“Tangkhuls in Manipur: Lifestyle, Health, and Beyond” represents a compilation of essays aimed at filling the knowledge gap surrounding the health status of the indigenous Tangkhul tribe in India’s north-eastern region. This unique study delves into the lifestyle, physical attributes, and health conditions of the Tangkhuls people residing in both hilly and valley regions of Manipur. It casts a revealing spotlight on the intricate relationship between these factors and their profound implications for the community’s overall health and well-being. Despite the growing recognition of the significance of body composition in determining health outcomes, research on indigenous communities, particularly the Tangkhul tribe, remains scarce. This book seeks to rectify this gap by offering a comprehensive analysis of body composition, coexisting health issues, and their interplay within the unique context of the Tangkhul tribe’s lifestyle and traditions.
