We don’t blame you for a drop in your motivation to stick to your New Year health resolutions. After all, the first month of the year is done with and you have to be extremely committed to your wellness to truly make a change that lasts, and sometimes, you need a little bit of help. The health food market in India is growing by the minute with new and established businesses hoping to provide the country with nourishing and fresh food and produce to encourage a healthier diet. We round up seven names worth your money to achieve your fitness goals and make 2021 your healthiest year yet.
Farmery
While the brand may have started off serving fresh, unadulterated milk, the Farmery has gone on to expand their portfolio to include fruits and vegetables brought to your door from all over the country. Think strawberries from Mahabaleshwar, dates from Jaisalmer, grapes from Nashik and apples from Manali. Every item listed on the website comes with the details of the farmer and the farm it’s being sourced from, giving credit where it’s due and assuring you as a customer of the quality you can expect.

Berrika
Whether it’s lush berries you’re after for your morning smoothie or artisanal cheese from around the world, trust Berrika to meet your needs. Their fruits, dairy products and meats are sourced from the countries that produce them best—think hass avocados from New Zealand and Babybel cheese from the US—and are delivered right to your doorstep. You may not be able to travel to your favourite cities as yet, but you can definitely have your pantry stocked without needing a stamp in your passport. Berrika.com
Greenwise Agritech
One of the newest produce businesses to enter the world of indoor hydroponic farming, trust their monthly subscription plans to help you stay fit and eat clean. Mumbai-based Greenwise Agritech delivers nutrient-rich and pesticide-free lettuce, swiss chard, basil and microgreens every week to make sure you’re consuming the freshest greens with every meal, without having to step out and restock.

Danz
Contrary to popular belief, carbs aren’t always a bad idea, especially when consumed mindfully. Danz is a Mumbai-based bread subscription business that delivers freshly baked whole wheat and gluten-free breads—from focaccia to sourdough and even paos—to your doorstep. Their plans are completely customisable allowing you to curate your bread basket and decide how often you’d like to receive it. Danzfoods.com
Epigamia
A name that is synonymous with the term ‘greek yoghurt’ in India today, Epigamia is constantly pushing the envelope to innovate and bring healthier food to your table. Besides greek yoghurt, the brand also has smoothies, dairy-free yoghurt, sugar-free variants and ghee-based spreads as part of their roster. No matter your dietary requirements, there’s something for everyone. Epigamia.com
Farm 2 Fam
Berries make for some of the yummiest snacks and are a great addition to your morning—they’re rich in antioxidants making them vital to your internal health and that of your skin. Farm 2 Fam is a new produce business committed to providing you with all kinds of berries—blueberries, raspberries, mulberries et al—as the name suggests, straight from the farms to your table. We won’t judge if you decide to bake a mixed berry cheesecake instead. Farm2fam.in
