Write a ReviewMy wife was going through chemotherapy and had no appetite. Ms Abhilasha created a plan that focused on managing nausea and maintaining strength during treatment. She understood the challenges of eating during cancer treatment and gave very thoughtful practical advice.
My son has epilepsy that was not fully controlled by medicines alone. His neurologist recommended ketogenic diet therapy. Finding someone properly trained in this was difficult. Ms Abhilasha is certified in ketogenic diet therapy and managed the transition carefully. His seizure frequency has reduced significantly since starting the diet.
After my heart surgery I was told to change my diet completely. I was overwhelmed and did not know where to start. Ms Abhilasha sat with me and created a plan that fitted my South Indian cooking habits. She did not ask me to stop eating everything I loved. She showed me how to modify what I already ate. My cholesterol and weight improved at my next follow up.
Our baby was born very early and was in NICU. We were worried about everything including whether he was getting the right nutrition. Ms Abhilasha managed his feeding protocol carefully and explained to us how his nutrition needs were being met. She guided us on transitioning to breastfeeding at the right time. Her knowledge of NICU nutrition gave us so much reassurance during a very stressful time.
I had a high risk pregnancy with gestational diabetes. Ms Abhilasha guided me on what to eat to manage my sugar while still nourishing my baby. She was very reassuring and adjusted the plan as my pregnancy progressed. My delivery went well and my baby was healthy.
