SAJ BISTRO ON THE NEED FOR A HEALTHY FOOD INTERVENTION

As the world teeters on the edge of a health crisis, Saj Bistro speaks out on the importance of change especially in a fast-paced country such as Dubai.

Dubai, U.A.E.: May 2017

Hoping to instigate a change in food consumption patterns, Saj Bistro recently addressed the burgeoning health crisis that has gripped the world, including cities like Dubai in particular. The lebanese restaurant in dubai is a steadfast advocate in freshness where eating out is concerned, be it dining in, delivery or take-away. In-keeping with this principle, since its inception, the restaurant has been consistently sourcing the best possible ingredients on a daily basis.

Saj Bistro also drew attention to the fact that currently, some of the world’s most prominent diseases include cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity, all three of which mainly stem from poor food consumption. The widespread availability and convenience junk food brings, coupled with a relentless working lifestyle, have been cited as two of the main reasons as to why global health is declining at an alarming rate. For countries like Dubai that are quickening their speed more than ever, this is reasonable cause for concern. More and more people choose to simply ‘grab a bite on their way’, without fully thinking through the long-term repercussions such decisions bring. Saj Bistro encouraged the public to invest a little more thought into their health, and to opt for menus like theirs, which are focused on health as much as taste.

However, the lebanese restaurant in dubai also did state that an occasional junk food binge is forgivable: provided that the rest of the week, one pays close attention to their diet. Additionally, they pointed out that a combination of items such as salads with shawarmas for instance, is a well-balanced option if one wants to really take better control of eating out.

‘Not everyone has the time to whip up home-cooked meals on a daily basis, and this is something we understood when we setup Saj Bistro. The world has changed vastly, and it’s quite common now to see people pick up a quick and easy bite from anywhere, sometimes everyday. What they don’t realise is that your body is processing all of this food, and converting it into fuel; which isn’t very good fuel, and hence ends up stalling and in dire cases completely breaking the system down. Take your car for instance; if you keep pumping it with low-quality fuel that isn’t meant for it, soon enough it’s going to breakdown. Same concept here. As a lebanese restaurant in dubai that’s dedicated to remaining authentic, we think it’s essential that we do so whilst promoting good health.’ Manager: Saj Bistro
