Xanthelasma, the yellowish deposits around the eyes, often results from lipid imbalances even if cholesterol levels appear normal. In Ayurveda, these could be connected to imbalances in Kapha dosha, which might lead to other bodily tissue disturbances (dhatu vitiation).
Addressing digestion effectively, optimizing your metabolism and cleansing channels (srotas) could prove beneficial. Emphasizing a Kapha-pacifying diet is crucial. Incorporate more whole grains, leafy greens, and a variety of spices such as turmeric and black pepper, known for their metabolic-enhancing properties. While preparing meals, use moderate amounts of healthy fats like ghee for its cleansing properties on cellular levels.
Daily habits should include warm ayurvedic teas, prepared from ginger and cinnamon, which can help balance Kapha and Vata doshas. Drink these about half an hour after meals to aid digestion and clear any toxins—what we term ‘ama’—from your system.
At night, a Triphala supplement which has gud properties for balancing Agni (digestive fire) and supports clearing out bodily channels can be helpful. Take a teaspoon with warm water or mix it with honey, before bed.
Additionally, having a regular physical routine that include gentle types of exercise—like yoga or brisk walking—stimulates circulation and aids in lipid metabolism.
Attention to emotional wellness is equally important. Practices like meditation can help managing stress and balance your doshas.
It might also be beneficial to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized advice, as individual variabilities in constitution or prakriti require specific interventions. However, keep monitoring your cholesterol levels occasionally, since fluctuations may still occur, and periodic evaluations should be considered.
