Good Health is Everything!

Good Health is Everything! Nothing can be as hard or painful in life as helplessly watching your loved one wane away with illness despite all the wealth, advanced technology and medicines.

Over the last 20 years I have watched patients queue up at the waiting area of my Integrated Medical Center in Bangalore desperate for even a ray of hope from the Doctor, that all is going to be well and life would eventually get back to normalcy.

Patients battling cancer, heart conditions, alzheimer’s, arthritis, autoimmune disorders, Parkinson’s, dementia and even depression, all had two key factors in common – 1. Poor Gut Health 2.Huge emotional baggage leading to extremely toxic physical and mental states.

The first step of all their treatment was Detox – Gut first and then the mind. Simple logic: unless the system is cleaned up, the body is incapable of absorbing and acting upon the best of treatment.

Your gut is home for bacteria that not only turn the food you gulp down into nutrients, they also play a vital role in the way your entire body works…including building a stronger immune system, balancing your hormones and even the way you think and experience the world.

You have trillions of bacteria in your body, in fact, you have more of them than you have cells. Each one of them is responsible for a very specific function in your body. The ‘good kind’ are responsible to fight and keep the ‘bad kind’ in check. Your gut environment is considered to be ‘in equilibrium’ when good bacteria can multiply so often that the unhealthy kind don’t have space to grow.

Studies have found that if you have too much of a certain kind of bad bacteria you’re more likely to have Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative colitis, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Constipation, GERD, Acidity.
