    Madhu Chandan joins Akshayakalpa Organic for new ‘Good Food Talks’ episode

    Mumbai: Akshayakalpa Organic has launched its second episode of ‘Good Food Talks’. This episode aims to educate consumers about the quality of food, its future, and the growing health consciousness in society.

    In this episode, Organic Mandya founder Madhu Chandan discusses the transformation in farming practices. He highlights how traditional, self-sustaining agriculture, once focused on personal and local consumption, has given way to commercial monoculture farming driven by profit. This shift has deeply affected Indian farmers, with 90-92 per cent of them being marginal farmers earning minimal incomes from landholdings under three acres.

    Madhu Chandan said, “Growing up, I saw how the rice my grandparents ate was far healthier than what we have today. This decline in food quality is due to poor soil health and modern farming practices. Embracing organic farming can restore soil health and bring back the nutritious food our ancestors enjoyed.”

    Akshayakalpa Organic co-founder and CEO, Shashi Kumar stated, “This episode talks about the deep relationship between the health of our farmers and the food we consume. Organic farming isn’t just about using no chemicals; it is a way of nourishing the soil, farmers, and the people. Through this podcast we want to empower consumers to question the source of their food through such conversations, further raising awareness around what they consume.”

    The episode focuses on the adverse effects of modern farming on soil health and food contamination. It advocates for organic farming as a way to restore nutrition, sustainability, and food quality.

    Akshayakalpa Organic launches ‘Good Food Talks’ video podcast series

    Mumbai: Akshayakalpa Organic, an organic dairy and food brand, has launched its new video podcast series under the title ‘Good Food Talks’. Through this series, the brand intends to increase awareness among consumers about the source and quality of food and its future, as well as the fast-growing health and fitness awareness in modern society.

    ‘Good Food Talks’ is envisioned as a podcast series where thought leaders, industry experts, and health enthusiasts can express their opinions on the changing world of food and wellness. Each episode will bring viewers closer to home with regard to the importance of organic and healthy eating habits, the journey of food from farm to table, and the broader implications of our food choices on health.

    The first episode features Nithin Kamath, an established entrepreneur and the co-founder of Zerodha. The conversation touches upon many various aspects of food and health. These include knowing the origin of our food, the benefits of choosing organic and understanding good food and its impact on our health. It also features topics like the public shift in consciousness over the last 10 to 20 years to healthier living and fitness. Nithin Kamath further shares his personal journey and thoughts on the importance of making informed food choices and how these choices contribute to overall well-being.

    Zerodha founder and CEO Nithin Kamath remarked, “The entire Rainmatter Health team keep questioning the source of the food we all consume which led us to investing in startups across various food categories like milk, eggs, vegetables and cereals. With this initiative, Akshayakalpa will nudge more Indians to think about what they consume and how it affects their health.

    Akshayakalpa Organic co-founder and CEO Shashi Kumar stated, “We are excited to bring out a series on the Good Food Movement as part of our continuous initiatives to educate and engage the community on the importance of organic and healthy eating. We want to empower consumers to question the source of their food through such conversations, further raising awareness around what they consume.”

    The video also discusses the importance of soil health in producing high-quality, more nutritious food. The soil in which food is grown plays an important role in determining its nutrient content and overall health benefits. Healthy soil supports rich plant growth, enhances the flavor of produce, and reduces the need for additional chemical additives, ultimately leading to better food quality.

    Akshayakalpa Organic is a company committed to changing the way people eat through healthy organic dairy and food products. In pursuit of the vision ‘Healthy World, Happy World’, Akshayakalpa Organic closely associates with farmers to ensure the highest standards of organic farming and animal welfare.

    The first episode of “Good Food Talks” featuring Nithin Kamath is now live on the official YouTube channel and website of Akshayakalpa Organic.
