What is a healthy weight?
A Body Mass Index uses an individual’s weight and height to measure their ideal/ healthy weight. Though it isn’t a real indicator of health, it allows a general idea of the excessive or deficient fat level of the individual.
- Underweight means a BMI under 18.5
- Healthy or normal weight means a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9
- Overweight means a BMI between 25 and 29.9
- Obese is a BMI over 30
Your BMI
The Indication for BMI Range
| BMI Range | Category |
|---|---|
| Less than 16.5 | Serverely Underweight |
| 16.5 - 18.5 | Underweight |
| 18.5 - 25 | Normal |
| 25 - 30 | Overweight |
| 30+ | Obese |
What are the foods to avoid?
It is not about which food to avoid but it is about moderate intake of everything. Having said that, if you have health issues it is always wise to avoid over indulgence of preserved, processed oily, ready-to-eat food, food with added flavors, and excess in sweet or spice.
What is a custom diet plan?
Health should never be compromised and so should not be the approach. Neither a staple diet nor the ever-emerging types of diet are an answer for all individuals. Each body is unique, obliged to its own metabolism and regulation.
A custom diet plan is a combination of various food types to provide a person with the necessary micro and macro-nutrients (Carbohydrates, proteins, fats, water, vitamins, and minerals) as charted to suit his/her lifestyle, habits, and preferences. Try a custom diet plan and it can never go wrong.
Who should approach a nutritionist?
You can consider approaching a nutritionist simply to upgrade your lifestyle and to experience a healthier and happier life.
You can also approach if you experience any of the following being muddle-headed/disoriented, disinterested, stressed, making constant harsh scrutiny and self-criticism of your body image, and if emotional eating, binge eating, or denying yourself food is your coping mechanism, consider approaching a nutritionist.
These conditions many a time are caused by an imbalanced diet and certain nutritional deficiencies. Eating disorders, Diabetes, HTN, PCOS, PCOD, and IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) are also a few medical conditions that need the assistance of a nutritionist.
A nutritionist helps you understand your metabolism and provide you with the right proportioned diet chart to help you attain your health and body goals thereby assisting you in gaining a healthy lifestyle.
Why is it necessary to reach out to a nutritionist / have a nutritionist’s opinion
It’s necessary to have a nutritionist’s opinion to educate yourself on the healthier options available and to curate a working plan for yourself.
The fast-changing environment imposes constant threats to living conditions and quality of life. Everyone is too busy to meet the deadlines, demands, and expectations, to realise long-term and short-term dreams and get food on the table. But does that food bring comfort and nutritional value needed for your own body? Bad food choices also affect your mental well-being. Together, they may cause many health issues including obesity, metabolic disorders, genetic disorders, stress, and even depression.
Food consumption that exceeds your needs and unbalanced food choices result in an unaligned mind, body, and soul. Any bodily discomfort that hinders you from performing a normal activity is considered unhealthy and needs your attention.
Each lifestyle demands a unique diet. A mindful consumption of food is of paramount importance like never before. A healthy mind and body help to build a compatible with a cheerful personality for a better social and personal life. Hence, it is essential to approach a nutritionist.
