There was an article in a newspaper today on indian foods that are good for health. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/diet/12-Indian-foods-that-cut-fat/articleshow/6559721.cms.
Many of the items mentioned are easy to get. I don't know whether chilies refers to red or green chilies. Cabbage, honey, cabbage are readily available everywhere. Mustard oil is the primary medium of cooking in West Bengal. It has a nasty smell but as per the article it seems to be very good for health.
Moong dal (Payatham paruppu in Tamil), garlic, turmeric, clove, cardamom may be primarily available in India or in Indian shops. Turmeric is considered especially good for a sore throat (to be mixed in hot milk).
Hopefully we can change our diet a little in line with the article above, so that we live longer and healthier.
