DNA-Based Nutrition for Peak Athletic Performance
Stop guessing your macros. I use your genetic data to tailor nutrition for endurance, power, and recovery, exactly as I do for India’s top cricket and Paralympic athletes.
Since 2016, I have worked with the entire Indian cricket ecosystem, including both the men's and women's teams. We use genetic analysis to provide players like Virat Kohli with a scientific edge, moving them through their transformation zones by understanding their unique biological needs.
It's always a productive session with Bhuvneshwar Kumar, discussing his latest DNA insights and how we can fine-tune his sports nutrition. These regular check-ins ensure his diet and training are always aligned with his performance goals and genetic profile.
I had a great meeting with Ravichandran Ashwin, where we delved into his DNA report. Understanding his genetic predispositions allows us to unlock his full potential by personalizing his nutrition and recovery strategies for a long and successful career.
I was honored to host Gujarat Titans' assistant coach, Narender Negi, at my office. We had an insightful discussion on the critical role of personalized nutrition for professional athletes, and he affirmed that our DNA-based approach is the future of sports performance.
I had the opportunity to speak with the future stars of Indian golf about the impact of sports nutrition on performance. It was a great session organized by the Indian Golf Union, focusing on how personalized diet strategies can make a tangible difference in their game.
A huge congratulations to Kanav, the Eastern Amateur Golf Champion. His victory is a testament to how a personalized nutrition plan, tailored specifically to his DNA, can fuel success and provide a competitive edge on the course.
Congratulations to Sumit Antil for his incredible gold medal performance at the Paralympics. It is a privilege to support champions like him with nutrition strategies that are optimized for their unique physiology and athletic demands.
I'm proud to partner with brands like Greenbrrew that align with my philosophy of promoting healthy, science-backed choices. This collaboration reflects my commitment to providing trusted nutritional guidance to both professional athletes and the general public.
About Peak Performance for Athletes
We start with a simple saliva collection kit delivered to your home. Once your genetic markers for muscle fiber composition—specifically fast-twitch versus slow-twitch ratios—and your specific injury risk factors are sequenced, we sync your nutrient timing with your training intensity. This is not about following a template, but about matching your unique biochemical reality to your game schedule and recovery needs.
Decoding Your Athletic Potential
Most athletes treat their diet as trial and error. You change your macros, you watch your energy fluctuate, and you hope for the best. With nutrigenomics, we remove the guesswork. By analyzing your DNA, I can tell you whether your body is genetically predisposed to power or endurance, and how quickly you actually recover between high-intensity sessions.
The Science of Recovery
Inflammation is the enemy of performance. Some bodies clear inflammation markers efficiently; others need more recovery time between sessions. If you are pushing your body to the limit without understanding your genetic recovery speed, you are not just missing gains, you are inviting injury. My reports analyze your genetic susceptibility to tendon and ligament stress, allowing us to adjust your training volume before an injury happens.
Why Data Beats Trends
I have worked with the Indian cricket ecosystem and Paralympic gold medalists. The difference between an elite athlete and an amateur is rarely just talent; it is consistency and data-driven decisions.
What the process involves:
- Sample Collection: A simple at-home saliva kit (no needles).
- Genotyping: Lab-grade analysis of your specific gene variants.
- The Strategy: A 45 to 60-minute consultation where we align your diet with your training phase.
I do not care about the latest keto trend or supplement fad. I care about your VO2 max potential, your vitamin absorption deficits, and how your specific caffeine metabolism affects your sleep quality. Whether you are a national-level golfer or training for your first marathon, your plan should be as unique as your DNA.
