How did Vinesh Phogat end up overweight? India's medical officer explains 100 gm reason behind Olympic disqualification
According to Dr. Paudiwala, the issue began with the athlete's usual dietary regimen. "Vinesh's nutritionist had recommended a total intake of 1.5 kg of food throughout the day to ensure adequate energy for the bouts. However, after three intense matches, there was a concern of rebound weight gain following the competition. To prevent dehydration, some water was administered," Dr. Paudiwala explained.
