Healthwatch Nutrition Clinic

At 68 plus I was wanting to better my health and fitness and lessen the medications I was taking for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hypertension, and Cholesterol, as I was getting depressed; despite so many medications I was not feeling good about my energy or wellness state! My friends would say that I look tired and bloated with water retention always a common problem! But this 3-month health management program based on the personalized using functional foods has made me realize the importance of a good diet with regular exercise!

Yes, the change is visible both physically and mentally as the happiness I have experienced with the 12kg weight loss in 12 weeks is making me feel stronger and making me look and feel younger!

Dr. Zubeda's clinical evaluation of my health status and the medications that I was using and the revised prescription of a diet plan using foods available from the kitchen with an emphasis on seasonal foods has helped me lose 12Kg (92.6-80.6Kg) in 12 weeks with a 14 Kg (50-35.1Kg) fat loss- that friends the best thing in her program- educating me to work on muscle tone and bone health and not just do mindless weight loss ( what I was doing earlier on my own! )

Today I can proudly say that my doctor has reduced the medications by 50% lesser medicines and my health and wellness are at their best. Reversing Grade 2 Fatty Liver to normal in 12 weeks was a dream come true!

Pre-diabetes (HbA1C 5.8 to Normal 5.2 with normal blood pressure & better Cholesterol status, Moreover my bone health issues of rheumatoid arthritis & osteoporosis have reduced, and now I can walk better for longer time & pains are lessened too. Vitamin D & calcium levels have greatly improved better. My pains & stiffness of Rheumatoid Arthritis have almost been resolved today

I am happy to say that to be Stronger at 68 yrs and to stay independent till the day I breathe my last is my favorite tagline!

Surely recommend Dr. Zubeda to all my 60-plus readers of this review as She helps you understand your health status and get it to its best with positive counseling and lifestyle changes using sustainable diet plans!

I was looking for a qualified Dietitian with experience in the field of Clinical Nutrition and that is when I was referred to Dr. Zubeda Tumbi by my office colleague.

My complete Body Assessment made me aware about my health issues and concerns. At age 54, my Reports showed Uricemia, Dyslipidemia, Psoriasis, Grade 3 Fatty Liver with Central Obesity.

After 8 weeks of a Personalised Diet Program, regular counselling with Dr. Zubeda Tumbi and following her Healthy Diet Ideas, I could lose 13 kgs (from 100 kgs to 87 kgs) - a cake walk, my Liver is happy as the Fatty Liver Grade 3 is reversed to Normal Liver with healthier status of Liver Enzymes, Uric Acid Levels (7.6 - 3.7 mg/dL), improvised Vitamin D3 and B12 status, decreased Atherogenic Triglyceride and LDL Levels. The best part is normalising of Hyper-homocysteinemia which is again an independent Cardiac marker.

My Kidney function normalised with GFR up to 82 and Psoriasis lesions are healing too. I am surprised that the Diet Routine could be followed even with my hectic work schedule and late hours of work. With easy Workout Ideas of Dr. Zubeda Tumbi, I was able to find time in the midst of my work to improve my Fitness Quotient.

I had my own challenges at work but with Dr. Zubeda Tumbi's healthy and easy to make Recipes, I was able to balance my work, leisure and diet.

I am still on Dr. Zubeda Tumbi's Weight Management for Healthier Body Program and will want to reach my Fitness Goals. I urge that all those working men and women, who feel helpless about Fatty Liver and are terrorised about Liver damage and transplants, should take help of a Clinical Nutritionist for a Good Health and recovery.

For some individuals @ the age of 73yrs everything comes to a standstill. But I feel age is just a number. I am a retired entrepreneur with a history of medical conditions like blood pressure & Uricemia along with a history of slip disc & spondylosis from the last 40 yrs. I had constant complaints of painful back & knees. I was unaware what could be the cause of my complaints. My visit to a clinical dietitian Dr Zubeda Tumbi made me aware about my health issues & to my surprise my complete health checkup led me know that I have Bilateral Osteoarthritis , Osteoporosis (Bone thinning) & I also have a issue of Foot Drop since the age of 62yrs. I was not able to stand erect without a support or even walk properly. After following a holistic & sustainable diet routine I was able to lose 12Kg (98-86Kg) in 5 months with 8Kg of fat loss. I couldn't believe that my mean sugar had dropped from (114-99mg/dL) , elevated uric acid levels were now normal & my bone health was maintained with improved Vitamin D3 & calcium status. My liver enzymes have improved than before & I am no longer dependent on laxative for my motions. An unbelievable drop in blood pressure from 146/71/62 to 120/72/73 with no more breathlessness. I believe that at any age you can reverse your health status with the right clinical advice in nutrition from a qualified dietitian. I would like to quote to all my fellow senior citizens that the first step is to START & the second most important thing at any age is self love. I feep you can do wonders in your health journey at any age to be the stronger & fitter you.

My 60-plus years were giving me health issues that were of concern to my family so when my family friend Karishma referred us to Dr Zubeda Tumbi, a clinical dietitian who has helped my entire family with the right food combinations in simple healthier recipes. I am more concerned about the 3 drugs that were given to me for hypertension with a blood thinner & the sleep apnea machine too was not really making any impact on my health status.

Dr. Zubeda has a way of making a person feel comfortable with new food ideas so that one does not feel the need for processed unhealthy foods I am aware of how my body feels there is less need for medications which I was taking blindly over the years as I have a family history of cardiac diseases; bypass & high blood pressure. I was afraid that I would never go off my blood pressure medications but today I can proudly say that my medicines have gone down from 3 to 1 with a normalized blood pressure value of 120/77/63 mmHg.

Dr. Z.ubeda Tumbi's complete body assessment made me aware of my gut health (constipation), pre-diabetes, bone thinning (Osteopenia) along with low Vitamin D3 & B12 status.

I no longer need to take laxatives which I was taking for so many years. Following a simple healthy diet routine I was able to lose 4 kg with 6 inches loss on the waistline.

My sleep quality has improved tremendously & I have to no longer use the Sleep Apnea Machine. to add to my Improved urine output with improved vitamin D3 & B12 status. At 63 I feel more youthful, and energetic with no more joint pain, increased stamina & no complaints of headache & acidity. Slowly & steadily arresting my bone thinning with the right kind of supplements. I would advise all my 60+ plus friends to visit Dr Zubeda Tumbi to improve their overall health status & Say No To DRUGS and say YES to Good Nutrition.
