Chirantani Bhattacharjee

Description

Greetings. I am Dr. Chirantani, a dedicated professional in the field of nutrition and health, holding a Master’s degree in Food and Nutrition. My expertise, refined over the past 8 years as a Certified Diabetes Educator, focuses on the metabolic intricacies of dietary management in relation to chronic conditions, particularly diabetes.

In my capacity as a consulting dietician at Apollo Clinic in Pune, I engage with a diverse patient demographic, each presenting distinct clinical challenges and dietary goals. My process begins with comprehensive assessments, encompassing medical history, lifestyle factors, and individual preferences, which facilitates the development of tailored nutrition plans that are both effective and sustainable.

I emphasize a holistic approach that transcends typical dietary recommendations. By educating clients on the biochemical impact of macronutrients and micronutrients on glycemic control and overall health, I enable them to understand the rationale behind their food choices. This includes detailed discussions on the roles of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, as well as practical applications related to meal planning, culinary techniques, and grocery procurement.

Moreover, I prioritize the establishment of a supportive therapeutic alliance, fostering an environment where clients can openly share their experiences and progress. Continuous motivation and positive reinforcement are integral to my practice, as I guide clients through their health journeys, celebrating achievements and addressing barriers along the way. My overarching aim is to enhance patients’ quality of life by instilling sustainable dietary habits that promote optimal health and well-being. It is a privilege to contribute to their transformative health journeys.
