Now that I am in my..ahem...proper adulthood age, things are starting to work a bit...differently.  The fall routine has begun and I know that my daily routine is pure madness and with that, I tend to ignore my own well-being.  This is why I had to get some advice from a professional!Anita Mirchandani, M.S, R.D, C.D.N received a B.A. from NYU and a M.S. in Clinical Nutrition from NYU. After completing a dietetic internship at New York-Presbyterian hospital, Anita became a Registered Dietitian in 2011.  Anita also maintains current fitness certifications in indoor cycling, kickboxing, group exercise, and personal training. She is also an AFPA certified prenatal and postnatal exercise specialist.We talk about growing up in Texas and in the 80s where portion control was not a concept, how we're both alive after eating Pop-Tarts 5 times a day growing up, launching India's first Greek yogurt and how Indians in general are starting to understand our common chronic diagnosis.   Anita also has a passion for  women’s health and intuitive eating and gives her top 3 pieces of advice to South Asian women about how to eat “well”.I ask her about different diets and why they don't work, what the deal is with "gluten-free", and why balance is key to every diet. I also talk to her about my own inflammatory issues and we talk about things that I need to adjust in my day-to-day routine.  Basically,  I am totally convinced that talking to a dietician can change your life.Follow @FitNutAnita for interesting updates of fitness and nutrition content and check out her site, www.anitamirchandani.com for updates on ARM Nutrition.
