Indian food in New Zealand

Woolworths (Countdown), New World and Pak'nSave stock basmati, dals and atta, and Indian stores in Sandringham, Papatoetoe and Hamilton carry paneer, fresh curry leaves and seasonal Indian vegetables. Dairy is excellent and affordable, which helps protein targets.

Wet, cool winters and smaller towns with fewer Indian shops are the usual hurdles. The plan keeps a list of long-life staples — dals, millet flours, frozen vegetables — so you are never stuck when the local store runs out.

Health priorities for Indian-origin adults in New Zealand

As in other countries, people of Indian origin in New Zealand tend to develop type 2 diabetes and heart disease earlier and at a lower body weight. Winter can also push vitamin D down. The plan starts from your HbA1c, lipids, thyroid and vitamin D results.

Weight gain after moving, PCOS and pre-diabetes are the most common reasons New Zealand clients get in touch.
