Research Intersts: My domain is Nutrition, Health & Food choice. Nutrition has been now considered as center for maintaining health and reducing risk of diseases. So, Intake of food, bioavailability and its link with human for maintenance as well as restoration of health is core objective of my research theme, role of nutrition throughout life cycle especially mother and infant health is priority. That includes prenatal & postnatal care of mother and new born, maternal health with special emphasis to micronutrient deficiencies and combating malnutrition in children via diet based strategies. Moreover, food oxalates and its link with kidney stones is also my primarily focus research interest too. That includes food oxalate content and factors affecting bioavailability of dietary oxalate and probiotic treatment for decrease of oxalate. Solubility of oxalate form food and its effect on exalate absorption as well as urinary excretion and formation of kidney stones are major area of emphasis.
