Choose healthier local food options, says dietitian

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians should opt for equally delicious but healthier local food options, says a dietitian.

“It is not difficult to find food cooked in healthier ways. Instead of deep fried, go for alternatives like ikan bakar (grilled fish), soup noodles and chapati,” said consultant dieti- tian Indra Balaratnam from the Malaysian Dietitians' Association.
