'Your stomach will become...': Mukesh Ambani's former health coach Dr. Mickey Mehta gives serious warning against consumption of bread
'Your stomach will become...': Mukesh Ambani's former health coach Dr. Mickey Mehta gives serious warning against consumption of bread Are you among those who consume bread as their staple breakfast meal? If yes, then you need to pause and rethink. This easy and puffy item is a daily breakfast option for the majority of Indian households however, it is not as healthy as you think. Health coach Dr. Mickey Mehta, who has worked with top families such as the Ambanis, Birlas, and even Sachin Tendulkar, recently expressed his worries regarding the daily bread consumption. In a series of comments and a social media post, he made some stern warnings regarding its effect on digestion and overall well-being in the long run. According to Dr. Mehta, consuming white bread daily can cause gut imbalance and toxicity, eventually turning your stomach into a 'gutter'. The health coach further added that white bread is one of the most dangerous yet commonly consumed foods due to its highly processed nature and lack of nutritional value. Recalling a disturbing experience, Dr. Mehta spoke about an experience when his own daughter became dizzy after going overboard with multigrain bread consumption. During medical examination, physicians diagnosed her with Auto-Brewery Syndrome, an unusual condition where undigested carbohydrates ferment in the intestine and produce alcohol-like symptoms. The startling discovery pointed out the hidden risk of processed carbohydrates. Dr. Mehta also stressed that if one cannot completely stop having bread, one should have it only when they are very hungry and do not have anything else to eat. He suggests having it with psyllium husk (Isabgol) at night or in the morning to cleanse the intestines. He also cautioned that the gut is most affected by regular bread consumption and that it can significantly interfere with digestion. He said that bread, particularly white bread, is fiber-deficient, causes bloating, raises blood sugar, and could even be a cause of long-term health issues. According to research, it has also been found that this high-carb, low-nutrition item also has a high glycemic index that can lead to a spike in blood sugar level, heart diseases, and obesity if overconsumed. While it may increase your serotonin and make you feel content, it may be adversely affecting your digestive health. The next time you grab a slice, it may be worth taking a moment and asking: Is this truly the best option for my body?

Ambanis, Sachin Tendulkar's health coach reveals why bread is ‘gutter' for your gut: ‘Most dangerous thing you can eat'
Do you eat bread every day for breakfast, perhaps without even thinking twice about it? Many of us reach for that comforting slice, unaware of how it might be affecting our health in the long run. Dr. Mickey Mehta, holistic health coach, often shares insights related to health and wellness with his Insta family. He was the wellness coach to several top industrialists and celebrities, including the Ambanis and even Sachin Tendulkar. In his February 21 post, he boldly stated, "Your gut will become a gutter if you eat bread every day." Here's why he believes it's time to rethink your daily bread habit.

He shares that when he asks people about their breakfast choices, he often hears responses like, "I had tea and bread," "I had omelette and bread," "I had jam and bread," or even 'I had poha and bread.' A post shared by Dr. Mickey Mehta (@mickey_mehta) He adds, "The white bread is the most dangerous thing you can ever eat. Auto brewery syndrome, which is what I encountered recently with my daughter." Dr. Mehta then tells the story of his daughter's health scare. She suddenly began feeling dizzy and light-headed, describing it as feeling 'high, like alcohol.' Initially, it seemed like a one-off incident, but the next day, things took a more serious turn. They rushed her to the hospital, and thankfully, everything turned out normal. But Dr. Mehta says they soon realised that she had been consuming multigrain bread in large quantities, which led to what he calls "Auto Brewery Syndrome." He explains, "Auto Brewery Syndrome means undigested bread turns into ethanol, or alcohol, which gives you the kind of feeling you get when you've had too much alcohol." Dr. Mehta urges his followers to rethink their bread habit, saying, "It's not just about avoiding Auto Brewery Syndrome, it's about avoiding bread completely because bread can literally kill you. Bread chokes your intestines, whether you have it toasted or untoasted." Dr. Mehta suggests that if you absolutely can't give up bread, eat it only when you're extremely hungry and nothing else is available. He also recommends incorporating Isabgol (psyllium husk) into your routine. "Isabgol can be had at night or first thing in the morning, so the sandwich effect of the swollen psyllium husk helps to cleanse your intestines and pushes the bread out."

Auto Brewery Syndrome: Eating Store-Bought Bread Daily May Invite This Rare Disease
Last Updated: Dr. Mickey Mehta warns that regular bread consumption can cause Auto Brewery Syndrome, where yeast in bread produces ethanol in the stomach, mimicking alcohol intoxication In today's fast-paced life, many people opt for store-bought bread instead of homemade rotis made from flour. However, regular consumption of bread can lead to serious health issues. Dr Mickey Mehta has issued a warning on his social media page, advising against eating bread on a regular basis due to the risk of developing a rare disease known as Auto Brewery Syndrome. Dr Mehta explained that bread contains yeast, which is essential for its preparation. When consumed frequently, the yeast can proliferate rapidly in the stomach. This excessive growth of yeast causes the bacteria in the stomach to ferment carbohydrates from food, leading to the production of ethanol. Ethanol, a component of alcohol, can cause intoxication and becomes a poison in the stomach, resulting in Auto Brewery Syndrome. Auto Brewery Syndrome, also referred to as gut fermentation syndrome, is an intestinal condition where ethanol is produced in the intestine without the consumption of alcohol. The disease is caused by an increase in yeast or fungus, particularly Saccharomyces or Candida, due to regular bread consumption. Individuals with this syndrome experience an increase in ethanol levels in their bodies whenever they consume sweet foods, as yeast rapidly converts carbohydrates into ethanol. First Published:
