Indian Government empowering Exam Warriors

As the exam season is just around the corner, students all over the country prepare to meet the challenge. But in the midst of last-minute chaos and exam anxiety, one aspect can be easily forgotten: health. At #ParikshaPeCharcha2025, experts Shonali Sabherwal, Rujuta Diwekar, and Revant Himatsingka (Food Pharmer) will inspire and advise students, stressing the need to drink plenty of water and eat healthy food.

Both mind and body must be healthy in order to perform at the top when taking sitting exams. A healthy diet will improve mental functioning, improve concentration, and give one a general sense of well-being. Too much junk food, on the other hand, will cause energy dips, poor concentration, and substandard exam performance.

Rujuta Diwekar, a famous nutritionist, also emphasizes the importance of traditional Indian foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. All of these foods supply long-lasting energy, fiber, and all the needed nutrients to the body to keep students sharp and alert even after prolonged study sessions.

Proper hydration is just as crucial to function well on exams. Even slight dehydration is enough to disrupt cognitive processes, causing reduced attention, memory, and decision-making abilities. Revant Himatsingka, or Food Pharmer, promotes proper water intake during the day, emphasizing its effectiveness in keeping one's body and mind physically and mentally sharp.

Shonali Sabherwal, wellness expert, stresses the need for mindful eating in controlling exam stress. Eating slowly every bite will allow students to have a healthy food relationship, decrease anxiety, and improve their mental health.

Tips to keep healthy during exams:

• Begin the day with a healthy breakfast, consisting of whole grains, fruits, and nuts.
• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
• Add physical activity, such as a walk or some yoga, into your daily routine.
• Forget about junk food and switch to healthy foods such as fruits, carrot sticks with hummus, or oat and nut-based energy balls.
• Eat mindfully by giving each bite your undivided attention and paying attention to your hunger and fullness levels.

With #ParikshaPeCharcha2025 underway, students can benefit from practical guidance and motivation from such panellists. With a focus on wellness and good practices, students will perform their best at exams and embark on an iterative journey towards wellbeing. Good motivation and nutrition apart, they will excel well in exams and give their best in all that life offers them.
