Delivering a lecture on therapeutic applications of innate immunity proteins against microbial infections, organised on National Science Day at the University of Mysore, he said that intake of more proteins will help in maintaining good health.
If we look at today’s lifestyle, food and work pressure, I feel we need to return to our traditional diet, Singh said. “Traditional food has more resistance power. Today’s food has no benefits,” he said.
