Why first 1000 days is extremely important for my baby?
The first 1000 days — from pregnancy to the child’s 2nd birthday — are crucial for brain and body development. At birth, only 25% of the brain is formed; the remaining 75% develops by their 2nd birthday. Nutrition, emotional care, and mental stimulation during this time shape the child’s intelligence, immunity, and future health. It’s a golden opportunity to build a strong foundation for life.
How can I improve my chances of conceiving naturally?
What you feed your body – from mouth, ears, eyes & skin affects fertility outcomes. A holistic approach, i.e, focusing on physical, emotional, mental health helps your body feel safe, supported, and ready for pregnancy. Eating the right foods can balance hormones, support ovulation, and improve egg quality. When your body is well-fed and healthy, it’s more likely to welcome new life.
I have Thyroid / PCOD / Diabetes—can I still conceive & have a healthy pregnancy?
Hormonal conditions like PCOD, hypothyroid, and diabetes can naturally impact your hormones during pregnancy, sometimes increasing risks for both mother and baby—such as higher chances of miscarriage, gestational diabetes or high blood pressure, and delayed baby growth or preterm birth.
However, the good news is that these conditions can be reversed naturally—without medications via a holistic approach to support a healthy pregnancy for the mother & baby.
Does male fertility affect conception changes?
Yes, male fertility plays a big role in getting pregnant. Health issues like diabetes, obesity, thyroid imbalance, high cholesterol can lower sperm count, sperm quality and reduce sperm movement, making it harder to conceive.
A father’s health also impacts the baby’s genetics and long-term wellness. That’s why it’s important for both partners to focus on their health before planning a baby to naturally support fertility.
What is the recommended weight gain during pregnancy?
Healthy weight gain during pregnancy depends on your body type and pre-pregnancy BMI. Here’s a general guide:
Underweight (BMI < 18.5): Gain 12–18 kg
Normal weight (BMI 18.5–24.9): Gain 11–16 kg
Overweight (BMI 25–29.9): Gain 7–11 kg
Obese (BMI ≥ 30): Gain 5–9 kg
Gaining too little or too much can affect your baby’s growth and your recovery. For a safe and healthy pregnancy, consult a certified pediatric nutritionist to get a personalized plan tailored to your needs.
From which age a child needs a Pediatric Nutritionist?
The day a child starts to grow is the time he or she needs a pediatric nutritionist. This begins from day 1 of pregnancy till the child is 20 years of age. From womb to starting solids at 6 months to managing picky eating, allergies, growth concerns, or frequent illnesses—nutrition support can make a big difference. The earlier you build healthy habits, the stronger your child’s foundation for growth, immunity, and brain development, helping them enter adulthood gracefully.
Can I give water or food in the first 6 months with breastfeeding?
Breastfeeding is a natural way to build your baby’s immunity and help them adapt to the new environment. First 6 months of exclusive breastfeeding — no water, no food, just breast milk. From the 7th month, start complementary feeding & continue breastfeeding till the baby turns 2 years for best growth, immunity, and bonding.
Sanika Jadhav14/07/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been working with Nutritionist Riya for my muscle gain journey, & the experience has been amazing. What I loved most is that she didn’t put me on a restrictive diet instead, she helped me understand how to nourish my body properly while still enjoying my food. Her guidance is practical & sustainable aligned with my lifestyle. I've seen real results without feeling like I'm dieting. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for balanced, goal oriented nutrition support! Priyank Gogari30/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My fat loss journey with Riya has been a complete eye-opener. I lost 7kg & feel so confident today. Before this, I thought I knew what "healthy" meant, but I was mostly following myths and giving myself excuses. Riya didn't just give me a plan- she helped me understand what my body actually needs. Her guidance was never about strict rules, but about practical habits that fit into my lifestyle. I never felt like I was sacrificing anything because she made sure I enjoyed my food while learning how to nourish myself. One of the biggest shifts for me that was while travelling or attending social events, I learnt how to enjoy my favourites without guilt and stay on track with balance. Thank you, Riya, for helping me build a healthier, more conscious relationship with food. This has been one of the best decisions I've made for myself. I highly recommend Nutritionist Riya Dedhia for any health issue-her approach is simple, effective, and truly life-changing. Grateful for your support and guidance-keep spreading this goodness! Riddhi Niwate24/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m Riddhi, 21 years old & a nurse. In just 15 days with Riya Dedhia, I lost 1.5 kg! I’ve struggled with constipation for years, going once in 3 days — but within just two weeks, my digestion has improved drastically. I feel fresh, energetic, and more confident — even my hospital colleagues have notice the difference, which makes me feel even more motivated. What I love the most is that her plan is simple, easy to follow, and uses the same food cooked at home. I still have 10 kg to go, and I’m sure I’ll get there. I highly recommend Riya Dedhia to anyone looking for sustainable weight loss, disease reversal, or overall health improvement. She truly makes wellness achievable. Pooja Kshirsagar23/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I approached Riya for digestion issues, weight gain and knee and back pain. She explained to me what balanced diet is. Proportion of carbs, fibre and protein. Till then I was thinking that my eating habits are right since I was eating home cooked food. She even told me what kind of exercises to do and how much time. Her approach is holistic. Very patiently she listens to the challenges we face and provides solutions. With her guidance I am able to gain muscle mass. I am continuing my health journey with her to achieve my goals. I recommend Riya as a dietician and nutritionist to everyone who is ready to take steps towards a healthy life. Rutuja Barve18/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. “After my child’s brain tumor treatment, I was worried about his weak immunity and poor appetite. But with Riya Dedhia’s personalized nutrition plan, I’ve seen amazing changes — better energy, improved immunity, and steady growth. Grateful for the guidance, compassion, and science-backed care she brings. Highly recommend her to every parent looking to truly heal and nourish their child from within. She is best. Highly reccommend her as any one looking for pediatric nutrition for their child Tanvi Vidhate29/05/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m currently based in Norway and started consulting with Riya for my fat loss journey—and it’s been great so far. One of the things I appreciate most is how she explains the science behind everything: how the body works and why we make certain choices. It’s helped me genuinely understand and stick to her guidance. She’s also incredibly practical—sharing helpful tips for handling situations like travelling or eating out, which makes the journey feel realistic and sustainable. I truly believe anyone can achieve their fat loss goals in a healthy, lasting way with her support. Gouri Kovai14/05/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm Gouri, 53 years, from Australia. I reached out to Riya with the intention of losing weight, improving my eating habits, relieving sciatic nerve pain, and leading a more active life. Her holistic and personalized support made a real difference—she listened, encouraged, and guided me at every step. Thanks to her that in just months I’ve lost weight, my energy levels have increased, and my sciatic pain—after more than two years — is finally gone. As a working woman, I now make mindful, sustainable food choices without feeling overwhelmed. Riya approaches health in a truly complete way—addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Her support has empowered me to take control of my well-being, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone ready to transform their health. Anjali Gupta30/04/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I consulted Riya for my 1.5 year old daughter, Vihaa. She was a picky eater, often rejected meals, and relied mostly on snacks or breastfeeding. She wouldn’t eat a full meal and was sometimes clingy, cranky, and irritated. As a new mom living outside India, it became very challenging, but Riya was there to handhold me. With her support and a different approach to feeding, Vihaa is now improving. I highly recommend Riya to every parent looking for a pediatric nutritionist. Ulka Kulkarni29/04/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter Kimaya was extremely underweight & had stunted growth when we met Riya. With her constant guidance & regular follow-ups over the last 2 years, Kimaya has caught up in both height & weight. What makes me happiest is the habits Riya has instilled—Kimaya at the age of 10 yrs, now makes healthy choices on her own, whether it’s in the school canteen, at birthday parties, or while traveling. As a full-time working mother, it’s tough to monitor everything at home—but Riya’s consistent, meal-wise follow-ups helped Kimaya learn how to prepare & complete balanced meals independently. We recently went on a trek, & Kimaya had amazing stamina, energy, & immunity. Even when we go out, she reminds me to carry her fruits & nuts— finishes them without needing reminders! She now takes care of her health on her own, & that’s such a relief as a working mom. Investing in her foundation years with Riya’s support has truly been the best decision ever! Bhaddra S Nahyak22/04/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm Bhaddra from Qatar, as a first-time mom in a nuclear family, I had many concerns about my 1.4-year-old son’s nutrition—especially calcium, choline, and omega intake, since we’re vegetarian. His skin had become dull, hair rough, and he had dark circles. After consulting Riya, I felt so confident. She truly understands every concern and gave us a simple, customized routine that we could easily follow. In just 10 days, we saw visible improvements—my son is accepting to learn balanced diet at such a young age. Her daily hand-holding gives me so much clarity and confidence as a parent. Riya’s support and deep knowledge so we’ve signed up for a 1-year holistic journey for my son with her. I recommend every parent should visit a pediatric nutritionist like her!
