my story

Since my childhood, I always wanted to be a doctor.... not just any doctor, but a cardiologist! I wanted to help people lead healthy life and help people live longer. However, God had a different plan for me :-)
I landed in an engineering college and that dream of becoming a doctor remained unfulfilled. I got a seat the following year into a medical college, but I had decided to pursue engineering, however the doctor bug was still in the mind.
Gradually, I started climbing corporate ladder in the IT industry and just around that time my father underwent a bypass surgery. I was with him in the hospital for 15 days and I was shocked to see tons of patients walking in and out of the hospital. I had multiple discussions with the doctors and realised that almost 70-80% of these patients landed in the hospital due to poor lifestyle and inadequate food habits.
My quest for healthy living began at that moment. I realised that lifestyle modifications and healthy food habits can help us prevent these lifestyle diseases. I started reading various books & articles on preventive measures to have good health. I am a firm believer that what we eat is what we are.

After working in the IT industry for 15 years, I called it quits and decided to pursue my passion for health & nutrition. I feel developing right healthy habits need discipline and guidance to continue them for a longer time. I am able to influence my family to make healthy choices and help many families around me live healthy lives.

Today I feel proud and happy to get a thank you note from a friend or an acquaintance, who had got health benefits because of my recommendations. Finally I am able to live my childhood dream of helping people live better life, healthier life :)
