1.Avipattikar churna -( morning evening,half spoon with water)- take only if not diabetic. 2.kamdudha rasa-2-0-2 3 jiva stress free tablet 2 at night What not to eat in Urdhwag Amlapitta / GERD:

#Very spicy, heavily seasoned food (like pickles, rich gravies) #Very oily and deep-fried food. #Very cold or very hot foods (ice cream, extremely hot tea) #Sour foods (tamarind, tomatoes, vinegar, citrus fruits like oranges, sweet lime, lemon) #Coffee and strong tea (caffeine increases acidity) #Chocolate #Soda, cola, and other carbonated drinks (they weaken the valve between the esophagus and stomach) #Processed and junk foods. #Raw onion and garlic (especially in raw form)

What to eat: Light and sattvic meals – like khichdi (rice and lentil dish), porridge, moong dal (yellow lentils), soft chapati. Milk – slightly cool and diluted milk (if tolerated) bottle gourd (lauki), Indian squash (tinda), and pointed gourd (parval) – all light vegetables. Ripe papaya and bananas – soft, non-acidic fruits.

#Water or decoction made from cumin seeds, fennel seeds, and coriander seeds – aids digestion.

#Eat small portions at regular intervals – avoid overeating.

#Buttermilk (chaas) – drink it with a pinch of salt and roasted cumin powder. Important lifestyle tips:

Avoid lying down immediately after eating (wait at least 2–3 hours).

Have a light and early dinner (preferably between 7–8 PM).

Keep your head slightly elevated while sleeping.

Reduce stress (yoga, deep breathing exercises can help).

Hello Sher

PREVENTIVE TREATMENT FOR GERD STAGE 3 ACIDITY PANIC ATTACKS

• WEIGHT MANAGEMENT: Losing weight if overweight or obese can significantly reduce pressure on the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and decrease reflux. • DIETARY ADJUSTMENTS: Identifying and avoiding trigger foods like fatty foods, alcohol, caffeine, chocolate, and spicy foods can minimize reflux episodes. • DE-ADDICTION - Frequently Tea Coffee Chocolate Cessation: Quitting Addictions is crucial as it strengthens the LES and reduces the risk of reflux. • BED ELEVATION: Raising the head of the bed by 6-9 inches can help prevent acid reflux during sleep. • AVOID LYING DOWN AFTER EATING: Waiting at least 3 hours after a meal before lying down or going to bed can reduce the risk of reflux. • SMALLER MEALS: Eating smaller, more frequent meals can reduce pressure on the stomach and minimize reflux. • SLOW EATING: Eating slowly and chewing food thoroughly can improve digestion and reduce the likelihood of reflux. • LOOSE-FITTING CLOTHES: Wearing loose-fitting clothes can reduce pressure on the abdomen and the LES. • CORRECT SLEEP POSITION: Sleeping on the left side may help prevent acid reflux at night. • PRACTICE DYAN MEDITATION:- It helps to control Anxiety and Panic Attacks Peace Calmness mind

Managing GERD and panic anxiety through Ayurveda involves understanding the complexity of both the digestive system and the mind. Let’s start with GERD. This condition often involves an imbalance in the pitta dosha, which can lead to excess acidity and inflammation.

For GERD, focus on cooling and soothing the digestive tract. Include more cooling, pitta-pacifying foods in your diet. You might want to try aloe vera juice, around a couple of tablespoons diluted in water, which can help soothe your stomach lining. Also, consider having coconut water regularly, as it has natural cooling properties. Try to eat your meals at regular intervals, and avoid skipping meals, as this helps maintain healthy digestion.

Regarding the pain near the ribcage, it could be related to GERD or stress-related issues. Practicing pranayama (breathing exercises) such as Anulom Vilom can help calm the nervous system and reduce pain. It’s simple: inhale through one nostril, exhale through the other, and vice versa. Spend about 10-15 minutes daily on this practice.

Now, panic anxiety. It’s likely associated with the aggravation of the vata dosha. Regularity and grounding activities could be beneficial. Abhyanga (self-massage with warm sesame oil) before showering can calm the mind and reduce anxiety levels. Moving away from screens and electronic devices, particularly in the evenings, could also help manage stress and panic.

Incorporating herbs like ashwagandha can be supportive too. It acts as an adaptogen, helping the body manage stress. A gentle teaspoon of ashwagandha powder mixed in warm milk at bedtime might work well.

Since you’ve been trying conventional medicine for a month, and if symptoms persist, please consult with healthcare provider as persistent conditions need immediate attention. Integrating Ayurveda along with professional guidance can provide a holistic approach to your wellbeing.
