Meet MNM - Mausam Nihalani Mascarelli

While healthy eating is important, optimum health is more than just food. Creating a healthier mind and body begins with being absolutely happy. This includes time with our “primary foods” (the foods that fuel us outside of our plate like relationships, career, spirituality and physical activity.

For me, being healthy isn’t about wearing a size 2 or running a half marathon. It is about waking up each day and being alive and excited to live life with a sense of enthusiasm and making each day better than the last. It is about how good and energetic one feels and making “healthy a way of life”

In the fall of 2012, my son Aidan got diagnosed with a rare kidney disease called Nephrotic Syndrome. Our lives changed forever. Nephrotic Syndrome is an auto-immune condition in which kidneys leak protein into the blood. This caused Aidan to have swelling all over his body due to fluid retention. Besides the treatments like steroids and immunosuppressants that stop the spilling of protein, patients also deal with side-effects of those drugs. I dived deep into research and discovered all about health. We saw many different healers and alternative therapies in search for a cure and better treatments. During this time, I too due to stress and poor lifestyle choices triggered an underlying auto-immune condition called fatty liver disease. 

Coming from an Indian background where home cooking together with herbs and healing foods was part of my childhood, my next few years were spent in our “Kitchen Lab” with major success. With each passing month, we both got better with lifestyle changes such as diet shifts, natural foods, stress management modalities and supplements. I gained energy, cured my digestive issues, lost weight, improved blood work and helped Aidan stay off additional medicines that usually come with prolonged steroid use.  While Aidan is not completely drug free yet, I’m certain that day is not far when he will be able to stay in remission sans drugs.

My new found life and passion for health and wellness pulled me to enroll at The Institute of Integrative Nutrition.
