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!
