Today’s edition of Anandabazar Patrika carries an article on the health challenges of night-shift workers, featuring my inputs. The core issue is —a misalignment between lifestyle and our biological clock. I often remind my patients—while you can’t change work hours, you can control what and how much you eat. Key tips: balanced meals, fixed timings, no mindless munching, limited caffeine/alcohol, proper hydration, and a minimum of 7 hours of sleep. Credit to author Nabanita Dutta for effectively weaving these points into the piece.

Today's edition of Anandabazar Patrika features an article debunking the myths of "Detox" drinks and diet programmes, based on an interview with me.
Special thanks to author Nabanita Dutta for shedding light on such an important issue. She did a fantastic job summarizing our conversation and capturing the key points with clarity.
I hope readers find it useful, and think twice before falling for detox fads and the false claims surrounding them.

Was invited to speak on the nutritional and health benefits of local Neglected and Underutilized Species (NUS) crops and their potential role in promoting sustainable nutrition. An interesting and timely topic, especially as we look to diversify our food systems in response to climate and health challenges. The session, held at the Organic Haat Newtown, was organised by and a part of an initiative by DRCSC India (Development Research Communication and Services Centre), which is currently working on 9 such indigenous crops.
Courtesy and thanks to Dr. Pallab De for the invitation.

Feel honoured to receive the Award for "Excellence in Nutrition (Private) Practice" from the Indian Association for Parenteral & Enteral Nutrition, announced at the IAPEN India Clinical Nutrition Congress, Varanasi last month. I couldn’t be there to collect it in person, and I’m truly thankful to the conference committee for sending it over.
This recognition from a leading national professional body means a lot in a time when social media reach outweighs professional expertise. Thank you to India for acknowledging my commitment to evidence-based practice in a field increasingly flooded with social media fads, trends, and pseudoscientific advice. My sincere thanks to Doctors who always support my quest for scientific rigour in my practice by referring complicated cases.
