This started with my mum. A few years ago she was recovering from a serious illness, and none of the medical advice we received fit how our family actually eats. Telling a South Asian family to "eat more vegetables and less carbs" without understanding that our entire cultural food identity is built around dal, roti, rice, and sabzi is not advice—it's a translation error.

Rather than waiting for the right guidance to arrive, I changed the way I cooked for her. Her food, adjusted, not replaced. Within a year, she had recovered fully.

Ishani Health is that idea, built at scale.
