The Fit India Movement, a centerpiece initiative of the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, will debut a special online series called 'Fit India-Sunday Talks'. Starting on January 8 and running through February 26 of 2023, Fit India will host the online discussion show with renowned fitness gurus and icons at 11 am on Sundays.
The programme aims to raise awareness about the value of fitness, a good diet, and mental well-being across all age groups, particularly seniors, in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's ambition to build a fit nation.
There will also be a session where experts will discuss why 2023 should be recognized as the International Year of Millets in order to promote the superfood amongst all sections of society.
Lifestyle expert Luke Coutinho, nutritionists Ryan Fernando & Heena Bhimani, and wrestler and motivational speaker Sangram Singh are among the panelists for the Fit India series.
"The Fit India Healthy Hindustan Program is a commendable initiative of the government and everyone should join this campaign and take benefit from it. According to me, the richest and most complete person in life is the one whose body is healthy. Through these talks, I will share some basic natural methods which people can easily adopt to stay fit at all ages", wrestler Sangram Singh stated while talking about the objective of the show.
Speaking of the same, Heena Bhimani said, "Ageing is natural and cannot be prevented. But yes, with the right health strategies one can live a long, healthy, and happy life. Fit India healthy Hindustan aims to give tips to senior citizens so that they live a healthy life with dignity. Small lifestyle changes can have a big impact."
Nutritionist Ryan Fernando noted that with the Fit India Movement, citizens now have access to various health-related resources and guidance, which has enabled them to make informed decisions about their health. The Fit India Healthy Hindustan series is an attempt to further empower citizens with the right advice.
