At the recent “Connecting Ideas With Money” session held on August 4th, 2023. Dr. Rohit Bharat pitched an interesting venture called Boondi Box. He described as India’s first all besan cafe. BoondiBox is on a mission to redefine our approach to food. Their focus is on besan (gram flour), a nutrient-rich alternative to the commonly used maida (all-purpose flour).
In the face of escalating unhealthy eating habits, Boondi Box aims to promote besan’s benefits and address health concerns, including the increasing cases of gastric and colorectal cancer. The café emphasizes besan’s nutritional qualities over maida’s processed nature.
Besan isn’t just an ingredient; it’s a nutritional powerhouse. With dietary fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals, it offers various health advantages, including improved digestion, stable blood sugar levels, and plant-based protein.
Boondi Box showcases besan’s versatility through a menu of besan-based dishes that excel in both taste and nutrition.
Besan’s influence isn’t limited to nutrition; it extends to cancer management. Research suggests besan consumption can positively impact gastric and colorectal cancer cases due to its fiber content, inflammation reduction, and potential anti-cancer properties.
Boondi Box’s journey started with a vision to transform India’s culinary landscape. Months of collaboration with experts in nutrition, health, and cancer research led to their besan-focused menu.
