Anjali’s story
From missing school every month to getting my life back
For years I missed school every month and thought painful periods were just my life. I didn’t know food could change any of that until my mom built Neeshi.
Before Neeshi
- Missing school every month
- Nothing I tried was helping
- Heavy flow, exhausted for 7-8 days
- Hormonal breakouts
- Dreading every period
After Neeshi
- Periods were a short 3 days
- Cramps no longer run my month
- Flow lighter, more manageable
- Skin noticeably calmer
- Back to living my normal life
Cramps so bad I’d miss school, curled up with a heating pad, waiting for it to maybe, kind of, pass. My flow was so heavy, leaks were a constant worry. My skin would break out even worse around my period. I lost days every month just trying to function.
I thought that was just how periods worked. Some people have it worse, some have it better. I happened to be in the worse category. I didn’t know it could be different.
My mom grew up watching her grandmother reach for whole foods and Ayurvedic ingredients before anything else. So she spent months researching what was actually driving my symptoms: prostaglandins, estrogen imbalance, magnesium deficiency, and built something for me out of real ingredients that addressed the root causes. She made it taste like something I’d actually want to eat every day.
I was skeptical. I was also desperate enough to try.
By my second cycle on Neeshi, I felt like myself again.
Word started spreading among our friends. When I’d tell people what had changed for me, I kept hearing “I have that too” or “my daughter has been like this for years.” Mom and I started to understand we weren’t outliers, we were just the first people we knew who had actually found something that worked.
So we ran a proper test. We recruited 18 women, all different ages, all different ethnicities†, and asked them to use Neeshi daily for 3 full cycles while we tracked regular data points. We thought the numbers would tell the story.
What actually told the story were the texts.
“I never thought I could feel this great during my period.”
Nobody asked them to reach out. They just did, unprompted and mid-cycle, because something had shifted and they needed to say so. That consensus became the foundation of everything Neeshi is built on.

If you’re where I was, dreading every month, it doesn’t have to feel this way. My experience is my own; individual results vary.
