“Just as everyone is different, everyone’s diets have to be different too…!!! That may be the reason you are not getting results.. as you are following someone else’s regime.” Well, that is my belief. I am Srushti Bothra and I am a Surat-based dietitian, consulting many patients successfully over the last many years. Many times people ask me ‘What is the need for a dietician? We are healthy and we eat home-cooked food only!” One needs to understand the role of a dietician in life to live a healthy and long life. There are many factors that play a vital role in keeping our bodies healthy and fit. I provide personalized diets based on many factors such as:

1. BODY TYPE: A person’s body can be classified into three types – a. ECTOMORPH – The body is lean and long. People with ectomorphic body find it difficult to build muscles. b. ENDOMORPH – The body is big and broad (pear-shaped in women). People with endomorphic body have a high tendency to store fat. c. MESOMORPH – The body is muscular and well-built. People with mesomorphic bodies have a high metabolic rate.

2. BLOOD GROUP: The blood group plays a major role in the way our body treats different types of food groups like fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. So, a diet rich in one nutrient may be best for one type of blood group and worse for others.

3. LIFESTYLE: Our lifestyle impacts the functioning of the body. Some of the factors affecting our lifestyle are: a. Sleep b. Water intake c. Frequent outings d. Food habits e. The time interval between two meals And many more things.

4. METABOLISM: If our metabolism is slow (obviously because of poor lifestyle habits!!), our body won’t burn the fat no matter what!! This is called hypometabolism and this can cause metabolic syndromes like Diabetes, PCOD, Thyroid, etc. if not taken care of in the long run.

5. PHYSICAL ACTIVITY: Some people get thin just by doing brisk walking and others can’t lose some grams even after a hardcore workout. (Unfair, I know!!). But this again depends on the factors mentioned above.

6. FAMILY HISTORY: It’s very IMPORTANT!!! Always tell your dietitian if any metabolic syndrome like diabetes / CVD (cardiovascular diseases) runs in your family; both maternal and paternal side. It will help you take precautions before it’s too late.

7. DIETARY HABITS: If you are Punjabi & following the Japanese Sushi Diet (after googling its amazing effects on the internet), you may lose some pounds but may turn crazy after following it for some time. You’ll crave delicious chhole-kulcha and the craving hormone leptin will hinder your weight loss journey.

NOTE: The FAD diets are not sustainable to lose weight. “As a dietitian, it is very important for me to check these all factors and then plot a personalized diet plan that my client can follow happily without disturbing their mind and body in an extreme way. And this is going to give them 100% result in getting the perfectly sculpted body.”
