'90% diseases gone': Sadhguru’s 2-step formula that starts with body and ends with food
Produced by: Mohsin Shaikh
Body Wisdom
Sadhguru says 80% of disease vanishes when we use the body. Movement is medicine, and idleness is modern illness—echoing life before machines did all the work.
Food Fixes
Another 10% of sickness stems from poor eating. Right food, right time, right intent—his prescription to dodge disease starts on your plate.
Motion Deficit
Today’s humans are “underworked.” Two centuries ago, physical activity was 20–100x more. We’ve outsourced health to convenience—and now it’s costing us.
Timed Meals
Leave 5-6 hours between meals, says Sadhguru. Digest, reset, and then refuel. Constant grazing confuses the gut and dulls inner clarity.
Seasonal Eating
Eat what grows around you, when nature gives it. He says your body syncs better with food that belongs to your soil and season.
Plant Priority
A plant-based diet fuels energy and calm. Sadhguru encourages reducing meat for inner stillness and digestive ease—not just ethics.
Chew Ritual
Chew each bite 24 times. This small act, he claims, sets correct information in the body—turning digestion into a sacred process.
Silent Eating
No talk, just taste. Eating in silence deepens presence and gratitude. For Sadhguru, meals are meditations in motion.
Karmic Factor
The final 10% of disease? Not diet, not lifestyle—it’s karma, environment, or emotion. Some healing comes from inner evolution.
