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.

Years of clinical practice
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.

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.
