Podcast: 1173 From Personal Challenge to Purpose-Driven Business: Arshad Bahl’s Journey with Amrita Health Foods

In a recent episode of Inside Personal Growth, host Greg Voisen spoke with Arshad Bahl, founder of Amrita Health Foods, about his inspiring path from personal challenges to building a health-conscious brand. Arshad’s journey began when his son was diagnosed with autism and severe gastrointestinal issues. Seeking solutions beyond conventional treatments, Arshad embarked on a mission to improve his son’s health through a low-inflammation diet. This dedication led to the creation of Amrita Health Foods—a company committed to making allergen-free, plant-based snacks that support both gut health and overall well-being.

A Mission Rooted in Wellness and Community

Arshad’s journey reflects his belief that food can be a powerful tool for wellness. Inspired by the connection between gut health and autism, Amrita Health Foods offers nutritious, allergen-free bars made from simple, clean ingredients. Each product is designed to support a range of dietary needs, from low-sugar and nut-free options to vegan and soy-free offerings, providing nutritious snacks for individuals and families. Beyond nutrition, Arshad’s commitment to community stands out. Recognizing the high unemployment rate among young adults with autism, Amrita Health Foods proudly employs young adults on the autism spectrum, providing them with meaningful work in packaging and production. Through partnerships with nonprofits, Arshad’s mission extends to creating a supportive work environment where his team can thrive.

Supporting Small Businesses with Purpose

Arshad’s story is a powerful reminder of the positive impact small businesses can have when they remain authentic and focused on a purpose.
