What if I told you sunlight could save a life?

Recently, Steven Bartlett interviewed Dr. Roger Seheult, who shared how lifestyle shifts can reduce disease risk by 40%.

In my practice as a Functional Medicine Doctor in India, I see this truth daily. Sometimes, what medicines can’t do, nature does effortlessly.

Here are 5 revelations that resonate deeply with my Indian patients:

• A Delhi boy with drug-resistant TB healed faster when I prescribed daily sunlight therapy. Just like a US patient Dr. Seheult spoke of — saved by sun, not medicine.

• Avoiding the sun is as deadly as smoking. 76% of urban Indians are vitamin D deficient (ICMR, 2019), the same group struggling with diabetes and heart disease.

• Hospital beds by windows heal faster. A cardiac patient of mine improved his anxiety & recovery simply by moving his routine to his terrace garden.

• Forest bathing isn’t new. Japan calls it therapy. We called it Van Vihar. My stressed IT patients lower sugar levels just by weekend walks in Lodhi Garden.

• Your bedroom must be a cave. Even tiny LEDs kill melatonin. A Mumbai PCOS patient fixed her insomnia in 3 weeks after making her room Amarnath dark.

Modern science is only proving what our ancestors already knew.

The difference is I integrate both worlds to help Indians reverse diabetes, heal gut health, and reclaim energy.

Medicines manage disease. Lifestyle reverses it.
