Neha kept her promise with her father to become a dietician.  She is offering her services as a clinical nutritionist.

Neha Dua is the chief dietitian and HOD at Department of Clinical Nutrition & Dietetics, Rajasthan Hospital, Jaipur. She has been working in this industry for the past fifteen years.

Neha completed her master degree in Food and Nutrition from Rajasthan University. She did her internship from “Army Research And Referral Hospital”, Delhi. Apart from this she is also an inter-university swimming champion and a national level cyclist.

Describing her childhood, Neha says she completed her school education from Sophia Convent School, Jaipur. When she was small, her father had a sudden mild heart attack and went through an open-heart surgery. At the hospital, a dietician used to advise his father about the diet he should take to recover from the major operation. Her father was very much impressed by the dietician and asked Neha to be his dietician for his whole life. She says from there she was inspired to follow the path to become a dietician.

Speaking of her mistakes, Neha says  she believes that not pursuing a PhD in her specialty was a mistake.

When asked about her role models, Neha says she considers her seniors Dr. Himani Singh and Dr. Jaya Maheshwari as her role models. She says both of them taught her the basics of the field, improving upon her education and how to deal with the patients.

Speaking about her accomplishments, Neha says whenever her articles get published or any of her interviews are aired, her parents feel proud of her. This makes her feel accomplished.

In her spare time, Neha likes to do Zumba, jog and indulge in other sport activities. She also enjoys painting, and making a healthy palate.

Neha’s life mantra is “There could be thousands of excuses for not doing any work, but if you are passionate about just one thing, you will definitely attain it.”

Neha advises people, saying that they should not play with their bodies by following self-described diet plans. She says you do not have to starve; the key to a healthy body is eating the right food at the right time. She advises everyone to stay healthy by following a healthy diet routine because ultimately, you are yourself responsible for your body.
