Is a "forest fire" of inflammation destroying your health from the inside out? Today on Eyes Wide Open, we sit down with Dr. Shivani Gupta to decode the "Inflammation Code" and reveal how ancient Ayurvedic wisdom can put out the fire of chronic disease. In this deep dive, we bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science to uncover the "Inflammation Code."  We discuss how childhood experiences shape our health journeys, the physiological impact of being out of sync with nature's clock, and the importance of advocating for root-cause medicine in a world dominated by quick-fix pharmaceuticals.  Dr. Shivani shares practical, daily Ayurvedic rituals, from tongue scraping to seasonal eating, that empower you to take control of your vitality and navigate the complex supplement industry with transparency and confidence. Key Takeaways & Revelations The Circadian Clock: Why aligning your meal timing and sleep rituals with your circadian rhythm is the foundation of metabolic health. Inflammation as a "Forest Fire": How to identify the silent signs of systemic inflammation and use natural anti-inflammatories like turmeric to prevent chronic disease. Patient Advocacy: Why moving away from "pill-based" medicine requires a cultural shift toward preventative lifestyle strategies and personalized care. Supplement Transparency: How to identify medical-grade supplements and avoid the fillers and misinformation common in big-box retail brands. Ayurvedic Rituals: Practical steps for daily detoxification, including the benefits of oil pulling and tongue scraping. Our Mission Eyes Wide Open is a space for honest communication. Our goal is to remove the stigmas around mental health, holistic lifestyles, culture, and free speech so you can show up as your authentic self with your eyes wide open. By having real conversations about difficult truths, we move toward collective healing.   Chapters 00:00 - Introduction to Dr. Shivani Gupta and her holistic health philosophy 03:05 - Childhood stories that inspired a passion for healing 08:49 - The significance of the circadian rhythm in maintaining health 12:41 - Best practices for supporting your circadian clock through diet and routines 18:28 - Balancing the "hustle" with seasonal rhythms and off-seasons 20:22 - Ayurveda's approach to detox: Tongue scraping and oil pulling 24:32 - Researching inflammation and her new book, The Inflammation Code 28:48 - Debunking myths around processed foods and the influence of big corporations 33:53 - Conventional medicine vs. patient advocacy 45:33 - Building trust in the supplement industry with quality controls 50:24 - Personal stories about gluten-free living and body signals 55:12 - The science of turmeric and the launch of Fusionary Formulas 64:36 - From childhood health struggles to holistic advocacy 65:24 - Resources to connect with Dr. Shivani Gupta   Resources & Links Get the Book: The Inflammation Code by Dr. Shivani Gupta Connect with Dr. Shivani Gupta: Instagram: @dr.shivanigupta Fusionary RX: @fusionaryformulasrx YouTube: @dr.shivanigupta Website: shivanigupta.com | fusionaryformulas.com Connect with Nick Thompson: Instagram: @nthompson513 UCAN Foundation: theucanfoundation.org YouTube: @EyesWideOpenContent LinkedIn: Nick Thompson

Pain that creeps in, brain fog that lingers, weight that resists every effort—what if the culprit isn't “just getting older,” but inflammaging? We sit down with Dr. Shivani Gupta, author of The Inflammation Code, to connect ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science and map out a practical plan for cooling chronic inflammation. Instead of chasing symptoms, we focus on the terrain: circadian rhythm, gut health, stress load, and daily rituals that nudge the body back into repair mode.Shivani shares a refreshingly doable morning routine—intention setting, hydration, tongue scraping, and early sunlight—that anchors your clock and digestion. She then walks us through soothing evening practices like dry brushing, abhyanga oil massage, and mineral baths to move lymph, calm the nervous system, and deepen sleep. We explore the concept of “mental inflammation,” how chronic stress inflames the body, and why short decompression breaks plus adaptogens such as ashwagandha and shatavari help regulate mood and resilience.We also dive into the science of turmeric: how curcumin modulates NF-kB and TNF-alpha, supports the gut lining, affects AMPK and sirtuins, and promotes neurogenesis and mitochondrial health. You'll hear when food sources are enough, when supplements make sense, how to boost absorption with black pepper and healthy fats, and key safety notes for blood thinners and kidney stone risk. For midlife women, Shivani emphasizes sleep as the non-negotiable lever—assessing progesterone, using calming botanicals, and protecting the 10–2 overnight window where the body clears inflammation.If you're ready to replace quick fixes with smart rhythms, spice up your meals with potent anti-inflammatory allies, and finally feel your energy return, this conversation offers a clear roadmap.

What if the real reason your inflammation, stubborn weight gain, burnout, and joint pain are not going away has nothing to do with aging or willpower, but with a biological code your body is trying to communicate? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi welcomes back Dr. Shivani Gupta for a powerful conversation on inflammation, Ayurveda, and why modern life quietly keeps the body stuck in a chronic inflammatory state. Dr. Shivani explains why inflammation is not just a symptom, but a biological alarm that signals misalignment with nature, circadian rhythm, lifestyle, and mental stress. They break down the difference between acute and chronic inflammation, why chronic low-grade inflammation blocks fat loss, disrupts hormones, impairs digestion, and accelerates fatigue, and how ancient Ayurvedic principles offer simple, effective solutions that still apply today. You will learn how daily rhythm, nature exposure, circadian alignment, and anti-inflammatory spices can begin shifting inflammation in as little as 24 hours, without extreme diets, deprivation, or medication. The conversation also dives deep into mental and emotional inflammation, how stress chemistry impacts the body at a cellular level, and why healing requires addressing environment, mindset, and lifestyle together. If you have been doing everything right but still feel inflamed, bloated, or exhausted, this episode offers a clear reframe and practical tools you can start using immediately. Key Topics Covered Why inflammation is a biological code, not just a symptom The difference between acute inflammation and chronic low-grade inflammation How inflammation blocks fat loss, metabolism, hormones, and digestion Environmental toxins, diet, and mental stress as the three major inflammation buckets Why modern life creates constant inflammatory pressure on the body Circadian rhythm, nature exposure, and daily rhythm as healing tools Mental and emotional inflammation and how stress chemistry fuels disease Ayurvedic super spices as a cellular pharmacy Why most turmeric supplements fail and how absorption actually works Curcumin's role in insulin resistance, metabolic health, and longevity Ginger, cardamom, fennel, and other spices for digestion and metabolism Practical morning, daytime, and nighttime routines to reduce inflammation Ayurvedic food combining principles and digestion timing How gratitude, mindset, and nature exposure shift inflammation at a cellular level Coupon and Discount To explore Dr. Shivani Gupta's supplements, visit: Link: https://benazadi.com/fusionary Coupon code: FREEDOMDiscount: 15% off Follow Dr. Shivani Gupta

If you're a health-focused entrepreneur who hustles hard but feels inflamed, exhausted, wired-but-tired, or out of rhythm with your body, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Shivani Gupta to explore how chronic stress, circadian rhythm disruption, and nervous system overload are quietly driving inflammation, burnout, gut issues, hormone imbalance, and immune dysfunction—especially in high-achieving women. We talk about Ayurveda as a practical, modern lifestyle framework, not a trend, and how understanding your elemental design (dosha) can help you work with your biology instead of constantly fighting it. This episode is a grounding reminder that you can still be ambitious—and healthy—at the same time. What You'll Learn in This Episode 1. Why Stress Creates Inflammation (Even If You Eat "Healthy") Chronic mental and emotional stress keeps the nervous system locked in fight-or-flight, which directly fuels physical inflammation and chronic disease. We talk about why you can't live in hustle mode 24/7 without eventually draining your reserves—and how burnout is often the body's last signal to slow down. 2. Circadian Rhythm and Seasonal Hustle Not every season of life is meant for full throttle. We discuss how circadian rhythm and elemental design teach us when to push—and when to rest—so we don't burn out the very bodies we rely on to build our businesses. 3. Ayurveda 101: Understanding Your Elemental Design Dr. Shivani breaks down the three Ayurvedic constitutions in a modern, relatable way: Vata (air + ether): creative, fast-moving, prone to anxiety, dryness, insomnia Pitta (fire + water): driven, focused, prone to irritability, inflammation, overheating Kapha (earth + water): steady, nurturing, prone to sluggish metabolism, stagnation Knowing your type helps you eat, work, rest, and self-regulate more effectively—especially as an entrepreneur. 4. Food as Grounding, Not Restriction We talk about why: Vata types often need more carbs and healthy fats, not less Pitta types need cooling foods to calm inflammation Kapha types thrive with movement and warm, easy-to-digest meals This conversation reframes food as nourishment and regulation—not control. 5. Perimenopause, Menopause & Hormonal Shifts We dive into how Ayurveda supports women through hormone changes by focusing on: Sleep quality Gut health Stress regulation Circadian rhythm alignment Herbal and lifestyle support Rather than fearing these transitions, we talk about how to move through them with more resilience and self-trust.

Healthy Mind, Healthy Life
Can Grief Rewrite Your Immigrant Dream And Help You Find A New Sky? | Shivani Malik

Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with scientist, biotech leader and debut novelist Shivani Malik to unpack how grief can quietly reroute a life that looks “perfect” on paper. Shivani shares how losing her mother. the person who championed her move from India to the US for a PhD and a career in cancer research. forced her to ask a hard question. Am I building the life I truly choose. or the one that was handed to me as the immigrant gold standard Her debut novel “The Sky Is Different Here” becomes the container for that inquiry. blending STEM and storytelling to explore grief, ambition, belonging, identity, women in STEM and the emotional cost of chasing the immigrant dream. If you have ever hit your goals and still felt strangely empty. this conversation will land close to home and give you pragmatic language and tools to actually sit with your emotions instead of outrunning them.   About The Guest:   Shivani Malik is a scientist, immigrant, biotech leader and debut novelist. She moved from India to the United States for her PhD. trained at Stanford and UCSF and built a high impact career in cancer research and drug development. After the sudden death of her mother. Shivani began writing as a way to process unresolved grief and question the version of success she had been running toward. That process eventually became her debut novel “The Sky Is Different Here.” a work of fiction rooted in real emotional truths about loss, belonging and the complexity of being a woman, immigrant and dream chaser. Today she continues her work in biotech while using story as a way to build community around shared struggle, invisible expectations and the cost of never slowing down.   Key Takeaways: Grief will not stay in the background forever. Shivani reached a point in her postdoctoral training where the “unopened package of grief” for her mother made it impossible to keep functioning on autopilot. The immigrant dream can silently become an emotional contract. She names how passion for science and external expectations blend. making it hard to tell where genuine desire ends and cultural pressure begins. Fiction gave her psychological safety. By fictionalizing roughly shaped versions of her lived experience. she could tell the emotional truth without exposing specific people, institutions or workplaces. Science and storytelling share the same backbone. In the lab you still “tell a story” about how a cancer drug works and who it can help. That pattern of connecting dots translated directly into shaping a novel. Healing required both solitude and community. Writing helped her sit with grief. but reading other grief stories and later sharing her own created a sense of community that science culture had not given her. Everyone carries loss and dislocation. whether it is a person, a home or a sense of belonging. Shivani urges listeners to find some way to express it. through writing, conversation, walking, meditation or sitting with feelings instead of numbing them. Expression is step one. sharing is step two. Naming your experience with someone who truly “gets it” becomes a powerful way to move forward rather than just cope.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today, I'm joined by the luminous Dr. Shivani Gupta, founder of Fusionary Formulas and author of The Inflammation Code.

What followed was a journey of deep functional medicine testing, emotional regulation, and fierce self-advocacy—proof that healing is never linear.We talk about the real root of “inflamma-aging,” why brain fog and fatigue are not normal, and how inflammation is at the center of most chronic disease. Shivani breaks down the six Ayurvedic pillars of anti-inflammatory living, the importance of circadian alignment (especially the 10–2 window), and why tea time is more than self-care—it's medicine.From tongue scraping and turmeric to sleep hygiene and self-awareness, this episode is full of accessible practices that bring ancient rituals into modern life. Whether you're battling burnout, navigating hormonal chaos, or simply ready to feel more alive, Shivani's wisdom will help you rewrite your own inflammation code. Episode Highlights[00:00] – Living with mold: the surprise diagnosis that changed everything[03:30] – Mold dogs, remediation, and the truth about “healthy homes”[06:40] – Why no supplement can fix a toxic environment[09:10] – Genetic resilience, functional testing, and understanding bio-individuality[13:05] – Hair loss as a metabolic signal and the timeline of toxic exposure[17:00] – Fear, mindset, and emotional regulation during mold recovery[18:52] – The Inflammation Code: aging, Ayurveda, and winning at inflammation[22:45] – Cycles, seasons, and building your Ayurvedic circadian rhythm[26:19] – Mental inflammation: the hidden driver of burnout and disease[30:40] – Building an anti-inflammatory lifestyle from the ground up[36:57] – Why doctors stay in their lanes—and why you must self-advocate[39:22] – Pitta, Kapha, and using fire time for healing and repair[45:24] – Ayurvedic sleep rituals and the power of forgiveness in wellness[47:21] – Tea time is me time: micro-moments of self-care that change your biology[53:37] – The 12 daily rituals for detox, digestion, and emotional balance[55:15] – Tongue scraping, turmeric, and the simple tools that actually work[58:56] – How to cycle supplements, build awareness, and measure results[1:01:26] – The spreadsheet of supplements: data meets intuition[1:03:02] – Big love, big lessons, and the path to sustainable healingConnect With Dr. ShivaniDr. Shivani Gupta: https://drshivani.comThe Inflammation Code (Preorder): https://theinflammationcode.comGet Your UpgradeVisionary Formulas: https://fusionaryformulas.com/?sca_ref=9671297.FAK6ESUdt3R9--- Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybrokenCatchBio: https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN   CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How do very small galaxies form? What's going on inside them? And what happens when black holes collide? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome astrophysicist and “Galaxy Detective” Dr. Charlotte Olsen from New York City College of Technology – and you can call her Chuck, too! As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, the latest announcement from LIGO about the detection of a gravitational wave event in 2023 from the loudest collision we've heard so far. In this case, the wave was caused by the collision of two black holes that created one new black hole about 60x the mass of our Sun and released an entire sun's worth of energy. Charlotte explains why there are many black hole collisions going on, and how LIGO detections are now being combined with data from other gravitational wave detectors to give us more precise measurements. You'll also hear about Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) and their negative impact on Charlotte's research. Charlotte talks about what she looks for in her research, and why it all comes down to “wanting to see more photons” to better validate her modeling. Our first question from the audience comes from Joe, who asks, “What does it mean for the Milky Way to have a bar? Why does it have a bar? And how can such a long bar form?” It turns out that many spiral galaxies like ours have bars, and Charlotte explains a little about bar structure. She brings up the current debate about the stability of these bars, and points out that they actually come in slightly different configurations and that star formation at the ends of the bar has an impact, too. Unlike previous thinking, these bars can develop earlier in galactic evolution and can last a very long time. In other words, as Charlotte puts it, “The bar is always open.” Next, Chuck asks what got Charlotte into astronomy. She describes the inspiration she drew from both the dark skies of Northern California, where she grew up, and from the science fiction she read. She shares a few of her “million and one jobs” she did, including her stint as a bassist in a band. That tees up our next audience question, from Shivani, who asks, “How do you mix music and science? I can't decide if I want to be a scientist or a musician someday – can I be both?” Yes, Charlotte says, and explains why doing both might actually be better. She talks about the value of music, and passion, and hobbies that are more than just hobbies, as well as some of the live music she's been seeing in Brooklyn, Long Island and Queens. Finally, Chuck asks Charlotte about the current passion project she's working on. She tells us how she's looking at a handful of galaxies in multiple wavelengths and comparing them to each other to figure out “what's going on under the hood.” If you'd like to know more about Charlotte, you can connect with her on Bluesky at @charlotteeureka.bsky.social or on her GitHub page charlotteolsen.github.io.
