From Gut to Great: Babita’s Journey to Mental & Physical Wellness | Hot Stories Cambridge
At this month’s Hot Stories Cambridge, Babita, founder of New Chapter Nutrition & Training Services, shared a timely and powerful story for Mental Health Awareness Week—one that blended personal truth, professional expertise, and a mission to transform how we support our minds and bodies.
Having faced her own mental health struggles—including thyroid imbalance and the threat of lifelong medication—Babita chose to explore a holistic path. What she discovered changed everything.
“I didn’t know I was healing my gut—but when I did, my mind followed.”
Today, she’s dedicated to helping businesses, schools, colleges, and universities understand the life-changing link between gut health and mental health—especially for autistic children, those with ADHD, and women navigating perimenopause.
🧠 Did You Know?
80% of autistic children have gut-related issues
Leaky gut is common in those with ADHD traits
The gut-brain axis impacts up to 60% of mood and behaviour
During perimenopause, mental health symptoms can intensify tenfold—often misread or masked in high-functioning women
Babita’s mission is to create psychological safety in workplaces and schools—spaces where women, children, and families can get support without shame or misunderstanding.
🧬 The Gut Axis Programme
Babita now offers a 28-day gut transformation kit, which includes:
5 targeted supplements to rebalance the gut microbiome
Diet adjustments to eliminate inflammation
Lifestyle shifts that create long-term change
“It’s not about ditching medicine—it’s about giving your body the chance to heal from the root.”
Through this programme, Babita has helped clients:
Reduce or come off blood pressure medication
Reverse type 2 diabetes
Regain clarity, balance, and mental wellbeing
