About The Book

The good news is that almost any ailment can be healed. The key is not just managing the symptoms but treating it from its root cause-the gut! Your gut is a host to 100 trillion bacteria, good and bad, living in synergy with each other to help fight against pathogens, diseases and germ attacks. It also helps accelerate your weight loss journey as well as build and boost immunity to fight viruses. The gut is also the main reason why you can remember and reason things out; it is where your fight-flight responses lay. It helps build your cognitive fitness and protects your mental well-being, as it is also your happy hormone secretor.

However, modern lifestyle changes have made our guts more vulnerable than ever before. Payal Kothari's The Gut is all about understanding your bioindividual needs. It offers simple yet effective tools and tips to treat common as well as chronic illnesses. The gut is the core of who we are, and this fascinating book tells you how to start listening to your gut instincts-from simple things like what to eat to closing a million-dollar deal!

Introduction

This book is a reflection of my own health and soul-searching journey. I sincerely wish that it helps you resolve confusion with regards to mental and physical illnesses, holistically, from its root cause-your gut. The book will also help you dive deeper and unfold the mysterious galaxy of the 100 trillion microbes inside your gut and their connections with the rest of your body.

Through this book, I intend to show you how an integrative, preventive and bioindividual nutrition plan can help address your daily nagging problems of acidity, bloating, obesity, depression, thyroid, heart diseases and even cancer.

From debunking expensive and dangerous fad diets to suggesting ways to boost immunity during a pandemic, this book covers a wide range of subjects. Packed with new, bold and refreshing possibilities, every chapter contains nuggets of authentic information that I have learnt/acquired over 35 years and which I have applied on myself and my clients.

I have tried to relearn and rediscover the secret scrolls of nutrition and wellness, and clear out the fog of marketing and dependency on medication toxicity, to the best of my ability.

This book offers to-do lists for almost everything you need to transform your life. It empowers you to rightfully take back the power to heal your body, naturally. Using simple yet efficient resources and tools such as replacing medicine with food, mastering the art of listening to your gut feelings, breaking up with sugar and gluten, choosing meals of your own liking and so on, you can become the master (read CEO) of your health.

MY PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION JOURNEY

My mentor once told me that being an empath is a gift-an aching yet beautiful gift that I use as a medium to transform thousands of lives. I am not sure if I chose the profession or if the profession chose me. My gut feeling goes with the latter.

The most motivating factor whilst writing this book has been the ease of the process and how connecting with it on a subconscious and gut level broadened my horizons as an integrative nutritionist and a gut health coach.

Given half a chance, your body can heal itself-this belief has transformed my life. My journey as a research nerd has helped me on different levels and a few lines of introduction may not do justice to my personal transformation as a coach.

However, I am willing to take that chance. This entrepreneurial journey as a coach has let me employ empathy and overcome many hurdles, helping me become the person I am today.

I wrote this book during the lockdown, when we were faced with the biggest challenge of our times, COVID-19-the pandemic that shook the world. Being at home brought back old, unpleasant memories-from being a sick two-year-old with tuberculosis (TB) to a teen who was body shamed, from having to undergo multiple in vitro fertilizations (IVFs) in my 30s to facing huge financial struggles. I suppressed these emotions, which affected my gut and emotional wellness, in the long run.
