Neha Nautiyal is a certified macro nutrition coach and freelance writer who helps busy women lose fat without giving up the foods they love, including the cultural foods they grew up on. Drawing on her background in chemistry, teaching, and her own lived experience, she teaches women to build simple, sustainable habits that fit real life. Her writing on food and health appears regularly in Real Simple (see link below).
Neha identifies as both American and Indian, having grown up immersed in Indian culture while navigating life in America. In her daily life, she speaks English, French, and Gujarati with her daughters, and Hindi also finds its way into the conversation. After learning how to feel strong and confident in her own body with the help of counting macros, Neha found her voice—and now she’s made it her mission to empower other women to do the same, helping them build habits that align with their values, their bodies, and their real lives.
