Thyroid and weight loss - #1258

Okay, let’s see what we can do here with some Ayurvedic insights. Sounds like you’re on a good track with yoga and healthier habits; that’s always a strong beginning.

First, about taking triphala churna and medohar guggulu, it can be done. They both work well together for assisting weight loss, especially when there’s hypothyroidism and PCOD in play. But before starting any herbal regimen, it’s key to consult first with your healthcare provider or Ayurvedic practitioner, just to make sure there’s no interactions with any meds or conditions you may have overlooked.

For triphala churna, you can indeed take it at night before going to bed, usually half to one teaspoon with warm water. It aids digestion and gently detoxifies, which is good 'cause that digestive fire (agni) needs to be strong to metabolize properly.

Now for medohar guggulu, 1 tablet is okay, and taking it with warm water post-lunch sounds solid. This particular guggulu formulation is aimed at reducing meda dhatu or excess fat tissue, aiding weight management especially connected to hormonal issues.

Hrm, with hypothyroidism and PCOD, balancing those hormones is crucial. Warm, well-cooked, and lightly spiced food supports your digestive system better than raw or overly cold foods. Stuff like warming spices — ginger, cinnamon, and fennel — are gonna help keep that digestive fire roaring.

Hydration, don’t skip that. But avoid too much cold water; prefer warm or room-temp beverages. Also, try to have your meals at regular intervals, aligning with the body’s natural circadian rhythm boosts your metabolism’s timing.

Find time for activities that manage stress levels. Keep that cortisol, you know, adversity hormone, in check which affects weight and hormones. Short walks, meditation maybe… simple stuff like breathing exercises.

A little patience and consistency go a long way here. Be kind to yourself during this journey, it’s a marathon, not a sprint. And always seek professional advice when you feel unsure. Hope this helps a bit!
