In her original post, Twinkle wrote about basic steps that worked for her - she advised her followers to include oats, quinoa and pumpkin seeds in their diets for three months. She told them to get back to her with results. To this, one person commented, “Ms know it all has now started giving diet advice.”

The user, Kamna Desai, identifies herself as a ‘Clinical Dietitian and Sports Nutritionist’ in her Instagram bio. Twinkle left a lengthy reply. She wrote, “Since you are a nutritionist why don’t you point out if the things I have suggested are not good sources of Iron or are harmful in any way?”

Twinkle continued, “I have been severely anaemic my entire life and with these simple changes have managed to reverse the condition in a short period with blood reports to substantiate the results. If something simple can help people then why not share the information. Either refute my points or take your cynicism and get off my page.”

Twinkle’s fans rose to her defence. One commented, “Why so much hatred.She has not even said that it will work for everyone. but she has suggested what worked for her...Go girl.”

Twinkle’s social media persona is well liked among her fans. She is known to be open with her opinions, and has in the past even criticised the ruling government. This facet was brought up in a recent interview between Akshay Kumar and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who admitted that he follows Twinkle on Twitter and is aware of her opinionated nature.
