Hey, it sounds like you’re really going through it! Dealing with IBS, with diarrhea and acidity, can be annoying, no doubt. We can definitely try to manage this with Ayurveda. Let’s dig into it.
First, the key here is balance your agni, or digestive fire, which seems to be out of whack. With chronic acidity and diarrhea, we might be looking at Pitta imbalance with some Vata playing mischief. So, you’re right to stick with stuff like poha and dal chawal; they’re generally soothing for Pitta.
But let’s tighten this up. Look at eating at regular times - your body loves a schedule! Give warm, cooked foods preference and keep away from anything too oily, spicy, or processed. These can irate Pitta. Try having kanji rice or rice soup - it’s easy on the stomach and balances Pitta and Vata.
Hydration is big here. Sipping on warm water, or herbal teas with fennel or coriander seeds can really settle things down. Plus, these help detoxify and clear acid build-up.
And don’t forget about your stress - it seriously messes with the gut! Some yoga or pranayama might be your jam. Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) is particularly calming.
Because of the diarrhea, make sure you’re replacing fluids - maybe an ayurvedic ORS with a little natural sugar, salt, and water. Since you mentioned haemoglobin, are you feeling fatigued or dizzy? If so, we gotta keep an eye on that.
For practical herb support, considering Triphala - good for digestion and absorption of nutrients. But remember, if symptoms are severe or you’re feeling weak or experiencing significant issues with haemoglobin, it’s important to connect with a doc immediately.
This ain’t a quick fix, but patience is key. Give these steps a shot and see how your body reacts over a week or two. And don’t be shy - reach out if you have more questions.
