HELLO TEJAS,
Your symptoms MIXED-TYPE irritable bowel syndrome, where both Constipation and diarrhoea alternate, along with gas and sometime acidity
These are classic IBS- related issues, but the pattern also shows some digestive fire imbalance, and possibly vata-kapha aggravation, with mild pitta involvement due to occasional diarrhoea
Your symptoms are consistent with “GRAHANI ROGA” in Ayurveda- a dysfunction of the small intestine where digestion and absorption are compromised. The underlying Doshi involvement is Vata-Kpaha predominant IBS with occasional pitta aggravation (diarrhoea episodes) -Vata is responsible for irregular bowel movement, burping, gas and cramps -kapha is causing sluggish digestion , sense of heaviness and incomplete evacuation -Pitta flare ups may be responsible for loose stools after meals
THE ROOT CAUSE IN AYURVEDA IS -agni mandya(low digestive fire)-leading to ama(toxins) -Apana Vata vitiation= improper downward movement of wastes - Manasika doshas(mind-body link)- stress, anxiety, worry also disturbs vata
TREATMENT GOAL -restore digestive fire - balance vata kapha doshas - cleanse the gut-removes ama and improves motility - prevent stress induced flares - improves absorption and nutrition to restore appetite and strength

hello Tejas ,
You’re not alone in this what you’re going through is real, and it’s completely valid to feel frustrated. When your stomach feels full of gas, heavy, or acidic, and your mind starts racing with thoughts, that’s not a coincidence. In Ayurveda, your gut and your mind are deeply connected. When your digestion is weak (we call it Mandagni), it creates toxins (Ama) that not only disturb your stomach, but also cloud your thoughts and disturb your sleep. That’s why you feel irritated, anxious, or overthinking even without a clear reason — your body and mind are both asking for balance, not just relief from gas or acidity.
This is not just a digestion problem it’s a whole system imbalance, especially in Vata and Pitta. The gas is pressing your nerves, your thoughts feel heavy, your mood shifts quickly, and sleep becomes shallow. Healing here means resetting your digestion gently, calming your nervous system, and rebuilding inner strength — one step at a time.
Treatment Plan
Step 1 – Ama Pachana (for first 5 days):
Hingvashtaka Churna – 1 tsp with warm water after meals, twice daily Jeerakadyarishta – 15 ml + 15 ml warm water twice daily after food Sip warm water infused with ajwain, jeera, and saunf throughout the day
Step 2 – Internal Medicines (from Day 6 onwards):
Avipattikara Churna – ½ tsp at bedtime with warm water Sutshekhar Ras (Plain) – 1 tablet twice daily after food with honey Manasamitra Vatakam – 1 tablet at bedtime with warm water or warm milk
Daily Lifestyle Support
Do Nadi Shodhana Pranayama twice daily (10–15 minutes) to calm the gut-brain link Eat warm, simple meals – avoid raw salads, fermented foods, or fried items Avoid cold drinks, caffeine, or frequent snacking Massage feet with warm sesame oil before bed, then wash with warm water Keep mealtimes and sleep time regular, even if you don’t feel hungry or sleepy
Investigations (if not done recently): CBC, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D TSH (thyroid) Stool routine + occult blood Optional: Serum serotonin, cortisol levels (helps in gut-brain symptoms)
This is reversible. With the right daily care, your digestion will stabilise, the overthinking will settle, and sleep will return naturally.
Be gentle with yourself. Your body is not broken — it’s just tired, and it’s asking you to slow down and listen. Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

For managing IBS and related gastric issues, we look towards a balanced approach deeply rooted in Ayurvedic practices. IBS often ties back to vata dosha imbalances, where excess air element within the digestive tract can create gas, bloating, and disturbances such as anxiety or mood shifts. Here are some steps you can take:
1. Dietary Adjustments: Start by nurturing your digestion. Favor warm, cooked meals over raw ones, as they are easier to digest and help balance vata dosha. Incorporate spices like cumin, fennel, ginger, and turmeric in moderate amont to enhance digestion and reduce gas. It’s essential to avoid or limit foods known to trigger gas or bloating - such as beans, cabbage, cauliflower, and overly spicy foods.
2. Herbal Support: Consider Triphala powder, which is commonly used to support digestion, taken before bedtime with warm water. Additionally, hing or asafetida when added to dishes can help alleviate gas and bloating.
3. Routine and Lifestyle: Regularity is key. Eat at consistent times daily and avoid skipping meals. Practice mindful eating—chewing thoroughly and avoiding eating while stressed or distracted.
4. Yoga and Pranayama: Gentle yoga postures such as Pawanmuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) and Apanasana (Knees-to-Chest Pose) can help in releasing gas and reducing bloating. Pranayama techniques like Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing) are effective in calming the mind and supporting overall digestive health.
5. Sleep and Mind: Establish a calming nighttime routine to induce deep sleep. Avoid screens before bed and try sipping on warm milk infused with a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom before sleep. Practicing guided meditation or mindful breathing before bed can help quell overthinking and stress.
If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s advisable to consult with a healthcare professional to explore further tailored treatments. Ayurveda offers a wider range of therapies and dietary guidelines, but these steps provide a foundational approach to start improving digestive well-being and health.
Managing IBS and gastric issues through Siddha-Ayurvedic practices involves addressing your body’s unique dosha imbalances which seem to be primarily related to vata and pitta. These are often the culprits behind gas, acidity, and associated mood swings. Here’s a practical approach you can follow.
Firstly, let’s focus on diet as it’s crucial to balance your doshas. Avoid foods that aggravate vata and pitta. This means steering clear of overly spicy, sour, or fried foods. Instead, opt for freshly cooked, easy-to-digest meals like kichadi, which promotes digestive harmony. Include ginger and fennel in your meals to soothe the digestive tract and balance agni, or digestive fire.
Incorporate some lifestyle changes as well. Regularity can be key for balancing vata, so try to eat meals at the same times every day and maintain a consistent sleep schedule. You could also benefit from practices like abhyanga, which is self-massage with warm sesame oil. This can pacify vata by grounding and calming the mind, indirectly supporting better sleep.
For the overthinking, meditation or pranayama (breathing exercises) may help stabilize the mind. Anulom vilom or alternate nostril breathing can be particularly effective in balancing vata.
Ensure you stay hydrated but avoid drinking excessive water during meals. Manage stress, which can exacerbate IBS, with yoga asanas like Vajrasana or Trikonasana that aid in digestion.
If symptoms are severe or persistent, consider consulting with a qualified practitioner for a personalized regimen and to rule out any underlying conditions. It’s also important to pay attention to your body and seek immediate care if you notice any drastic changes or severe discomfort.
