I am an Engineer and working in the field of IT. I was struggling with multiple health issues such as poor digestion, stomach pain, poor energy, low blood pressure and was also an underweight girl. To handle these issues, I visited multiple Doctors and was not getting proper relief, one of my Doctors suspected that I am suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and suggested contacting a Nutritionist to deal with these issues with the help of scientific diet therapy. I was searching on Google and I got in touch with Nutritionist Himanshu Rai. He asked a couple of questions and diagnosed the problem very well in a scientific manner. After proper diagnosis, he prepared a scientific diet plan based on my current health situation. His diet plan was easy to follow and scientific. He eliminated some of the food items and put me on a Gluten-free diet and lactose-free diet. Since diet was easy, I started following properly, after some time, I started getting relief from these issues. My energy level came back, I gained weight, got relief from chronic digestive issues also. His diet therapy and approach were scientific and now I am enjoying my life wholeheartedly. Thank you so much!

I am a Psychiatrist by profession and whole-day I have to sit at clinic for patients. Due to my hectic life style, I was in the habit of skipping meals and most of the time to quench my hunger, I used to eat easily available foods near to my clinic, and those were JUNK FOODS. After some time, I was feeling my energy level was low and my weight was increasing and at the same time i was also suffering from hormonal imbalance. My Gynaecologist diagnosed and told me that I am suffering from PCOS and suggested me to lose weight. I got in touch with Thinkyou team, they checked all the parameters and planned a scientific and tasty meal plan pattern for me. I followed their diet plans with full dedication and after two months, I lost 11 kg of weight. That was quite shocking because, I was eating all the delicious meals and I was losing weight also. I was feeling energetic, even I was also able to balance my hormones. Thanks Thinkyou for helping!
