It was quite interesting to study what the centenarian eats in a day that keeps her active and healthy. Speaking to TOI, Rambai said, "I eat churma, dahi and doodh."

Talking about Rambai's diet, Sangwan said that she is a pure vegetarian who includes plenty of milk products in her diet. "Nani is particular about having about 250 grams of ghee daily and 500gm of curd. She also drinks 500ml of pure milk twice a day," she said.
As for whole grains, Sharmila Sangwan said that Rambai prefers bajra or millet roti rather than rice. She also maintains an active lifestyle, working in the fields and running 3-4 kilometres daily. Further, the food that she eats is grown in the village and thus is purely organic.
