For true therapeutic benefits, Vitamin D levels should be around 50 ng/mL. Most people fall short due to indoor lifestyles. Let’s fix that with awareness & action.

🌿 Healing “Gut-Reset” Khichdi
Combines easy-to-digest grains + lentils for balanced protein and carbs.

Includes spices like turmeric, ginger, cumin, fennel/asafoetida- all known to support digestion, reduce inflammation and gently support detox.

🥄 Ingredients (serves 2–3)

🌿½ cup split yellow mung dal (moong dal)
🌿½ cup rice
🌿1 tbsp ghee (or cold-pressed oil)
🌿½ tsp turmeric powder
🌿1 tsp cumin seeds
🌿¼ tsp fennel seeds (optional)
🌿¼ tsp asafoetida (hing) — helpful for sensitive digestion
🌿1 small piece of fresh ginger — grated (optional but good for digestion)
🌿Salt — to taste
🌿3–4 cups water (adjust for consistency — more for a soupy khichdi)

Optional for extra nourishment / variety:

Add a handful of chopped vegetables (e.g. carrot, bottle-gourd, spinach) for fibre, vitamins & gentle detox benefits.

🍲 Method

🌿Rinse the moong dal and rice thoroughly under running water until water runs mostly clear. (Soaking 15–20 min helps digestion, but optional.)
🌿In a pot or pressure cooker, heat the ghee/oil. Add cumin seeds (and fennel seeds, if using). Let them sizzle for a few seconds.
🌿Add grated ginger (if using) and asafoetida — sauté gently.
🌿Add moong dal and rice, turmeric, salt — stir gently for a minute so spices coat the grains / dal.
🌿Add water (3–4 cups, depending on how soupy you want the khichdi).

On stove: Cover and cook on medium-low until dal and rice are soft and mushy (about 25–30 min).
Pressure cooker: Cook for 2–3 whistles, then let pressure release naturally.

Once cooked, mix gently. Optional: drizzle a little ghee (or olive oil) on top, garnish with fresh coriander leaves or a squeeze of lemon.

Serve warm — ideal for lunch or dinner, especially when you want something gentle yet nourishing.

💚 Suggested Use — “Gentle Reset” Meal

Use this khichdi as a go-to meal during gut-healing days, when digestion feels sensitive, or when you want a light, nourishing meal that supports body-brain balance.

💬 Can autism really improve?
At Functional Medicine Clinic we don’t promise a “cure,” but we believe in supporting the body so the brain has a chance to heal. By addressing gut health, immune balance, nutrient status, detoxification and environmental factors — we aim to create conditions that allow children to develop with greater comfort and potential. Many families see significant improvements in digestion, behaviour, communication and overall wellbeing over time.

💬 What tests do we do?
Depending on the child’s history, we may recommend: blood tests (for inflammation, nutrient status, organ-function, toxins), organic-acid/metabolic testing, stool/gut-microbiome analysis, heavy-metal screening (hair-mineral or tissue analysis), and other assessments to understand root-cause triggers. These help create a personalised roadmap rather than a generic plan.

💬 How long does recovery take?
It depends — every child is unique. Some families observe improvements within a few months of consistent dietary, nutritional and gut-health interventions; for others, the journey takes longer as the body gradually rebalances..

✨ Food is more than fuel - it’s information for the developing brain.
Through personalised nutrition (gluten-free, casein-free, soy-free diets), we help the body heal and the mind flourish.
Every meal can move your child closer to balance. 🌾


🔬 Why this matters:

Research shows elimination diets like the gluten-free, casein-free (GFCF) approach have shown improvements in GI symptoms, sleep and communication among some children with autism – especially when gut issues are present.

A holistic elimination approach (including removal of soy, additives and common allergens) positions nutrition as a healing foundation, not just “another diet”.

While results vary, the beauty lies in listening to your child’s unique biology: their gut, immune system, nutrient status; this is personalised nourishment, not “one-size-fits-all”.

👉 If you feel that your child’s body is speaking through digestion, energy, mood or growth, perhaps it’s time to listen with intention and care.

When the gut speaks, the brain listens.

Many children with autism live with gut challenges; yeast overgrowth, constipation, nutrient malabsorption, which are not just “side issues.” These imbalances can deeply affect how their brain functions. 🌿

By restoring gut balance, we support:

More stable metabolism

🌿Better absorption of key nutrients
🌿Reduced inflammation
🌿Improved focus, speech, mood & behaviour

At Functional Medicine Clinic, we believe in healing from within, because the gut-brain axis is not just a concept, it’s a pathway to deeper transformation.

✨ Myth Busting: “Rethinking Autism” ✨
❌ Myth: Autism is purely genetic.
✅ Truth: Autism is multi-systemic; it often involves gut, immune, metabolic and environmental factors as well as genetic ones.
When we address the body, the brain begins to heal too. 🌿

Millions of families are discovering that behavioural symptoms may reflect deeper biological imbalances, such as gut-microbiome shifts, inflammation, nutrient gaps or environmental exposures. Research shows the so-called “gut-brain axis” plays an active role in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

At Functional Medicine Clinic we don’t stop at the label. We go deeper, to integrate body and brain, nutrition and environment, because every child deserves a path to thrive.

Our Story

Healthcare today is 'sickness care'​. The missing link which is completely ignored, is 'nutrition'. Like a car which has to be serviced periodically and provided with quality fuel for efficiency, our body has to be detoxified and provided with right nutrition on regular basis to PREVENT, TREAT AND REVERSE chronic diseases.

Dr Ashwani Garg and Dr Ruhi Agarwala are Functional Medicine Experts. Functional medicine is a medical approach dedicated to finding and treating the underlying causes of chronic disease, rather than disease symptoms. With this approach, they assess the root cause of disease and addresses them holistically. They help people make sustainable lifestyle changes to heal their body, be healthy and vibrant!
