How Anant Ambani regained his weight?

In a 2017 interview, Anant Ambani’s mother and chairperson of Reliance Foundation, Nita Ambani opened up about his weight gain problem and revealed that Anant had severe asthma and was given steroids to cure it. However, his treatment caused him to gain weight and made him obese. She revealed:

"Anant was highly asthmatic so we had to put him on a lot of steroids. He suffers from obesity. Hence, the treatment for asthma resulted in a lot of weight gain."

Effects of steroids on weight

In an interview with Times Now Digital, Manipal Hospital's Consultant Pulmonology, Dr Piyush Goel, opened up about the link between obesity and asthma steroids and shared how oral usage of steroids can lead to weight gain. Now, since Anant was highly asthmatic and was on steroids for a long period of time, there might be a chance that he regained weight in the last seven years due to medication. The doctor was quoted as saying:

“The judicious use of oral steroids can lead to obesity as a side effect. In asthma, we used to give inhaled steroids, and that is also in a very low dose which is going directly into the lungs where the problem of asthma lies. It is not going directly into the bloodstream so the chances of getting side effects because of inhaled steroids are very negligible and if I can say like that obesity can happen with oral steroids only when we give it in a very high doses and for a longer time.”
