The MitoRoot Lens

Your patient's body
tells a story.
Learn to read it.

From the gut to the liver to the mitochondria — every chronic condition has a biological trail. Functional medicine follows it to the source.

Liver — the metabolic hub Processes toxins, fats & hormones. Central to NAFLD, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.
Gut — the root signaller The gut-liver axis: dysbiosis drives hepatic inflammation and systemic immune dysregulation.
Mitochondria — the energy core Dysfunction here is the common thread in fatigue, PCOS, and all chronic metabolic disease.

Who's Behind This

Built by a practitioner, for practitioners.

The doctor who chose to ask "why" — and never stopped.

Dr. Ashwani Garg
Dr. Ashwani Garg
Clinical Lead · Founding Member, IAFM
10+ years in clinical functional medicine, an expert in autism spectrum care, and 1000+ patients consulted across complex chronic cases. A conventionally trained doctor who turned to functional medicine after seeing what it could do for patients conventional care had given up on.
What is Functional Medicine?

Medicine that asks why, not just what.

Conventional medicine names your disease. Functional medicine finds what caused it. That shift changes everything — for you, and for your patients.

Most chronic diseases — fatty liver, PCOS, thyroid dysfunction, Type 2 diabetes — don't arise from nowhere. They are the end result of years of dysfunction in the body's underlying systems: the gut, the mitochondria, hormones, and inflammation pathways.

Functional medicine uses the IFM Matrix to map each patient's unique web of triggers, mediators, and antecedents. Instead of silencing symptoms with medication, you address the actual cause.

For Indian patients, this matters more than anywhere else. India has unique dietary patterns, stress profiles, and genetic predispositions. Western FM frameworks don't translate directly. MitoRoot courses are built around the Indian clinical context from the ground up.

What practitioners are saying.

From nutritionists to doctors to health coaches — here's what early course reviewers shared.

The IFM Matrix fundamentally changed how I approach consultations. For the first time, I'm actually asking why my patients are sick — not just prescribing for their latest report.

The Foundations course is unlike anything available in India. The case studies use Indian diets, Indian lab normals, and Indian stress patterns. It's finally relevant to my actual practice.

I was sceptical of another online course. But the root-cause framework made me completely rethink my approach. My clients are asking different questions now — and so am I.

As an Ayurvedic practitioner, I've always believed in root-cause healing. MitoRoot gave me the modern clinical language to explain it to patients who want science alongside tradition.
