Summary

Kelly welcomes Dr. Chiti Parikh, one of the leading integrative medicine physicians in the country and the founder of Integrative Health & Wellbeing at Weill Cornell Medicine, New York Presbyterian Hospital. Dr. Parikh's first book, Intentional Health: Detoxify, Nourish and Rejuvenate Your Body into Balance is a comprehensive roadmap that empowers individuals to take charge of their health through five thousand years of science, combining ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science.

She gives Kelly massive insight on simple ways to set intentions with your body that don't rely on fad diets, deprivation or throwing another pill at the problem.
Dr. Parikh addresses:

- Getting in tune with your circadian rhythm

- Why digestion and gut health are actually the most important

- Getting to the root cause

- The power of positivity and how emotions impact our health (it's all connected)

- 28 day reset

She is full of insight, but puts it all in easily digestible (pun intended) terms for the listeners to get their year started off right!
