Steady, medically sound care for chronic conditions

For over twenty-three years we have been helping chronically ill patients with the help of diet modification and simple herbs — improving your quality of life so that you always have better future health outcomes. The people who have benefited have a great deal to say about the diet and the wellness program.

Chronic disease is rarely cured by a single prescription; it is managed, day by day, through the choices we make. Nourishing yourself correctly is the first and primary way to good health, a sharp mind and an energetic body. It also increases longevity and enhances the quality of life.

Although food provides us with energy, it does much more than that. The foods you eat control inflammation, balance blood sugar, regulate cardiovascular health including blood pressure and cholesterol, and help the digestive organs process and eliminate waste. Vegetables, fruit, oils and grains carry influential substances — antioxidants, phytonutrients, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids and fibre.

The principle behind food as medicine rests on this: our genes play a role in disease development and prevention, a poor diet is a serious risk factor, and nutrient deficiencies and toxins in low-quality food even affect gene expression. Although each person differs in how much their health is shaped by diet, a healthy, personalised diet can be used to prevent, mitigate or manage chronic disease — for nutrient deficiency and toxicity are linked to nearly all modern health conditions.

Based on your specific needs and any current imbalance of the doshas or illness, we emphasise the importance of —

• —Proper nutrition through proper food choices
• —Herbs, or herbal nutritional support — sometimes as simple as turmeric or amla, sometimes a proven Ayurvedic remedy, depending on what you need

Diets are planned only after a proper evaluation across many parameters, taking account of your previous weight-loss attempts, medical history, family history of disease and the issues you have faced or are facing. The program helps correct the irregularities at the elemental nature of the body, and helps correct the metabolism.

We are Ayurveda Doctors by profession, so your health is of foremost importance to us. The herbs and diet must achieve much more than sustaining life — with the program you feel better, more energetic and lighter from within, and your metabolism gets better.

We help you maintain the delicate balance of the body — you simply eat according to it. There is no rocket science; it comes down to simple things in your everyday diet, and you learn your own body's compatibility with food.

Dieting here does not mean eating less or crash-eating; it means eating healthier. A good diet is a nutritional lifestyle that promotes health — and when you are healthier, your quality of life and future outcomes are better.
