About Me

“Your are only as HAPPY as your BODY is. REGAIN HOPE and HEALTH. I can HELP you.”

Hi! My name is Deepa and I’m here to help you regain your hope, health and balance through nutrition and support!

We may be connected by soul, but our bodies behave differently!

I know that I found no resolution to my health challenges in spite of trying so many things. Why was the best of the best unable to resolve things? Why were my labs within range most of the time, but I was still not “functional”? Even if you and I have the same condition, our approach to balance might not be the same. Your history and triggers are so different to my history and my triggers. Your digestion is unique to you. Your immune capability is different to mine. The toxins to which you are exposed are different to what I am exposed to. What is inflammatory to you is unique. The deficiencies to which you are prone to are different to what I may be susceptible to. How your body produces energy is unique to you. Your ability to breakdown and detoxify toxins is unique to you. Your hormones and how they work in tandem is unique to you, and how they do not work in balance and impact you is also unique to you. Has there been impact to your body structurally which impact you in a unique way? How well you sleep is unique to you? All of this has contributed to how “functional” you are today, at this moment. Functional Nutrition understand this “bio-individuality”. There is no one size fits all.

There is no Magicpill that can fix you. But there sure is a way to take charge and I can help you find the confidence you need to transform

I don't promise you the moon! But will help you transform your health!

Many would offer you a magical diet to transform not me.

There is no replacement for hard-work and baby steps to transform your health

Transforming your health is a journey not a destination .

I can relate to your challenges and understand the obstacles

I am one among you who has experienced the same challenges you are going through

I can empathise your predicament and prejudices in taking your health challenges by its horn.

Don't lose hope.. I am here to take you by hand and guide you on this journey .
