Dimple Jangda
About this episode

In this episode of A Gut Story, host Dimple Jangda speaks with Kunal Jai Singh about the ancient wisdom and modern relevance of Ayurveda. The conversation traces Ayurveda’s mythological origins, its foundation on the five elements and three doshas - Kapha, Pitta, and Vata and its holistic approach to preventive health. They discuss the central role of digestion and gut health, the detoxifying practice of Panchakarma, and the dangers of wrong food combinations that lead to disease. The dialogue also emphasizes using the five senses while eating, the power of circadian rhythm, pranayama, chanting, and journaling for mental health. Practical tips for hair, skin, heart, lungs, and colon care are shared, while a deeper spiritual message encourages listeners to live with purpose, compassion, and balance.
