Alright, let’s dive right in. When dealing with pitta vomiting, the approach is typically to cool down the excess heat and soothe the digestive system. Your suggestions are spot on!
Let’s start with coriander seed water. So, it definitely does have cooling properties that are pretty effective in balancing pitta dosha. You can boil a tablespoon of coriander seeds in about two cups of water till it reduces to a cup, let it cool and then sip it throughout the day. Do this 1-2 times daily. It’s gentle and can be very soothing for the stomach.
Next up is amla. It’s indeed a powerful ally in managing pitta imbalances because of its cooling nature and high vitamin C content. Fresh amla juice is great if you can tolerate the sourness — 10-20 ml mixed with water in the morning. Amla powder is another option, maybe 1/2 tsp mixed with lukewarm water. If your stomach is sensitive, start with small doses and watch how you feel.
Coconut water is like magic, honestly, it’s natural, cooling, and rehydrating which really helps calm things down. Sipping on it in small amounts during the day is quite beneficial, especially after episodes of vomiting, but avoid drinking it too quickly as that might upset your stomach more.
Mint and cumin are both awesome. Mint tea is commonly soothing, just steep a few leaves in hot water and sip slowly. Chewing fresh mint leaves can be as effective but isn’t everyone’s cup of tea! Cumin seeds can be roasted and taken with a pinch of rock salt after meals to aid digestion and reduce nausea. Combining mint, cumin, and coriander in a tea blend would maximize the soothing effects.
Dietary and lifestyle tweaks also help. Avoid spicy, oily, and heavy-to-digest foods. Focus on cooling foods like cucumber, melons, and steamed vegetables. Practice mindfulness and avoid stress, as it aggravates pitta.
Everyone’s different, so listen to your body! If any remedy worsens your symptoms, it’s best to stop it and maybe have a quick chat with an Ayurvedic practitioner.
