthy brand going. Either they weren't tasty, or they were tasty because of the mayo. She loves fast food and sweets, so she rebuilt those instead of banning them — pasta from pulses and brown rice, sandwiches with homemade chutneys and no mayo, quinoa idlis soft enough to eat four days running.
She tried every healthy brand going. The khichdi, the sandwiches, the bowls. Either they weren’t tasty, or they were tasty because of the mayo.
She's the one in the house who loves fast food and sweets, so she rebuilt those instead of banning them. Pasta from pulses and brown rice with a sauce cooked from actual tomatoes, not ketchup. Sandwiches on multigrain bread with chutneys and hung curd, no mayo. Quinoa idlis that came out badly the first time and are now soft enough that Shubham eats them four days running. Date, nut and seed bars for the gap between meals, with no oats, no puffs, no preservatives.
