Nutrition Insights & Media Features
I'm always looking for ways to share honest nutrition science beyond my clinic. Here are some of my thoughts on sustainable eating as featured in leading publications.
I was thrilled to be featured in the Deccan Chronicle, where I shared my insights on monodiets. I always emphasize sustainable, balanced nutrition over quick-fix fad diets that can carry long-term risks.
It was exciting to have my insights on the superfood makhana (fox nuts) featured in the Hindustan Times. I discussed how they are a powerhouse of protein, fiber, and antioxidants, making them great for weight loss.
I was delighted to be featured in Hello! India magazine, where I discussed five reasons to include berries in your summer diet. These tiny fruits are packed with antioxidants and act like warriors fighting free radicals.
In this Sunday Chronicle feature, I discussed the link between high consumption of ultra-processed foods and 32 different health conditions. It's a topic I am passionate about raising awareness for.
My quote in the Deccan Chronicle article on processed foods. I explained that while these foods are convenient, they are high in sodium and preservatives and lack essential nutrients, leading to various health issues.
Another snippet from my feature in the Deccan Chronicle, where I emphasize the importance of home-cooked meals over ready-to-eat products.
My final thoughts in the Deccan Chronicle article: small changes, like incorporating more whole foods and planning meals, can make a huge difference in your overall health and well-being.
It was an honor to be featured in the Deccan Chronicle, sharing my perspective on how ancient food wisdom, whether from Japan or our own Indian heritage, holds the key to modern wellness. My approach combines global insights with desi practicality.
About As Seen In: Media & Press
These features aren't just about press coverage, they are where I break down the science behind the food we eat every day. From decoding superfoods like makhana to explaining why mono-diets often fail, these articles capture the same honest advice I give my clients in their 1-on-1 diet plans.
When you read my thoughts in publications like the Deccan Chronicle or Hindustan Times, you’ll notice a recurring theme: I do not believe in quick fixes. My approach, whether in a magazine column or a personalized diet chart, is always centered on long-term sustainability.
What I Advocate For:
- Demystifying 'Superfoods': I frequently write about how common Indian ingredients—like makhana (fox nuts) or seasonal berries—are powerhouse options. You don't need exotic, imported ingredients to eat well. Most of the answers are already in your kitchen.
- Processed Food Awareness: A significant part of my work involves highlighting the health risks of hidden sodium and preservatives in 'ready-to-eat' foods. I help you navigate labels so you can choose real food, not just marketing claims.
- Desi Wisdom vs. Modern Trends: While I look at global nutrition trends—like the Japanese philosophy of mindful eating—I always bridge them back to our own roots. Whether you are managing PCOS, diabetes, or just looking to lose weight, ancient Indian food wisdom holds relevant, practical answers.
My goal with these features is to give you a roadmap for a healthier life that doesn't feel like a punishment. If you read something here that resonates with your health goals, let's talk about how to implement it into your daily routine.
