There is a very famous quote: \u2018Wellness is far-far cheaper than illness.\u2019 So, if you don\u2019t fall ill, you can save a lot of money (and trouble).\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">The 64-year-old actor adds, \u201cOur Ayush \u2013 our traditional medical science \u2013 focuses on healthy living. It talks about healing through food, spices, yog, yogic science and Ayurveda. Today, different countries are packaging them and exporting them to us. Whereas we are the originators of that!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">The actor says that the basics lie in focusing on local produce. \u201cThe start to fitness begins from eating local food from wherever you are,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">He is unhappy with people getting influenced by western fads. \u201cFitness is about keeping things simple. If just four days a week you can give to any sport, that too is perfect. Then, go for maa-ke-haath-ka-khana or food cooked by your wife and then see the difference. The trend of ordering food (from food apps) we must reduce that, and I am saying this especially to our younger generation. Instead, focus on ghar-ka-khaana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">The actor adds, \u201cMy fitness is not a rocket science! Everyone can do that\u2026 it\u2019s so simple. And I talk about fitness \u2013 even at this age \u2013 as I want ki bacche isey follow karein!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">Talking about his visit to Lucknow, he says, \u201cI am really impressed with the way the city has turned up. Bahut hi accha lagta hai yahan pe aakar, kaafi positive vibes milti hai.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Actor Suniel Shetty is lending his voice to Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s push for fitness and healthy living&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":615593,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[64,63,26915,538,137,205318,203707,10072,298834,298835],"class_list":{"0":"post-615592","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fitness","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-fit","11":"tag-fitness","12":"tag-health","13":"tag-mann-ki-baat","14":"tag-pm-modi-mann-ki-baat","15":"tag-suniel-shetty","16":"tag-suniel-shetty-actor","17":"tag-suniel-shetty-fitness-icon"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615592","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=615592"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/615592\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/615593"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=615592"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=615592"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=615592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
