BIOGRAPHY

I am Shabana, a clinical nutrition specialist with a Master’s degree from the University of Agriculture Faisalabad. My research, titled “Effect of goat milk on acetic acid-induced acute colitis in a rat model,” reflects my deep interest in medical nutrition therapy and its role in managing inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). I have professional experience as a lecturer at Gujranwala Medical College and as a clinical dietitian in a hospital setting, where I applied evidence-based nutritional strategies to improve patient outcomes. My focus lies in gut health, nutrient-inflammation interactions, and personalized therapeutic diets to support individuals with chronic gastrointestinal conditions.
