Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to help you understand our clinical consultation and nutrition therapy process.
Standard diets rely on generic calorie cutting, shakes, or fad eliminations that often cause muscle loss and hormonal crash. Dr. Sumaiya's Medical Nutrition Therapy is prescribed by a qualified Doctor (BUMS) and Registered Dietitian (RD). It is formulated based on your diagnostic blood chemistry, liver/kidney function, and pathophysiology to reverse the biological drivers of disease (such as insulin resistance and chronic inflammation) using your everyday Indian home foods.
Yes, 100%. Over 60% of our clinical patients follow lacto-vegetarian or ovo-vegetarian diets. Dr. Sumaiya designs scientifically complete amino-acid profiles and low-glycemic vegetarian meal structures using lentils, paneer, sprouts, dairy, seeds, vegetables, and complex traditional grains without requiring foreign superfoods or meat.
Virtual consultations are identical in depth to in-clinic visits. Prior to your appointment, you submit your latest blood reports and medical history.
