307: Detox, Gut Health & Autoimmune: The Truth Doctors Won’t Tell You – with Dr. Chiti Parikh
Alright, Brave Table fam — buckle up, because today we are cutting through the wellness noise and getting straight to the juicy truth about your health. I’m sitting down with my girl Dr. Chiti Parikh, and this is the episode your doctor probably doesn’t want you to hear. We’re talking why your green smoothie obsession might actually be bloating you, how your stress, your schedule, and even your thoughts are literally toxifying your body, and why you NEED to detox (but not in the bougie spa way — think ancient science meets modern life).Dr. Chiti’s got degrees for days — MD, functional medicine, Ayurveda, acupuncture — but what I love most? She’s not about that elitist wellness vibe. Her clinic at Cornell is insurance-based (yes, you read that right — real integrative care that regular people can actually afford). She’s here to shake up the system and show us how to brave our health — with intention. If you’re tired, inflamed, bloated, or just straight-up confused by all the health noise, this one’s for you.What you'll get out of this episode… Meal timing, or chrono-nutrition, could matter more to your health than what you eat.Detoxing isn’t a luxury — it’s giving your body space to heal.Everyday toxins — from shampoo to containers — quietly harm your health.Women need unique fasting rules — hormones change everything.Own your health — ask better questions and treat the root.To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanOfficialConnect with today’s guest, Chiti ParikhIG / @intentionalhealth_Intentional Health Book → Amazon linkWant more?Visit the website and order your copy of “That Sucked, Now What?” → https://thatsuckednowwhat.com/Take just 2 minutes and find what YOUR emotional type is by taking my FREE quiz here → theemotionalreset.com/quizFor a weekly dose of my hacks, tools, & tips to emotionally reset, join my newsletter here → yourweeklyreset.comIf you loved this episode, check out…Ep.# 286: Are Your Lifestyle Habits Slowly Killing You?
