Profile Summary

I am a postgraduate in Food Science and Nutrition with hands-on experience in food product formulation, R&D, and quality evaluation. My expertise lies in developing functional foods, premixes, and nutraceutical blends — especially those focused on diabetes-friendly solutions, natural sweeteners (like stevia), and antioxidant-rich ingredients. During my academic research, I worked extensively on storage stability and quality parameters of packaged juices under different temperature conditions, performing detailed analysis of pH, TSS, TTA, sedimentation, antioxidants (DPPH, TPC), and ascorbic acid. I’m also trained in sensory evaluation techniques and am familiar with regulatory frameworks like FSSAI. My services include: • Product Formulation & Optimisation • Functional Ingredient Research • Nutritional Analysis & Labelling • Product Evaluation & Shelf-Life Testing • Scientific Writing and Research Support I am passionate about creating evidence-based, consumer-accepted food products with a focus on innovation, health, and sustainability. Let’s collaborate to bring your product ideas to life with scientific precision.
