<p>What if the root cause of most diseases isn’t just genetics… but how we eat, think, and live every day?In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dimple Jangda. A lifestyle medicine advocate from Harvard Medical School, Ayurvedic expert, and national bestselling author who has introduced the science of Ayurveda to over 1.85 million followers worldwide.Dimple’s journey into healing wasn’t academic. It was deeply personal.Born with epilepsy, she went through multiple surgeries as a teenager and even faced a cancer scare at just 16 years old. Those experiences eventually led her to question modern health systems and explore the deeper connection between food, gut health, emotions, and spiritual wellbeing.Today she works with celebrities like Juhi Chawla, Dev Patel, Masaba Gupta, and thousands of patients worldwide to help people understand how the body can heal when we align with natural principles.In this episode we explore the fascinating science of Ayurveda, gut health, and the mind-body connection, including:• Why gut health controls physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing• The surprising reason food allergies develop later in life• How antibiotics can permanently alter your gut microbiome• The Ayurvedic concept of Agni (digestive fire) and why it determines your health• Food combinations that Ayurveda says can become toxic to the body• Why dairy + fruit is considered one of the worst food combinations• How emotions like anger, grief, and fear affect different organs• The connection between karma, spirituality, and disease• Why aligning with your circadian rhythm can radically transform your health• The powerful healing potential of fasting and autophagyThis conversation goes far beyond diet trends. It explores the deeper idea that true health is created when the mind, body, and soul are in harmony.If you’ve ever struggled with gut issues, allergies, fatigue, inflammation, or simply want to understand how ancient wisdom can support modern health, this episode will completely change the way you think about healing.✨ New episodes of Desi Wisdom drop every Tuesday.Watch Next : https://youtu.be/TvJyVe8iaBQOur Podcast Guest: Radhika Agrawal (Author & Journalist)IG handle: @radhika.yellow Desi Wisdom SocialsInstagram → @desiwisdomwithkavita YouTube → @desiwisdomwithkavita Subscribe if you care about wisdom that actually changes how you live.</p>
