Life & Work with Aset August of Aiken

Today we’d like to introduce you to Aset August.

Hi Aset, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I didn’t choose this holistic path… it chose me the moment my body broke down and nobody could tell me why.

Back in the military, I was handed a thick self-diagnosis handbook with over 400 pages of preventive medicine and home remedies. At the time, I didn’t know that little book would become the foundation of my life’s purpose. But after years of unexplained symptoms, toxic medications, gut issues, inflammation, and doctors shrugging their shoulders, I realized something: nobody was coming to save me.

So I became my own healer.

I studied everything-detoxing, food pairing, circadian eating, acid-alkaline balance, gut-scum removal, herbs, enzymes, emotional health, mineral balancing and I applied it on myself first. I detoxed my own body when doctors couldn’t figure it out. I healed naturally when the system failed me.

And every breakthrough I had became a blueprint for someone else.

People started asking for help. Then more people. Then people came with the same pain I once carried confusion, fatigue, fear, inflammation, digestive issues, emotional overwhelm, and feeling ignored by the system.

My personal healing turned into a mission. My mission turned into a practice.
And my practice turned into Religion of Health, a place where people can learn to be their own doctor, reclaim their body, and walk back into alignment with nature, spirit, and truth.

I didn’t build this business for money.
I built it because I survived something most people are still silently suffering from and I refuse to watch anyone go through it alone.

That is how I got here and why I stayed here.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
They path is easy because I’m in my true purpose and I’m spiritual guided.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I specialize in gut support and helping people understand the deep connection between the mind, the gut, and emotional alignment. My work is rooted in the truth that the gut isn’t just a digestive organ — it’s a communication center that shapes how we think, how we feel, and how we heal. When the gut is compromised, the mind becomes cloudy. When the gut is restored, clarity, confidence, and emotional balance return.

I’m widely known for my signature herbal spice blend QRT (Quick Response Tonic) — a powerful, holistic formula designed to repair, de-scum, and reset the gut lining. QRT has helped countless people rebuild their gut health naturally, calm inflammation, and reconnect to the mental clarity they’ve been missing.

Outside of gut repair, I’m also known for New Orleans Spice Wholistic cooking and food-pairing education. I teach people how to combine foods in ways that support digestion, increase mineral absorption, and align with the body’s natural healing rhythms. My cooking style blends culture, science, tradition, and intuitive wellness into something that finally makes holistic eating simple and sustainable.

What I’m most proud of is how far I’ve come and how my message has touched people. The respect I’ve earned in the holistic community didn’t come from shortcuts-it came from lived experience, constant study, and a genuine desire to help people heal in ways the system often overlooks. People appreciate my approach because it’s honest, it’s rooted in real results, and it never comes from a place of extremism — only balance, clarity, and truth.

What sets me apart is the way I bridge gut science, mindset, detoxing, and holistic cooking into one unified method. I don’t just address symptoms; I help people understand the deeper story behind their imbalances so they can reclaim their health from the inside out.

What was your favorite childhood memory?
Growing up to only remember that my journey didn’t start as an adult but as a young girl reading my mother’s medical books. The terminology and intricacies were intriguing to me at age 8.
