Did you know that your gut is home to a vast ecosystem of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi and other microbes that play a major role in how your body functions?
This internal community is known as the gut microbiome and it has an impact on everything from digestion and immunity to mood and energy levels.
When the microbiome is balanced, your body can function more smoothly. Nutrients from foods you eat are absorbed more efficiently, your immune response is better regulated and any inflammation is kept in check.
When it becomes imbalanced from stress, diet, medication or your lifestyle, your body may start to show signs of strain.
An imbalanced gut can show up in subtle but noticeable ways, including, but not limited to:
These symptoms are your body’s way of asking for help.
Bone broth is rich in collagen and amino acids like glycine and glutamine, which are known to support the gut lining. It provides this nourishing foundation for rebuilding gut integrity, especially in cases where the lining has become permeable, a condition referred to as “leaky gut.”
In addition to its gut-soothing properties, bone broth helps feed good bacteria in the microbiome, supporting a more balanced and resilient internal system. Think of the micro bosses of your microbiome like the characters in Inside Out.
Broth is also naturally easy for your body to digest, making it a gentle choice for those looking to reduce digestive stress while still getting essential nutrients.
In Ayurveda, digestion is considered the foundation of health. A well-functioning digestive system, also known as a strong agni or digestive fire, is believed to be the key to maintaining vitality and clarity.
When digestion is weak or overloaded, it can disrupt so much internal balance.
Ayurvedic practices emphasize simplicity, warmth and routine. They often begin with food-based resets designed to give the body space to rest and then recalibrate. By focusing on easy-to-digest meals and supportive herbs, the goal is to restore balance without depleting the body, or feeling hungry.
Shorba’s 4 or 7-Day Reset Program is a complete toolkit designed to help you hit the reset button on your gut health.
By combining a comforting mono-diet of khichdi (a traditional rice and mung stew) with nourishing bone broth and Ayurvedic CCF teas, this program gives your digestive system a break while deeply replenishing your body.
Each Reset Program includes:
With the optional ghee add-on (the Ayurvedic “supreme fat”), your meals are even more grounding, buttery, and satisfying.
Whether you’re looking to calm digestive upset, boost your immunity, reduce inflammation, or simply get back on track, the Reset Program is your gentle path to feeling nourished, energized and clear.
Your gut microbiome does so much for you, why not take a few days to return the favour?
