About WellthGreen Foundation
Vision
The WellthGreen Foundation Trust was established with the vision of shifting healthcare from a disease-centric model to one that prioritizes prevention, wellness, and long-term vitality. The Trust is deeply rooted in the personal and professional journey of Dr. Mythri Shankar, whose own health experience became a catalyst for its creation. After being diagnosed with diabetes, Dr. Shankar chose to work intensively with lifestyle-based interventions rather than relying solely on medication. Through this journey, she witnessed firsthand the transformative power of nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep, and behavioral change—not just in reversing metabolic markers, but in restoring overall well-being.
As a physician trained in conventional medicine, Dr. Shankar recognized a significant lacuna in the healthcare system: patients were being treated for diseases, but not adequately supported in understanding or addressing the root causes. This realization led her to write a book, deliver a TED Talk, and engage in public education around lifestyle medicine and preventive health. However, she soon realized that awareness alone was not enough—there was a need for structured, accessible, and scalable platforms that could translate knowledge into sustained action.
The WellthGreen Foundation Trust was formed to bridge this gap. It serves as a means to bring together education, early detection, community engagement, and integrative wellness strategies under one umbrella. Guided by Dr. Shankar’s lived experience and clinical insight, the Trust is committed to empowering individuals to take charge of their health and to redefining wellness as a proactive, lifelong journey rather than a reactive response to illness
