25. Mona Sharma: The Shocking Role Your Gut Plays in Cravings and Fatigue

Feeling stuck with your health? Maybe you're doing all the right things—or at least you think you are—but you're still not seeing the results you want. It’s frustrating, right? But here’s the thing: modern life is working against you. Chronic stress, hidden toxins in your environment, and mixed messages about what actually works—it’s no wonder so many of us feel lost when it comes to wellness.

In today’s episode of Extend with Dr. Shah, I’m sitting down with Mona Sharma—nutritionist, wellness expert, and someone who truly gets what it takes to turn things around. We’re diving into the real reasons you might not be feeling your best, from the role of your gut health to how stress affects your body more than you realize.

We also share simple, actionable ways to detox your life—without feeling overwhelmed—and how to build daily habits that stick, so you can finally feel like the best version of yourself.

Mona Sharma is a leading voice in the wellness space, blending her background in integrative nutrition with her expertise in mindfulness and Ayurveda. Mona’s worked with top athletes, A-list celebrities, and people just like you to rebuild their health from the inside out.

If you’re ready to break free from the cycle of exhaustion, stress, and frustration, you’re going to love this conversation.
