Diet that is working for me

I am a vegetarian (so far stayed this way :) ) from Andhra Pradesh in India. There is ton of great web sites with excellent recipes for great food. I would recommend making food from any of these and enjoying it with friends and family. However after certain age, around 30 i would say, you better get into eating moderately. If not it will hit you real hard suddenly. Obviously there is not magic number when this would happen.

Everything else equal (genetics, history etc), beyond eating anything moderately, below is what i tried to cut down. It is working (decent annual medical examination results) for me so far.

White rice - replaced it with brown
Salt - cut down eating less salty curries
Sugar - Reduced 5 cups of tea a day to 2, avoiding sweets as much as i can

Don't analyze this too much i would say and start trying out soon. If you would like to go extreme, go moderate on pickles :)

Hope this works for you too...
