No cholesterol problem, but I do have gallbladder stone.
No, but good cholesterol check, probability. Okay, is your sleep—

And high stress and kidney function impact. We will discuss in our thing also, but 2-3 things which you can do, TK, is— wait, we did not admit only everybody. Good evening. So 2-3 things which you need to do is, one, I will give you some tests which you should get done. In our one-to-one consultation. This is this report, right? One is elimination diet continue, and then one may discuss, but you should continue it for some time. Over a period of 3 months, otherwise it will take a toll on your heart health. Sympathetic dominance. And good thing is, so this LIFES test cost you ₹500 every time. Okay, it is very reasonable. So 3 months, okay, so that we know whether we have improved that or not. Sleep meditation, because your sleep quality is still not as good as I would want it to be. Okay, so you should get into doing Yog Nidra in the morning or in the afternoon, and at night you should do sleep meditation, which could be, you know, uh, Louis And you download that and do that. Yeah, please send it into the group. Okay, but do that, right? Yes, perfect. So who else is there? Shubha, Joshi, Vakar. Vakar, where has Vakar gone? Yeah, hi Vakar.
Hi, how are you?
I am good, how are you?
I am feeling great, like bloating has gone away.
Wow, okay.
My weight has reduced.
How much?
Around about 3.5 kgs.
Wow, all these ladies are going to hit you hard, boss.
One problem is that my energy level is down, like I feel a lot tired.
That could be the case. And it's after introduction, then one-to-one I will let you know what is the case, because after introduction I will exactly know if that is the reason or not.
Okay. And one more problem is that I get a lot of cramps and numbness.
Numbness because you are deficient in magnesium and vitamin B's. Did you start magnesium D3?
I haven't started. I said after 1:1 I should start.
Okay, perfect. That's a wise idea. But it is only showing up. Supposing this is a line, how can you make this small?
So what's which way?
I don't know. You can't break it, you can't cut it, and I have told you that you have to make it small. You can't bend it, you can't cut it, you can't bend it. How will you make this line small?
I don't know.
No, you are smart. You will have to think. Mental health be better. But tiredness is because of the deficiencies, right? You were not absorbing any nutrients in your body. Tiredness will go away in a week. But what's the way to put this line small is you put a bigger line in front of it.
Okay, common sense.
Yeah, this is a smaller line, now there's a bigger line, but this has become smaller. Yes, so that is what has happened with you. Belly bloating, heaviness was such a big line, right, right, that you never realized deficiencies or the problems. Because it was a bigger line. Right. Okay, so now we will work on your deficiencies and you will see a marked change in it. I saw your report.
Okay, which one, the earlier one or today's one?
The earlier one. Today's one, I will— I actually takes time to see it. So, Vakar, I have 2-3 questions for you, if I may ask you. Do you smoke?
No.
Okay. And, uh, do you feel any aches and pains?
Yes, a lot.
A lot. Okay.
Because I play tennis, but when I'm playing tennis, my whole body is paining.
Not from my body strength. Any change, any symptom you feel?
Not now. Not now. And I sleep like I, I sleep a lot. I want to sleep less, but 8 hours is also not enough for me.
Ah, 8 hours is also not enough for you. That I can see. But Paki, so you are 60% almost sympathetic active. Now this is ridiculous because— No, no, but my nature is like that. But okay, so see, the most precious thing you have in life is your health, right?
Right, absolutely.
I don't know, but today, you know what happened? I am a part of a very interesting group. Okay, um, I'm an MBA from IIM Lucknow, so these are all business people there. So a 45-year-old guy died today, but the challenge is now Which is, which is very ridiculous, very, very ridiculous. And I don't do it purposely. No, no. Any habit which cannot be changed? Tell me one habit which you cannot change, like the stress. Why?
I know nothing will happen, but suddenly I feel tensed up. Might be I need to do more yoga or something like that, meditation.
Or might be you need to join my one-to-one 6-month program, right? I'm not— I'm not kidding, I mean it. Because sympathetic tone, And that is actually what has come in your report. Sorry, so very interestingly, you've come out as a very optimistic person but a stressed person, right? Okay, very optimistic person but a stressed person, which is not a great combination to have. Orthostatic, uh, balance. And, and yes, second, oxygenation. And that is again because of your high stress. Can you, uh, Can you sit straight and take 3 deep breaths? I'm just waiting for other people to do. I thought let me do one-to-one with them. I can't see your abdomen, so you are doing chest breathing right now. Everybody please watch him. This is important for all of us. Yes. Okay, great. Who observed what Vakar was doing when he was breathing? Who will tell me what was he doing? His chest was raised and you could feel it was an effort. I just could feel the chest being raised. Ah, Vakar, your oxygenation is as good as it would be for a smoker.
And how to improve on this?
Ah, and you are breathing in a very sympathetic way. So what you will have to do is you will have to visit my YouTube channel, Food, Medicine and Lies. There is a video, Exercise for Diabetics. Okay. I'm going to share a link after today's meeting with all of you. In on first half of Thursday and first half of Friday, you can book your 15-15 minutes consult with me on that link. Okay, okay, because if you are playing And you are so high on sympathetic and so low on oxygenation, and you have a leaky gut, mental health and tumor, probability, and very interestingly, 10 people leaky gut, and of course symptoms match, but I was very amazed. Okay, yes. Are you a hypertensive worker? Not as such. Perfect. And when have you got your BP check last?
It was okay, like almost say 1 month ago.
Okay. And ghar me koi family history heart disease ki hypertension ki?
Heart disease, both my parents.
Ah, both your parents, right? Just because you're saying you're not a smoker, hypertension cut out. Sorry, if we set this right and stress right, everything will get reversed.
Well, I can't take a complete breath.
Ah, because, because So that is the challenge. But I'm excited to do one-to-one with you, Vakar.
Okay, thanks a lot.
Yeah, anybody else who has seen some change in the last 3 weeks? Because you know, last class, yeah, tell me, have you gone, have you gone through my, uh, life report? I don't know. So actually, my life was discussed. I thought, let me invest time wisely. We will— ma'am, 3, 4 days back, 4 days back, 4 days back. Can you check my. Ma'.
Am?
No, no, no, no, no, no. We are not doing this. We are not doing this. We will do this when we have our one to one. Tk. We are not getting into this. I want to share know your experiences. Nidhi. Yes, ma'am. I've read your report. You also book your one-to-one with me?
Sure.
Okay. Your report has some very valuable inputs. Yeah, right.
Okay.
I feel like when I start this course, okay, I lost 2 kg. Wow. Okay, perfect. Very good. But before that, I just want to hear your experience.
Ma'am, this is Rakshali here.
Yes, Rakshali.
Ma'am, when I started the— after starting the program, uh, I'm feeling much lighter. Like, you know, my aches and pains have been less. But for the past 2 days, I have started with all the supplements which you have told me. I've started with my omega, my MGD3, and the zinc, and one more, the probiotic. But with that, last 2 days I'm noticing that I'm feeling a little pukey and I'm feeling like I'm having acidity.
Ah, so zinc, jinn pe logon me deficient hota hai, unko soup nahi karta hai. Okay, I've just taken—
started 2 days.
And second, fungal infection. So, uh-huh, quite a lot of input there, a lot of work you have to do. SNE yoga. Okay, okay. But elimination diet is the start, and good you've done it, and you're feeling lighter. But zinc, probiotic.
And, um, ma'am, this, uh, supplements, we have to take it twice a day, all the supplements?
These ones, yes, which I've written. B12 and D once a day, twice a day.
Uh, I've taken— I've started with this MGD3 twice. So no, for start I just started with once a day. All the tablets I'm just taking once, but according to your prescription it's twice a day.
I will give you the right dose. You have the authority to do what you want to do.
Okay. And one more thing, uh, is, uh, you know, uh I just feel like, you know, initially I was feeling very, very light and all that, but now I'm again noticing that I'm feeling fatigued and I feel breathless when I speak.
I know. So we will discuss in one-to-one. Okay. Okay, you'll be all right tomorrow, but you might not be all right tomorrow after introduction. Okay, anybody else who wants to share something?
Ma'am, yesterday— Monali here, ma'am.
Hi, Monali.
Yes, yeah, yesterday I was quite bad, like I told you. I think the quinoa and the palak both together doesn't suit me. And sometimes I feel when I have quinoa, I feel little more heavy, you know, I don't feel that lifelike. And plus I had the palak, and palak had, uh, before a little irritation, uh, even before I started the diet.
So I think I mixed the two in one day, and that's why one is, when you have leaky gut or any symptoms of gut, you have to avoid it. So that pallak irritated you once, you definitely have to avoid it for 3 months. Okay, don't keep trying again and again because you keep hurting yourself again and again. No, then there is no point.
Correct. Yeah, I was looking completely fine in the morning, so first like I thought I must be having some infection, but then absolutely Absolutely okay in the morning. There was no pain or anything. It's just that there was like—
yeah, because first time they go, once or twice loose motions are not bad, just because sometimes the gut is just readjusting to the new microbiome. Okay, okay. But don't take panga with the gut. Okay, if I would have been in college, so I would have said, my panga, dangai dangai. Right, I'm from Amritsar Medical College, right? Because gut has a single layer lining, single cell lining. Okay, very, very delicate, so you can't mess up with it. Okay, right, perfect. Anybody else who wants to tell me something?
I've lost 3 kgs and I'm feeling very good.
Wow, wow, wow! So all of those who have lost more than 1, 1.5 kgs during these 3 weeks, please remember, inflammation and infection, tiredness, because diet calorie restriction, 8 kilos Anybody who has lost more than 1 kg in 3 weeks? Uh, ma'am, I have had some infection. How much?
I have lost 3 kgs in total.
Wow, Tina!
Yeah, so, uh, when I joined your program, my weight was like 68.5, and right now it is like 65.8, 65.9, 65.7.
So like very good. Wow, Nidhi, we have to keep a note of people who have lost more than 3 kgs because they will be a part of the YouTube live next Friday.
Also, ma'am, I wanted to ask you, like I told, I mentioned the group also, like when I, uh, so I started noticing that, uh, whenever I have dal, like any kind of dal, even moong dal, which is the lightest among all the dals, I feel bloated. So I consuming it.
Very right.
So, ma'am, what is cheese?
Like, apart from dal, legumes maybe?
Uh, ma'am, rajma is my weakness. Okay, so, uh, okay, so, and, uh, like, till— shall I avoid dal like for the entire life?

Okay, yes. Anybody else who has lost more than 3 kgs?
Uh, ma'am, Tina this side. So I told you I've lost weight, but apart from that also I wanted to mention one more thing.
So I used to have severe headaches.
I used to take Serotonin at least twice in a week, at least, sometimes even more than that. And, uh, it's been since I've started this program, I haven't taken single Serotonin because I've never felt a headache ever since I started, not even single time. And I was so— I was thinking about it today only, that when was the last time I took Serotonin? Because And then I was asking myself why I haven't taken Seredon. Then I realized because I haven't had a headache.
Right, very sweet. So you know what, such sharings make it worthwhile for me to, you know, to focus on group programs and do such things. Because this is huge, Tina, because Seredon, headache, quality of life.
It used to make me restless and, you know, like, um, energyless. Like, I, I was not— like, I used to not feel like doing anything else. So I used to take one pop, one Seredon, and then, you know, go ahead with the rest of the day.
Wow, wow. Oh, sweet. And I— oh, and I remember, Tina, you were asking me whether this program will benefit you or not, right?
Oh yes, I asked because I was confused.
I know. Yes, I will request all of you to switch on your cameras. I want to take a photograph of all of us. Camera switch on. Yes, Neha, Sandhya, Bhavi, Mridula, Tina, Aparna, all of you please, if we can have our cameras on. Just a minute, I'm going to add Nilesh also in the group. Yes, perfect. So one camera is still not on. Two, A and H. Yes, so one camera is still not on. I'm gonna share this in the group so that we remember we did something like this. Yes. Anybody else who lost more than 2 kgs? Me also, Harvinder. Oh, how much have you lost, Harvinder ji? Very good. And how are you feeling? Very nice, very nice. So great. So I'm going to wait till tomorrow, and I'm going to invite 5 people with me on YouTube Live this Friday at 5 PM, okay? And we are going to just talk about what we have done and share whatever you can openly. But there are many people outside who are not even aware. And the purpose of that YouTube live will be just to share with people how we have benefited, so that at least they start finding solutions for themselves. Okay, so anybody who will not be able to come at 5 PM on YouTube, do let me know tomorrow. Only. I'll send a message to everybody. Yeah, great. This week is going to be the most hectic week for me, I'm sure. Because the moment you are going to introduce foods, if you are allergic to foods or you have leaky gut, your body is going to scream and cry and show me chai ki baat. Yes, this is Anuradha here. Hi, can I just leave, uh, the meeting because I'm not able to hear you? Will you please allow me entry again? Yes, yes, please, please, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hello. Hi, namaste. Thank you. Sorry. So we have to get you in, Anuradha, but I can't see you. Perfect. So till the time Anuradha comes, I will share my screen. So before I share my screen, I want to tell all of you, don't panic. Okay, don't panic at all. Just keep sharing in the group what is happening with you. Is that clear?
Yeah.
Anybody who wants to say that that's not clear, or anybody who wants to tell me it's all clear? All clear. Right, because what happens is introduction part, meh na, sabse badi gadbad hi ho jaati hai, ki hum gabra jate hain, jab immediately amare symptoms aane lakte hain toh, ek hai, vo nahi karna hai, apne siraf symptoms ko record karna hai, and you know that we will meet either on Thursday morning or on Friday morning. Chat box, please. If all of you can click and fill it, I will give you 2 minutes to do that. I want all 21 questionnaires to be filled. Did you get the thing? It is http://bit.ly/gutcleanseprogress. No, I've got this. Ma'. Am.
It is about this. Starting weight and wait after.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
But there are only five questions.
Yeah. Yeah.
You want more no, you said 21, so I was like, no, no, no.
I said 21 of us are there in the group. So I need you to all 21 to fill the questionnaire. And do mention, you know, whatever you have shared with me verbally. Maybe everybody is doing it together.
Oh, because over here in the wait it says must be a number, but I have written a number only.
Same is with me. Yeah, but some people have been able to submit it, so I know.
I wrote present, wait, then it's—
yeah, it's not taking, ma'am.
Don't take— don't give any space between the weights.
What?
Sorry, like if you, if you're putting in your, uh, wait when you join, after wait, don't give any space in between.
Okay, okay, okay. Ah, that's the benefit of having smart tech people online, you know. Thank you, Vakar. Perfect. So have we done it?
Yeah.
Great. So once more, before I share introduction, introduction, be prepared that symptoms aggravate, right? But symptoms aggravate, group may mention what are you feeling. It is like, yes or no? Absolutely right. So experience life, a few months. We will have to do this one. Introduction. Is that okay with all of us?
Yes, yes, yes.
Perfect. So let's see what we have to do. 3 major foods introduce. So tomorrow and day after, I will, you know, put a diet plan in the group. If for people, okay, diet plan follow, but you may follow, What is, ma'am? Wheat. Wheat. Wheat. Okay, that's perfectly all right.
Even before, I never used to have much wheat.
But you see why?
No, I just left it because I I just thought because of this IBS only, I, I just left it on my own. In the sense, I would just mix the two, but just to play it, I never used to have.
So mix the two is as bad as having plain wheat?
Clarity, I can mix the two, like jowar and wheat?
You can mix whatever you want, okay? But I would want you to take wheat alone because I don't want you to mix wheat 2 days from now.
Oh, okay.
If you have IBS, you don't even have to touch wheat. Just— that is how allergic you have to be to wheat if you have IBS, to correct your IBS.
Okay, so I take or I don't take?
No, 2 days you take so that you will know whether you should take it or not take it.
Will increase like anything.
Yeah, I do have pain. Then pain will increase like anything. Okay, so tomorrow we should take, right? Tomorrow you take it. If you have symptoms, don't take it day after. If you don't have symptoms, take it day after also.
Okay, then, ma'am, this normal, uh, wheat ka atta, you get the ready-made one, we can use. Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever.
Okay, then next 2 days we will introduce dairy and milk. So you will have 1 glass of milk or 1 glass of milk coffee, you will have curd, you will have paneer.
Can we have cheese?
You can have cheese, but you will have twice a day.
Anyone?
Yeah, I too can have 10 times a day. Twice a day I can eat cheese.
Ah, Tina, I can imagine you having headache already when you asked for cheese. Yeah, I love cheese. Ah man, I can sense it that you are allergic to cheese. I can sense it big time, and therefore your name is reflecting on my screen, and I could imagine, sir, but yes, do take cheese twice a day for 2 days, ma'am.
Or twice a day the same product, like cheese? If you're taking twice a day, no, not necessarily any dairy product.
Any dairy product. So you have to take 2 dairy products in that day, and you have to do that for 2 days.
Okay, and when we are doing the dairy, we stop the wheat.
Yes, we stop the wheat. Very smart. So what are the symptoms we have to watch for? You have to look for rashes, skin changes, all that stuff. You have to look, look for joint pains. You have to look for headaches or migraines. Sleepy, breathing, bloating, stomach pain, cramps, bowel habits, constipation, loose motions, right? And you think that after first day, then do not take that product the second day. Let your gut clean up. Go back to your gluten-free, dairy-free, nuts-free diet which you have been following for 3 weeks, right? Perfect. Any questions you have for me? But dairy products means curds we can try. Yes. Excuse me, ma'am. Yes, ma'am.
I was feeling light earlier in the first 2 weeks, but today somehow I am feeling more pain.
What have you eaten today?
Today though I haven't eaten much, same usual thing like salad, and I am more into, uh, natural, uh, like raw food diet. Once in a day only I'm taking grains, and that too millets.
And, um, but you have to figure out what is happening because there has to be a reason for something. Yeah, raw food sometimes actually have the probability of causing infections much higher than otherwise.
2 days back I introduced this Calmic D from Amway and Salmon Omega.
Omega cannot do this. Calmic D calcium, but shouldn't be doing this.
No, I have used it earlier also, but ma'am, I have got a tendency of this kind, like after every 15 or 20 days, for 15 days or so I'm okay. And then suddenly the pain comes for 2-3 days, it stays, then again it reduces. So maybe it is that cycle only, I can't say. But if I eat the diet suggested by you, like if I introduce this wheat tomorrow, then maybe I won't be able to make out that my pain has increased because of wheat, or it's Veer will give you other symptoms like it will make you sleepy, it will make you feel very bloated, it will make you feel agitated.
Okay, okay, ma'am.
And one more thing, ma'am, I asked you in the group that I am taking methi water, I'm not taking its seeds Because a few days, uh, 2 years back, I was getting myself diagnosed by an Ayurvedic doctor. He told me that don't— it won't suit me, methi, because it will— I'm already having hypertension, so it might increase my blood pressure, although I am taking as suggested by you.
I don't think so. That's one, okay. And, uh, Second is your body talks to you a lot. You only have to learn to listen to your body, right? And third is if you are hypertensive, why don't you change your diet so that your BP becomes normal?
Yeah, I'm doing a lot for that, ma'am. I'm taking— if you know Dr. Vishwaroop Roy Chaudhary. I'm following his diet. I am taking like— I'm starting my day with amla and karela juice, then palak and coriander mint juice. After that, nariyal pani, then 2-3 types of fruits, then 2-3 types of vegetables. And according to my weight, like my weight was 66 kg, so he's given this diet especially for hypertension. He says, he claims that it is good for hypertension, and I have found improvement in that.
But for the perfect— I do Dash diet for hypertension because there is a lot of scientific evidence and studies available for that on PubMed and Google Scholar. With that, I know there are very good results. But if it is helping you, please continue.
No, in hypertension it is helping me, but as far as my pains and stiffness is concerned, it is It has not helped me much.
Um, most probably in one-to-one, share your reports with me, we will talk about it. Okay, ma'am. One thing I want to tell all of you, one-to-one is 15 minutes, right? So second, if you have any reports, try and make a summary and send it to me, or send it to me as one attachment. What some people do is they click 10 pictures and send me 10 pictures. So if I have to open 10 attachments, 10 minutes goes in that only and the time goes over. Okay, so if you have to share some old reports with me, one, make a summary, and second, you know, share it as one report so that I can quickly scroll through it. Yes, make a PDF. Okay, 2-3 minutes we will spend on your life. First, I will study all the reports before consultation so that we can optimize the time and give you as much value as possible. So, reports, because autoimmunity, we will have to look into it.
Yes, ma'am, I haven't got my reports taken out for the last 2 years. Reports, because you told me that one-to-one, after one-to-one But you will get a rough idea.
Yes, yes.
Any other questions? Still I get benefited in bloating stomach and constipation. So what I want to ask you, uh, what these symptoms, um, it's a positive, are getting that due to only medication, uh, means will it be temporary or can we draw one conclusion? You can draw a conclusion.
No, because—
yes.
So first thing you have to understand is that milk is creating mess with you. Constipation, bloating.
Better.
Okay, so see, MGD3 syrup, constipation may help.
Yes, yes.
But overall, lighter, better feel, okay, so that is one. But Nilesh, you cannot conclude that you are not allergic to wheat. Okay, you know why? Because if you quit wheat for week or 10 days now and see, do you feel even better?
Okay.
Now what I want to tell all of you here is, friends, it's not necessary that you are allergic to wheat or milk. Sometimes this diet also helps us if we are not allergic but our gut is having some infection or has become leaky for some reason, right? Because wheat and milk, the size of the protein is very long. So if we have leaky gut, so that creates some symptoms in our body. So Nilesh, I would still recommend that you should actually quit wheat for 1 week.
Okay, Mom, I will try.
Leave wheat for one week, and in that week what you can have is you can have rice, yes, you can have besan kachila, you can have dosa, you can have idli.
What is the problem? I mean, in my past, what I observed, don't take chapati, so I get suffer with constipation.
Play. Okay, okay. If you are allergic to milk, generally those people have constipation. Okay, generally wheat, bloating and heaviness. So try it for 5 days, you will get to know in 5 days. Then you know that you should skip it for few months. You will know, okay, fine, I'm not allergic to wheat. Wheat is not causing a problem. And milk, you know, you can continue avoiding for a few more weeks.
Yes.
And once you start feeling good, then slowly introduce it.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, but very happy to hear, Nilesh, that you have— you feeling better despite the fact that you've not been able to follow 100%. Yeah, yeah.
I sent you one question. During this introduction phase. So should we continue with the new habits, means the smethi water, or—
Yes, yes, yes, yes, no, no, no, no, continue with this and introduce these stuff. Okay, okay, yeah, yes. Any other questions for me, ma'am?
Then will you allow to— allow us to have eggs?
So 2 days wheat, 2 days milk, and 1 day 2 days eggs.
Okay, and one very general question. Sorry if you find it too general. The question is that, uh, um, like people my age, like my friends, they, they, they are having the best of their time. They are having pizza every week, they are going out drinking and all that stuff. They don't get sick. Why only it's me who gets sick? And like, so is it like some internal problem with me or it's with them, maybe they will fall sick, God forbid, you know, in later times maybe. But after joining this program, I really feel that having maida, cheese is actually bad for your health. But why it is affecting me so badly?
I'll tell you. So Tina, very good question. And Tina, some things, you know, there are a lot of things which play a role in our health, okay? And today only I sent a message to Ayush and Nidhi saying I did not realize that gut health has become such a big pandemic. I did not realize it. Autoimmunity, what is happening? So Crohn's disease, can you imagine that? Autism, schizophrenia. So my point, answer to that is one 3 generations, 3 generations. Unfortunately, this is the situation. Second, with every bite of food you take? I don't know. Oxidative stress. So we will give you that supplement which will support you, and you will take that supplement off and on 9 months in a year or something, and you will be fine.
How can we get our genetics detox test done?
So you came in your one-to-one, you can ask me, I'll share the number with you, you can get it done. So that's the first thing, by body detox, genetic level B. Okay, second, delivery time, mom health, mom health, matter. So we get that tested and we remove that. Third is, they don't care. They would be obese also. Yeah, they would be very thin, but they won't care. They will still eating it because awareness. But symptoms, especially just a headache, menses irregular, yeah, mental health, anger feel, irritability feel, that is when we start thinking. I used to have migraine 3 days a week and I can't tell you And I know so many people who suffered their life, you know, and they have this migraine problem. Migraine, but 50-60% cases, I was lactose intolerant, I was deficient in some, I was low on progesterone. So Tina, the way to look at this situation is, right? It was the best thing which could happen to me because now I'm almost going to be 50 and I feel like I'm 30.
Because of diabetes, you were able to transform yourself.
Exactly. And because of migraine also, majorly migraine. So that's one way of you looking at it, you know. You achieve whatever you want in life.
Actually, yesterday I went out with friends and they were having all that stuff, pizza, and I was sitting in the car like feeling so, uh, down. And like, that—
what?
Like, look at that.
Why? If you will take a bite of pizza now, you will vomit it. I promise you that. Yeah, because your body will tell you it's not for you. Take an 80/20 rule. Life may hamisha But next 2 to 3 years, seriously, and I'm saying 2 to 3 years, Nilesh, you can still take white of egg and try because you will for sure know constipate. Right, Tina? Tina, I hope I've answered your question in a way that— right, absolutely. Perfect. Ma'am, when I feel—
I feel better, can I continue this for—
who is this? Harvinder Kaur. Harvinder Kaur ji, introduction. Okay. Right, but I've kept it only for the fact that one, you know that Dr. Preeti is going to listen to my input, right, and I wanted to do that.
Second, I haven't sent my report.
If you want to know the input, you will have to send it latest by tomorrow. After that, reports, they will have to do one more live on Thursday or Friday, so that we get to know introduction. Or baki chizo me kya farak pada? Right, ma'am, we have to do this report again, test again. That means once, please, before you start introduction.
Okay, ma'am, when can we introduce sugar and peanuts?
After 1 day of egg, introduce peanuts. And sugar, introduce me actually.
After joining this course, my sugar cravings have also vanished.
I know, because you are allergic to some food. I told you that makes you feel like cocaine craving. No, very difficult.
Ma'am, can we have raisins and like munakka or like—
you can have that, you can have coconut sugar, you can have a bit of organic jaggery. Without sugar is not a problem. Fruits, aloe vera, taste, ma'am.
I have only— through this diet, I could eliminate my tea and coffee. 35 years I've been having tea and coffee, and it's the first time I left it. Wow, it's just the first time. I know, it's amazing, right?
Very good, very good. So, Manali on YouTube, Do mention this because lot of people think chai bandh karenge toh aam toh bas bachenge in me.
I used to think—
You have gone on mute, Manali.
I had withdrawal symptoms, ma'am. I did have withdrawal symptoms because headache, sab ho gaya tha. 2 din toh I was bad.
But 2 days are worth to leave it. No, yes, 2 days are worth. And when we are in a group—
yeah, that's how I was just going to say that.
Yes, so doing elimination diet with a patient, you know, I charged 4-5 times because effort was on the left side, right? And groupmates, just like a cakewalk. And after introduction decision, you will be so wise. I am extremely happy, one, that you took this decision to join this program. I really enjoyed these 4 weeks with all of you, and I'm looking forward to our one-to-one consultation. Thank you. Second, I'm extremely happy that all of us are feeling better. Kitna percent better, that's of course different for different people. Yes or no?
Yes, absolutely.
Our body is in gratitude, we did something in a proper structure. So it does help. Imagine, Nilesh, I was actually thinking that because when my office girl called all of you, the nutritionist, you know, I got the feedback that he's not able to avoid wheat and all.
Ma'am, actually problem in our group maximum are ladies, but in case of our gents It's not possible to have a group to meet our own desire. That is the problem.
You know what, Nilesh, you've made our day for all of us. You have told us in very loud and clear words that we are the best, indispensable. That— this was on the lighter side, Nilesh. I appreciate that. Right. Very good.
Very— I'm extremely happy, Nilesh. And please introduce Taru.
Okay. Next time, right? Second, I would request all of you, Mary Food Medicine lives, YouTube channel, exercise for diabetics, 20 minutes exercise, my videos. So I'm not a very great one at doing videos, don't think professional, but scientifically 20 minutes exercise plan.
Yeah, sorry, abdominal breathing.
Abdominal breathing, but most of us can do the whole video because 20 minutes, it has been done in a way that, you know, your insulin gets in control, your muscles function properly, your cortisol gets in control. So it's a good set for all of you to do 4 times in a week.
Okay, Mom.
Yeah, that's I had stopped tomatoes for my joint pain, so I could—
I—
can I reintroduce those also?
Huh. So start with wheat, then go with milk, then eggs, then tomatoes.
And, uh, ma'am, if we go out, suppose if we are going out for dinner or something, so in that case, what How do we manage in those things after the elimination diet?
Oh, if I don't take eggs, so I can introduce tomatoes, uh, yes, after Yes, you've got the concept now.
Nuts and seeds, please, you will get to know betaine deficiency, you will get to know enzyme deficiencies.
Like, for example, if you're introducing tomatoes on that day, we don't eat any other things which were there in the elimination diet.
Yes. Yes, which were eliminated. So you introduce one food which was eliminated 2 times a day for 2 days at a stretch. Okay, right. So 2 days, 2 times, in decent enough quantity, you have to eat it. Okay, symptoms aggravate, don't worry.
And ma'am, what about, uh, like, you know, the oils?
We had skipped all the refined oils and everything, so you should skip it all the time. They are not good for you.
Yeah, but sometimes if you just— no, this is just like I'm asking you because maybe sometimes you get a parcel from out and, you know, you can't expect them to use this kind of oils. So I'm just I'm just asking you because on the days when women don't want to feel indispensable, we want to feel like someone pampered us.
I am also asking you, if I tell you no, you will not order it?
I have tried not to order it all these days, even though if I was so tired, I've made it up.
I know.
Thank you. So as I said, Rakshali, One to one ke baad dekli na, you need to take care of your gut. After you have healed your gut completely, there is a very sweet spot of 80/20. At 20% kuch bhi karlo, 80% line par ho to aap sahi reh pate ho. Okay, it's not that me gulab jamun ne kati ho, me pizza ne kati ho, me kati ho.
Uh, ma'am, this 80/20 rule can be applied for a lifetime even if we like go gluten-free for—
no, Tina, see, it can be applied for a lifetime after you have healed yourself.
After, after that, oh yes, lifetime, oh yes, once in a month we can, yes.
So healed in this sense, we have to, after we reintroduce, then go back to this elimination diet and do it continuously for 3 months?
No, not necessarily, Rakshali. It depends on the problem. Some of you in the group have actually problem which needs now the second level of work on your gut. Infection, autoimmunity, um, so we'll discuss that when we are there in one-to-one. Okay, so elimination diet is the start. At least you have said that right. Okay, you have to continue with it provided you get symptoms with any introduction of food. Introduce food symptom, but not— that's not the complete treatment. Okay. Perfect. Any other questions for me?
Yeah, sorry, in the report, like you said, if I have to send, uh, what exactly do you want? You want the TSH thyroid, you want vitamin D, you want B12, all that, right?
Whatever you want, the reports of that.
Okay, because there's a lot of details, so I don't want to say make a table report.
Make a table.
Okay, fine. Okay, okay.
But if it's in a one page, I know how to scroll it quickly. But send it as one attachment or make a table.
Okay, thank you, ma'am.
Perfect. See you on Thursday, Friday. Happy introducing foods. Don't be scared, just do it in a proper way and keep writing in the group. I am always there. Okay, I look forward to seeing you on Thursday and Friday. My link share please block your slots between 9 and 2, either on Thursday or on Friday.
Thank you, ma'am.
Okay, bye-bye. Thank you. Thank you. Bye-bye and all the best.
Thank you. Take care.
Bye-bye.
