GUT HEALTH SCIENTIST · PRACTITIONER · FOUNDER

10 years reversing the gut conditions medicine gave up on.

I've spent over a decade at the intersection of Functional Medicine and Ayurveda — working with CEOs, chronic disease sufferers, and complex cases across 25+ countries. I built GutIQ™ — the world's first patented gut diagnostic — because measurement changes everything.

Former AI Product Manager · Big Tech
THE STORY
"I was told my gut issues were permanent. I spent 10 years proving that wrong — for myself, and then for thousands of others."

I'm a gut health scientist and practitioner with over a decade of clinical experience reversing conditions that conventional medicine had written off. I work at the intersection of Functional Medicine and Ayurveda — two systems that, together, address the root cause rather than the symptom.

Before building GutIQ™, I was an AI Product Manager at a major tech company. That background changed how I approached health — I don't just treat, I measure, systematise, and build roadmaps. GutIQ™ is the result: a patented diagnostic that turns gut symptoms into a Score, a Type, and a personalised protocol.

WHY AKANKSHA
01
Clinical depth, not coaching depth

10+ years of hands-on practice across Functional Medicine and Ayurveda. Trained at four world-class institutions. This is not a certification course — it's a decade of reversing complex cases.

02
Systems thinking from big tech

A background in AI Product Management means she approaches health like an engineer — finding root causes, building measurable protocols, and systematising results. That's why she built a diagnostic, not just another programme.

03
Specialist in the "impossible" cases

The clients who come to GutIQ™ have typically already seen multiple specialists. The harder the case, the more important it is to get the root cause right — and that's exactly where this approach excels.

WHAT SHE BUILT

GutIQ™ — the world's only patented gut diagnostic.

Most gut health advice is generic. GutIQ™ turns your symptoms into a measurable Score, identifies your gut Type, and builds a Roadmap unique to your biology. Not a diet plan. A diagnostic system.

WHO WORKS WITH GUTIQ™
CEOs & Senior Leaders

High-performers whose gut, energy, hormonal or metabolic health is affecting their performance and longevity. They need answers, not protocols — and they need someone who understands what's at stake.

Chronic Disease Sufferers

People who have tried everything — multiple specialists, restrictive diets, medications — and still haven't found the root cause. This is exactly the case GutIQ™ was built to solve.

Global Clients, Complex Cases

Clients across 25+ countries — parliamentarians, film industry leaders, business executives. All work is done remotely. Geography has never been a barrier to the right care.

The "We've Tried Everything" Cases

If you've been told your condition is permanent or incurable — that's precisely where GutIQ™ works best. The harder the case, the more important it is to get the root cause right.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

    From 75 mcg Thyroid Medication to Zero: A PCOS & Thyroid Recovery Case

    Diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2016/17 and PCOS in 2020, she had been dependent on thyroid and PCOS medication for years.

    Through a root-cause hormone-metabolic approach, she reports being off both thyroid and PCOS medication — moving from 75 mcg thyroid support to zero — and feeling significantly better internally.

    Reversing Cholesterol, Prediabetes & Fatty Liver at 64

    At 64, Reina came to us with severe LDL elevation, fatty liver, prediabetes, digestive heaviness, hair fall and persistent weight gain. Through a structured gut–liver–metabolic approach, she successfully normalized her HbA1c, dramatically improved her cholesterol profile, stabilized digestion and lost 4 kg - without crash dieting or extreme restriction.

    Supportive Management During Active Treatment in Advanced ALK-Positive Metastatic Lung Adenocarcinoma

    A young patient with advanced ALK-positive metastatic lung adenocarcinoma required intensive supportive management during active oncologic treatment. With multisite disease involvement and a medically fragile treatment course, the focus remained on symptom management, supporting treatment tolerance, close monitoring, and clinical stabilisation through changing phases of care.

    Anxiety, Brain Fog & Period Migraines And Antibiotic Linked Dysbiosis

    Rishika came to PURO with anxiety, brain fog, poor sleep and period migraines, against a history of pulmonary tuberculosis and heavy antibiotic exposure.

    Gut mapping pointed to a deeper post-antibiotic gut-brain-hormone imbalance.

    With a personalised PURO protocol, she experienced calmer anxiety, sharper clarity, better sleep, reduced migraines and visible reduction in puffiness.

    From Hormonal Imbalance & Metabolic Dysfunction to Improved Labs and Inner Healing

    Varsha came in with gut issues, hormonal imbalance, fatigue, bloating and multiple metabolic markers out of range. Over time, she experienced better energy, clearer skin, improved body awareness, and meaningful shifts across insulin, thyroid and cholesterol markers.

    From Pregnancy Challenges, Grade 2 Fatty Liver, Mid-Cycle Spotting to Metabolic and Hormonal Recovery

    A history of previous pregnancy losses, fatty liver risk, high triglycerides and mid-cycle spotting — her case showed how reproductive health can be deeply connected to the gut–liver–metabolic axis.

    From Medication Dependency to Remission, Better Energy, Clarity and Stability

    A case of long-standing acidity, morning fatigue and irritability where the client’s primary goal was to stop relying on medication — achieved through a personalised, food-first gut-balancing protocol.

    High Fermentation Gut Dysbiosis with PMS and Skin Flares

    Yuthika’s case revealed a high-fermentation gut dysbiosis pattern driving food reactivity, acidity, PMS flares, irregular stools and skin/scalp symptoms — despite multiple programs and restrictive diets.
