Our Story of Self Help to Good Health
Way back in the summer of 2008, we moved to Bangalore with our 10 months old son, Yash. We wanted to give him a fascinating childhood in the Garden city of India. As working parents with multinationals, we wanted to pursue our careers while giving him a fulfilling childhood. Little we knew that it will completely change our priorities in Life.
Next Two Years in Bangalore
Bangalore is a great city, however it is notoriously known for its Pollen Allergy problem (something we were not aware of). As parents of a young child we were naive not to have enquired about the city before we decided to move in. Soon after summers were over and Yash started falling sick to common cold on a recurring basis. We were surprised as Yash had never fallen sick before. Nevertheless we were assured by ENT Doctors at the cities best hospital that such things are very common and he will be fine with some routine medication.
We kept on hearing such assurances for next several quarters and finally somebody told us to move out of Bangalore (which turned out to be our wisest decision). However by then Yash was already 30 months old with developmental delays. During these two years Yash’ mother left her job at a marquee software company to take care of Yash and ensure that he gains age appropriate weight. Finally we were back in Delhi.
The year of Unsuccessful Exploration
We felt that Yash is better immediately after we moved back to Delhi. For the first time he ate two full aloo parathas on his own. Though he improved but he was significantly behind his age appropriate milestones. This is when we restarted our visit to doctors. Visited almost all the top hospitals and met all kind of Doctors starting from ENT, Paediatricians to Neurologists. We heard several diagnosis from them starting from “mental disorder” to “he is fine” to “you guys are overreacting”. As parents our question to them was what do we do now. Diagnosis is not the end, we were simply interested in the solution. After hundreds of visits to doctors we finally gave up on the medical fraternity.
Internet is the way to go
Finally we started searching the net, reading articles, research reports from Harvard, Stanford and other leading medical schools. This is when we understood the role of Nutrition and learned about Vitamins, Minerals and Amino Acids. Today Yash has recovered a lot and has attained all major age appropriate milestones.
Our Learning’s:
- What could be the cause of developmental delays children have?
- What are the common causes of Lifestyle diseases people face around all of us?
- Are we getting sufficient nutrients our body needs and if our food is offering it?
- Is there a way to prevent autoimmune diseases to happen?
- What is the role of Nutrition in our well being?
- It is not enough just to suppress the symptoms by medicines?
- To attain real good health, how do we find the real cause of health concern and how do we address it.
Our exploration helped us to be much more aware of what is happening across the world. Today we do not accept the status quo, by saying we can’t do anything about it. Our pursuit led us to meet and interact with several alternative therapy health care practitioner such as NAET, Accupressure and Nutritional Therapy.
- Our body need essential nutrients to work and perform as desired. Such micro nutrients are a must for a quality life.
- Several pollutants in our environment such as vehicle exhaust, chemicals and pesticides are destroying our nutrient profile of our food and increasing toxin overload of our body.
- The food quality is constantly eroding and we need to supplement our food to ensure we live a fulfilled life.
The journey we had undergone along with our son and other personal challenges (our health also took a toll with several health concerns we have faced ourselves such as Hypothyroidism, Blood Pressure) we have faced has made us make a promise to the Almighty (Our God) that we will do something about it and we will share our learning’s with everyone.
