In 2012, Suman struggled with his weight and found himself at a critical health crossroads. With an alarming diagnosis of elevated cholesterol and high blood sugar, his doctor issued a stern warning: it was time to make a change. Determined to take control over his health, Suman embarked on his transformative journey, focusing on a simple principle. He said: “Our body is almost 70% of what we eat, 10% is driven by our mind, and the rest comes from exercise.”
His approach was centered on three simple yet effective principles: avoiding fried foods, minimizing carbohydrates and maintaining a consistent workout regime.
The results of Suman’s transformation journey were remarkable. Within six months, his weight dropped by 18kg and he regained control of his health. Today, at 46 years old, Suman successfully maintains a lean weight of only 68kg. This journey led to Suman asking himself the revolutionary question: “What if we could savour the rich flavours of India’s favourite dishes without using any oil?” Thus, ZOIL was born to prove that delicious food can coexist with health.
At ZOIL, it's about transforming how people eat. Suman envisions a world where health-conscious choices do not mean sacrificing flavour.
