I was supposed to be a dentist.

Perfect scores. Top of my class. The whole trajectory laid out—degree, practice, respectable life. Then I walked into dental school and something broke.

Not me. My faith in the system.

I watched brilliant people memorize protocols instead of understanding bodies. I saw a curriculum designed to treat mouths like they existed in isolation—disconnected from the gut, the brain, the sleep, the stress, the life attached to that mouth. I asked questions that didn’t have boxes to check. And I realized: I can’t do this. Not like this.

So I left.

During Covid. Peak uncertainty. Everyone thought I’d lost my mind. Maybe I had. But I knew I’d already lost something worse—my belief that the path I was on would actually help people.

Three and a half years in the wilderness.

No degree. No institution. Just me and an obsession.

I read. Hundreds of papers. Thousands of articles. Textbooks, journals, blogs, podcasts, lectures—anything I could get my hands on. I talked to people. Doctors who felt trapped in their own system. Patients who’d been failed by it. I ran experiments. On myself first. Then with others who trusted me enough to try something different.

One-on-one. Person by person. No protocols. No shortcuts.

I learned more in those three and a half years than I would have in a decade of traditional training. Not because I’m smarter. Because I was free. Free to follow the thread wherever it led. Free to ask: what actually works?

And here’s what I found.

We’ve been solving the wrong problem.

A woman came to me. Forty-two. Successful. Couldn’t get out of bed. She’d seen psychiatrists, therapists, tried three different medications. Nothing worked. Everyone was focused on her depression.

I asked her when she last slept through the night.

She laughed. “I have two kids and a startup. I haven’t slept in six years.”

Six years. Her body had been screaming for six years, and everyone was asking about her mood.

We didn’t talk about depression. We talked about sleep. About what she was eating at 10pm to get through emails. About the fact that she hadn’t moved her body with intention in months.

Eight weeks later, she called me crying. Not sad. Relieved. “I forgot what it felt like to be me.”

She didn’t need another pill. She needed someone to treat her like a system.

Here’s the truth that keeps me up at night.

Your body is not a collection of parts. It’s one system. Interconnected. Adaptive. Constantly adjusting—your blood chemistry shifting every second, your genes turning on and off in response to every meal, every thought, every sleepless night.

You cannot solve a multidimensional equation with linear thinking.

But that’s exactly what modern medicine tries to do. Symptom appears. Specialist assigned. Treatment prescribed. Next patient.

Meanwhile, the root cause sits there. Growing. Waiting.

By the time anxiety surfaces, the soil was poisoned years ago. By the time the diagnosis comes, your body has been compensating, adapting, struggling—until one day, it can’t.

I’ve seen it too many times. The 35-year-old executive who “had everything under control” until his heart stopped on a Tuesday morning. The mother who pushed through exhaustion for a decade and now can’t remember her children’s middle names. The kid—twenty-three years old—already on two medications because no one thought to ask what he was eating for breakfast.

This isn’t a healthcare crisis. It’s a blindness crisis. We’re staring at the smoke and ignoring the fire.

There is no “mental health.” There is only health.

We’ve created this false separation. Body over here. Mind over there. Specialists for each silo. But your brain runs on the same blood as your heart. Your mood is manufactured in your gut. Your resilience is built—or broken—while you sleep.

You are one system. And that system has laws.

Break them long enough, and something breaks in you.

I’m not here to replace your doctor.

Medicine has its place. When you’re in crisis, you need intervention. I respect that.

But I’m here for what happens before the crisis. And what happens after. I’m here for the stuff no one’s paying attention to—the daily inputs, the upstream choices, the foundation that determines whether you thrive or just survive.

Three pillars. That’s it.

How you eat. Not diets. Not trends. Understanding that food is information—every bite telling your cells what to do, what to become.

How you sleep. Not “getting enough rest.” Actual sleep. The kind that repairs, consolidates, rebuilds. The kind most of us haven’t experienced in years.

How you move. Not punishment. Not performance. Movement as medicine. As regulation. As the thing your body has been begging for.

These aren’t wellness tips. These are biological imperatives. Get them wrong, and everything downstream suffers—your mood, your clarity, your immune system, your longevity, your life.

Get them right, and you build something that holds.


4P Medicine. This is where we’re headed.

The future isn’t more specialists. It’s not more drugs. It’s not better scans.

It’s this:

Predictive. Catching the fire before there’s smoke.

Preventive. Building systems so strong they don’t break.

Personalized. Because your genes aren’t my genes. Your stress isn’t my stress. Your solution can’t be my solution.

Participatory. You in the driver’s seat. Not a passive patient. An active participant in your own health.

This is how medicine should be practiced. This is how life should be lived.

Not waiting for the breakdown. Building so the breakdown never comes.

I dropped out of dental school during a pandemic.

Everyone thought it was the worst decision I’d ever make.

It was the best.

Because now I get to do this. Work at the root. Person by person. System by system. Helping people remember what it feels like to actually be well—not managed, not medicated, not “fine.”

Well.I want you to make a very professional infographic with gold, red, black, and white colors, very modern typography and fonts. I want you to use the same font as I did in this video. Let’s get started.

So let me ask you.

When was the last time you woke up and felt ready? Not dragging yourself to coffee. Not bargaining with your alarm. Ready.

When was the last time your body felt like an ally instead of an obstacle?

When was the last time you trusted yourself to handle what’s coming?

If you have to think about it, it’s been too long.

You are a system. A beautiful, complex, resilient system. But resilience has limits. And those limits are tested every single day—by what you eat, how you sleep, whether you move.

You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to pay attention.

And you have to start.


I’m Rohit.

Human biologist. Professional sleeper. Dental school dropout. Obsessive reader. Relentless experimenter.

I’m not here to sell you a program. I’m here to wake you up.

Your health isn’t something that happens to you. It’s something you build. Brick by brick. Day by day. Choice by choice.

Stone strong. Stable. From the root.

The question is: are you ready to build?
