You moved to America—but did your food change more than you realized? Many South Asians in the U.S. experience unexpected health challenges, from weight gain and diabetes to metabolism and gut health. Yet many feel they're still eating the same foods they grew up with. So what's really happening?

Chai & Chat: Career Comeback for Women

indiacurrents.bsky.social @indiacurrents.bsky.social · 18/03/2026
