I started my journey as a nutritionist with a BSc. And MSc. in Home Science, majoring in Food Science and Nutrition, from Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (College of Community Science). After graduating from OUAT in 2016, I began my career by working with Apollo Sugar Clinic as a dietician cum diabetic educator, having already completed internships with multiple reputed hospitals. My primary responsibility was to advise and coach people on the benefits of having proper dietary habits, analyzing the health problems occurring due lack of proper dietary habits and designing a variety of diet plans. I did this for two and a half years. I am also certified in an online nutrition course at Harvard University, entitled “6-week plan for healthy eating”; a course entitled, “Food and Nutrition” from IGNOU(CFN); a nutrition education program on basic nutrition and anemia under E-learning ICMR-NIN modules; a Post graduate certificate in diabetic education under International Diabetics Educator E-learning Program (IDEEL).
I also completed an 8-week certificate course for BAKERY and PATISSERIE conducted by the Institute of Hotel Management Catering Technology & Applied Nutrition, Bhubaneswar. Throughout my experiences, I felt the need to help people navigate the complexities of having a good diet. I also saw the need to help people, not only to achieve better health, but also to improve dietary habits based on taste, preferences and the prevalence of various medical conditions. I realized that having a good diet, maintaining proper health and fitness is now the global standard, and, being a dietician.
