Healthwatch Nutrition Clinic

It is always great to be back to Dr Zubeda Tumbi & HealthWatch Nutrition Clinic with my health issues. I approached her again after so many years with my strong history of kidney and gallbladder stone which I just couldn’t bear the pain of and I was very much tired with the medications regarding the same. My complete biochemical assessment and sonography revealed more than my actual status that I had come for. I was diagnosed with Grade 2 fatty liver with enlarged liver size and kidney stones. My biochemical parameter indicated pre diabetes , uricemia , imbalance liver enzymes , hypothyroidism , low vitamin D3 , B12 and calcium status. In 4 months I was amazed to see that how nutrition and lifestyle changes can play a big role in transforming your health status. I lost 10kg of weight with 4kg of fat loss, my liver size is now normal with Grade 1 fatty liver from Grade 2. Now my blood sugar levels are within the normal range along with improved vitamin D3, B12 and calcium status. I am on high dosage of thyroid medications which had no impact on my thyroid levels but with Dr Zubeda Tumbi’s right nutrition guidance my thyroid levels are within the normal range. My cholesterol ratios are now normal from 5.4 to 4.9 and from 3.6 to 3.1. This proves that medications is not the only solution for chronic disease but with right medical nutrition therapy and lifestyle changes you can manage and reverse your chronic illness that you might be accepting and suffering from many years.

I am a working professional travelling up & down from Mumbai to Pune every week of the month. For me following a diet was equal to a restricted diet where I have to give up on food to improve my health. I could never accept the idea of following a diet due to my work schedule & commitments. In the last few years my health is gone for a toss which is directly impacting my work. That's when I made the decision to go & visit a qualified nutritionist who can give me a diet as per health issues & travelling schedule due to my work. I came across Dr Zubeda Tumbi who is a Clinical Nutritionist & with her thorough anthropometric , biochemical & nutritional assessment she made me aware about my health status in terms of bone , liver & kidney health which was severely affected because of high blood sugar levels & uncontrolled blood pressure. In 50 days I lost 7Kg with 6Kg fat loss which I had never imagined I would be able to do. But with her vast knowledge on nutrition, easy & sustainable diet ideas I could follow this plan like a cake walk. In just 50 days my HbA1c was (6 to 5.6%), Uric acid (8.5-6.6 mg/dL ) , GFR (54-103 ml/min/1.73sqm) , improved vitamin D3 , B12 , calcium status with improved HDL levels. For anybody who feels that with work schedule being hectic along with travels that you wont be able to follow a diet , let me break this myth for you. Dr Zubeda Tumbi & Healthwatch Nutrition Clinic is your one stop destination to improve your overall health status & keep your disease adversity at bay.

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.

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!

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.

I started with Dr. Tumbi's consultation 8 months ago and have seen tremendous improvement in all my health parameters. I had Fatty Liver Grade 3 which has been reversed and is currently at Grade 1 (mild). I was in the borderline diabetic range, which has come to 80 (fasting) without a single medicine! Thyroid and Uric Acid levels have come in the normal range - again another success that I'm very grateful for. B12 and D3 have shown significant improvement too. My weight has reduced by 21kgs and this has been a spectacular achievement for me personally. Hats off to her approach, knowledge and commitment.

The most significant change that I've seen in myself is in my energy levels, my confidence and the holistic wellness that I feel - physically, mentally and emotionally. I look forward to my appointments with her because it charges me up to achieve the next milestone in my journey. Her commitment towards my progress has been my biggest motivation, that keeps me going. She made me believe in myself - and for that I'm eternally grateful to her. I now have a wonderful relationship with my body, my food and myself.

Another great feature about her diets is the inclusion of local, seasonal, easily available & accessible ingredients. Her diets are wholesome, sustainable and balanced. I love her recipes and the ease with which her dishes can be prepared. Her practical tips - be it during appointments, or on videos/reels/shorts are absolute game changers! I recommend her to anyone who is genuinely committed to improving their health. She's a blessing from the Heavens!!!!

I visited Dr. Zubeda Tumbi in September when I was experiencing significant weight loss. She provided me with a comprehensive weight gain plan that focused on building muscle through a protein and fiber-rich diet. She emphasized the importance of including millets, which I hadn’t previously considered, and explained their various benefits for healthy weight gain.

Following her advice, I took some lab tests and discovered that I had prediabetes with an HbA1c of 6.1. Dr. Tumbi immediately adjusted my diet, cutting out all sugar while ensuring it was still nutritious and tailored to my health. Before meeting her, I thought whole wheat chapatis were a great option, but Dr. Tumbi educated me on the potential impact of gluten and sugar spikes, especially with my prediabetic condition. Within a month, I was able to bring my blood sugar back into the non-diabetic range and gained 2 kg of healthy weight in the process.

Her guidance on nutrition has not only helped my body develop in a healthy way but has also improved my skin health and restored my confidence, especially after dealing with anxiety. Dr. Tumbi is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and truly cares about her patients. I’ve also been following the healthy recipes from her YouTube channel, which are easy to try at home.

She went further by assisting me with my anemia issues and recommended tablets that have significantly improved my health. Additionally, she taught me yoga poses, including a modified squat that avoids putting pressure on my knees.

I’ve recommended her to my friends because finding a nutritionist who cares as much as Dr. Tumbi does is rare in Mumbai. She is truly dedicated to improving both health and overall well-being, and I’m extremely grateful for her guidance.

I had a routine blood test which threw up a very high fasting blood sugar level. I was alarmed since there was no incidence of diabetes in the family. Cholesterol levels were also high, but that had been the case for a while. The doctor patiently went through my history, and figured that it was a combination of diet (including alcohol) and lack of exercise.

I was put on a no-carbs diet, and with many tablets, with emphasis on exercise. The diet was reasonable since I could live without rice and wheat, and I could eat fish and chicken, so flavourful food was part of the diet. The tablets were numerous, but knowing they were supplements, and plant-based meant that I knew I wasn't inadvertently poisoning my system. And I started on an exercise regimen of cardio + weight training.

Happy to say that after just a month, my weight is down by 3kgs, fat lost was 4kgs, waist down by 6cm, and my fasting blood sugar levels are back to normal.

The idea is to strictly follow what the doctor says, and things will work out. I am actually enjoying the workouts, and I feel very good about myself.
