Food Med

Before I met Shruti maam, I was a 21-year-old 103 kg male individual who had absolutely no regard for proper eating, exercising and a healthy lifestyle. I was pursuing my Chartered Accountancy degree, and was always caught up with office on weekdays and studies on the weekend. Apart from the occasional footy 2-3 times a month, I never really had any inclination towards any physical activity. Whenever I was asked about getting it shape, I always used to blame my routine or defer it to my to-do list post my examination. Amidst all of my ignorance, I slowly realized the extreme changes in me – I was always tired, lethargic, exhausted and never in the mood to actively pursue anything. I did not have the energy to study with a fresh mind and on the inside, I could sense somehow all of this had to change. I was in my preparatory leave for my CA exams, when the pandemic hit and my exams got postponed. Because of the additional time I had, I figured it is better to work on this goal, and keep myself busy, rather than spend time in other activities.I was introduced to Shruti maam by a friend of mine who told me how her diets are and how she is personally invested in each of the client’s progress. What stood out to me most was that she wanted us to first put in some effort before coming to her for consultation. This shows that you are not just any client for her. She considers you one of her owns. Throughout our sessions, she always made sure that I was putting in the required amount of efforts. Any new goals were set only after achieving the existing ones. There was never a situation when I felt I had bitten off more than I could chew. I had my first consultation with maam on 8th May 2020, where I weighed 103 kilos. Absolutely nervous, it was her who made it clear to me that this was a Herculean task, and that only I could get that task done. This helped me a lot because I was not promised anything unrealistic, but rather a clear and precise roadmap of all that was expected of me. We had a 2 hour Zoom call, where maam spoke to me and my family, asked me about my daily food intake, told me what needs to be added and reduced, and ultimately what my targets were. I had a total of 5 consultations with targets to be achieved over 15 days that had different types of exercises, regulated meal times, controlled portions of eating food and sleep patterns. A notable thing which stands out in the diet plan is an emphasis on eating locally sourced food indigenous to our region and not imported food or additional supplements. This helped in reaffirming a belief in what maam had told me, because she told me something different to the trend these days that focuses on supplements or imported food for weight loss. Over the next 2 and a half months, I stuck to what maam had told me to do – regular exercise, controlled portions of food, regulated eating and sleeping – pushing myself to new limits each day. It was not at all easy. The first week was extremely tiring and exhausting as my body had not yet adapted to such a change. I also remember having to seek out new exercises to do at home because of the lockdown. Amidst all this, I distinctly remember how prompt maam was in supporting me and addressing any concerns that I had. Even when things were too hard, she always made sure that I was being made aware about why I am doing this. Gradually, the results started coming in – old clothes banished for being tight started fitting perfectly, an inclination for being active was created, eating was never out of control. I checked my weight a couple of days before my 22nd birthday in July and the unimaginable had happened – I weighed 83 kilos! A loss of 20 kilograms taught me a lot of things, but the key takeaway from it was consistency. I learnt over the tenure of the program that progression is better than perfection. Not exercising to my full potential on an odd day was okay, but not exercising at all was unacceptable. Having cheat meals after completion of targets was rewarding, but not doing what has been told is unacceptable. Trust the process and keep pushing. Finally, focusing on your own health and well-being is the best investment you can make for yourself. Exercising is the most underrated form of therapy, with eating food being the most overrated. Once that learning is imbibed in you, staying healthy is inevitable and exciting. In the words of Shruti maam herself, her aim is not to make me dependent on her consultation, but to make me an independent dietician for myself. I can confidently say that she has been successful in her endeavor, and I would urge anyone who wants to make change happen in their well-being to consult Shruti maam. Good luck!

I would like to recommend Dr Shruti for pregnancy diet counseling. I was with Dr Shruti during my journey of conceiving till delivering a healthy baby girl. She suggested a diet during my conceiving journey in such a way that I was able to lose weight (around 2-3 kgs as I had normal BMI) without disturbing any body parameters and was able to conceive successfully within two months only. She also suggested exercise regimes during that journey.

So I decided to consult her during my entire pregnancy.

I was diagnosed with border line GD during the second trimester but I was able to control it just by her diet.

I gained healthy weight around 9kg during my pregnancy journey without additional body fat. I am able to successfully lose around 7kg right after delivery.

Dr Shruti is really friendly and explains everything in detail. She always suggests diets considering your choices/preferences. She was also available over WhatsApp to answer my queries.

The most important thing I would like to mention is that I was so active during my 9 months 9 days journey of pregnancy ( although I am Vegetarian and I had milk aversion during pregnancy) but did not feel weakness at any point of time. I was able to do prenatal yoga( morning) and 45 min walk (evening) till the day of my delivery. My family members were amazed and they really appreciate Dr Shruti.

We are really thankful to Dr Shruti for making my pregnancy journey really enjoyable. As she says, We have started believing that "Food is Medicine".

I have already recommended her to my friends and family.

Thank you So much!!!

I am thrilled to share my incredible journey toward reversing diabetes with the assistance of an outstanding dietician. When I first sought professional guidance, I was overwhelmed by the challenges posed by my diabetes diagnosis. However, thanks to the exceptional expertise and unwavering support provided by Dr. Maheshwary, I have experienced a life-altering transformation that I never thought possible.

The dietary plan Dr. Maheshwary devised for me was nothing short of transformative. She emphasized the significance of whole foods, encouraging the incorporation of fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains into my daily routine. With her guidance, I learned to appreciate the benefits of mindful eating and the positive impact it can have on blood sugar management.

The results I achieved under Dr. Maheshwary’s guidance were nothing short of remarkable. Over time, my blood sugar levels stabilized, and with the supervision of my healthcare provider, I was able to gradually reduce my diabetes medication. Witnessing this gradual reversal of my diabetes was a testament to the effectiveness of Dr. Maheshwary‘s methods and her deep understanding of the intricacies of nutrition.

In conclusion, Dr. Maheshwary is a truly exceptional dietician whose expertise and dedication have helped me reverse my diabetes* * ** ********* ******** *** *** ********* *** ********* the support she provided, and the life-altering impact she has had on my health. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Maheshwary to anyone seeking to overcome the challenges of diabetes and achieve a healthier, more vibrant life.

For those who're reading, I'm Pratibha Agrawal, writing feedback from my husband's (Gaurav) Practo account.

I met Shruti on Practo itself. I consulted her post a miscarriage in my 3rd trimester. I was bit down due to my personal loss + excess body weight & loss of strength were my major issues then. Shruti helped me not only loose 7 Kgs in around 3- 3.5 months time, but helped me understand importance of healthy weight, good food intake, portion of food intake and so. With her meal plans, I discovered you can eat almost 8-10 times a day and still loose weight.

As I started following her meal plan religiously, I not only lost weight, but gained enough stamina to do workouts & be able to burn 500-600 KCal with my workouts only.

As a nutritionist, she earns my utmost recommendation. You only got to trust her and follow the plan sincerely, and be patient to get hold of her in getting the appointments for online consultation :)

I visited Shruti mam for my acid reflux issue resulting from hiatal hernia. She suggested meal plans which were very helpful. Also more than being dependent on her she suggests to understand your own body reactions to different food and learn to take it in right direction. The diet suggested was very easy to do and very local . Would definitely suggest her .

I am an ulcerative colitis patient (autoimmune disease of colon with no treatment at present) I have nutritional deficiencies and extremely weak body due to nature of my chronic illness. In these unprecedented times she was easily available for online consultation. Diets and nutrition need not be elaborate and So much can be done sitting at home with simple ingredients is what she taught me. My focus was on my low immunity and weakness with uncalled weight loss due to all physical and mental stress these covid days. She put me on simple diet balancing my illness needs with my body needs and I can see the difference in some weeks. It is highly motivating that a person like me with rare disease can find a helping hand and dream of living a decent life. Thank you so much Dr Shruti maheshwari 👍☺️

A diet means eating balanced food in the right proportion and in definite intervals, this

helps in healthy weight management. But mostly diet is perceived as eating less or

starving or depriving food.

My Diet along with Ms.Shruti was a perfect mix of right amount of essential vitamins,

balanced protein, Ghee in moderation and carbs in limits. And variety of grains so that

the body gets the best of everything, along with seasonal fruits

I got to eat variety of food in moderation, and few healthy tips helped me to decrease

my LDL level drastically. The end result was that I lost weight

Ms. Shruti helps us to understand our body clock, food limits, importance of variety of

exercise, and patience. This helps us to be in sync with our body
