India's War on Eggs | Dr. Sylvia on the Great Indian Nutrition Delusion

West Bengal recently removed eggs from school meals and replaced them with soya. On paper, it looks like a simple change in a menu. In reality, it opens up much bigger questions. Why does one egg create so much political controversy in India? Why do governments keep debating what poor children should eat? And why does food so often become a battlefield of caste, ideology, religion, and pseudoscience?To answer these questions, I sat down with public health physician and nutrition researcher Dr. Sylvia Karpagam.We discuss the politics of eggs, the myths around nutrition, caste and food, the right to nutrition, school meals, and why scientific evidence often loses to ideology.If you enjoy the conversation then please become member of this podcast.
