Optimum nutrition has been the focus of Rashmi’s personal and professional endeavors.

She believes in encouraging children to incorporate more color and variety to their food with local and seasonal produce, nuts, seeds, in addition to other food groups to benefit from the rich culinary diversity she has inherited.

A passionate nutritionist, Sujata loves to experiment with different food items including variety of grains, millets, vegetables, nuts, cereals and fruits.

She believes in introducing the concept of sense of touch, smell, color and taste in children by making them active participants in their everyday gastronomical experiences.
An interesting read on the topic Microbiome fueled the passion of collating information on the impact diverse food has on one’s Microbiome and how it could be beneficial in improving our health.
