   To make healthy choices more accessible and affordable, it is crucial to address the barriers faced by Indian millennials. The Journal of Social Health and Diabetes highlights the need for subsidies and increased availability of healthy food options, particularly among low-income individuals. Collaboration between the government and private organizations can help ensure that healthy living is within reach for all.
