About Us

MyThali addresses the most common challenge to healthy eating: people are confused about what to eat and in what quantities. It teaches people about the importance of Poshan (good nutrition) and Portion.    

Inspired by the US MyPlate approach, we translated India’s National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) guidelines into easy-to-follow picture of an Indian Lunch Meal.
