Hey! I’m Lovely Ranganath!

Let me help simplify and declutter the world of Nutrition!

🤓MSc Nutrition
🤓Licenced-Dept. of Health, Dubai
🤓Experienced-(20+yrs) Healthcare & Hospitality

​

'Passionate about Nutrition' best describes who I am. It is this passion that has been the driving force for me, the past 20+ years, to successfully explore various work industries from Hospitals (Mediclinic Welcare & Al Zahra Hospital - patient care) to Hospitality (Dubai World Trade Centre – Exhibition and Convention centre - retail, private and event based catering).

 

F.E.A.R – Face Everything And Rise is my life philosophy and a balanced self-care approach to health gives you an edge to do just that. This core belief has helped me explore various opportunities from developing and managing a successful meal delivery service for the biggest catering org’ in the UAE to developing corporate employee wellness programs, creating content for social media, contributing expertise to local newspapers, magazines, radio & television, Clinical Dietitian to the DWTC Field Hospital initiative to combat COVID-19.

I see huge gaps in advice offered and ground reality. Not everyone wants to do calorie counting, plenty who don't like butter coffee, not everyone can afford organic produce or have access to avocado or afford a celebrity coach!

​

I am here to help you see sense and navigate your way through all the nutri-nonsense, the fads and the cons all of which gets in the way of genuine healthful habits.

​

Qualified? Oh Yes! And the story begins from my school days. So definitely not a ‘hobby Nutritionist’!

​

FUN FACT : I actually opted for Nutrition, in school, to get away from the ‘complicated relationship status’ with Maths but looking back, i am truly glad it turned out to be a passion rather than a temporary escape route or career!

BSc was a breeze and a lot of fun!

​

MSc was life changing because that’s when I sensed a lot of real world issues like environment, financial security, food security & housing, etc all of which impacts human health and food choices.

#learningneverstops - Nutrition is my true calling and the more i understand it the more i feel i need to learn if I am to continue empowering and educating you.

​

Licenced? Definitely! Been a Licenced Clinical Dietitian with the Department of Health, Dubai since the late 1990’s.

​

But, who am I Really? Another human managing different roles -  a daughter, a sister, a friend, a wife, a mother, a colleague, a neighbour & i’m also that person who simply loves nutrition and feels like a Superhero everytime I am able to educate and empower others from being misled by so called social media gurus and influencers, through this little space of mine.

​

As a Nutripreneur, I decided to combine nutrition & helping people (two of my biggest passions) into interactive experiential workshops through which I will be able to help larger groups of people (chefs, parent, teens, older adults taking care of their parents, etc) and also start a sort of ripple effect in the community with like-minded people who have been Nutriproofed by me. 

 

I hope to fill the gap as it is not easy for the common person to connect the dots considering the fact that we live in an era where even AN EGG(??!) can have followers! Over the years, my MSc gave me a strong foundation to human physiology, biochemistry, diet therapy, etc. My 19+ odd years of working experience gave me the understanding of how deep human behavior is connected to food. My evolving life cycle and personality exposed me to various schools of thoughts in Nutrition from functional to holistic, integrative etc. Allopathy, ayurveda, homeopathy have all crossed my path. Pseudoscience? Yes been there as well😅
