To aid in your daughter’s height increase at age 14, ayurveda focuses on nurturing the body’s growth with appropriate diet and lifestyle practices. During this active growth phase, balancing vata and promoting kapha can be beneficial, as these are involved with skeletal growth and tissue nourishment.
Aahar, or diet, plays a crucial role. Incorporate foods rich in calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D, like almonds, sesame seeds, figs, and leafy greens. These support the development of the asthi dhatu (bone tissue). For digestion and absorption, ensure her agni (digestive fire) is balanced. Trikatu churna, a blend of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger, can be taken in small amounts, such as a pinch mixed with honey before meals to enhance digestion.
Exercise is equally important. Encourage regular practice of Surya Namaskar and Tadasana. These asanas stretch the spine and stimulate growth hormones. A daily routine of yoga not only helps physically but balances doshas mentally as well.
Ashwagandha, a revered ayurvedic herb, can be helpful. It enhances overall vitality and may support growth. Administer 1 teaspoon mixed in warm milk every night. However, it’s wise to consult an ayurvedic practitioner for personalized dosage and suitability.
Finally, ensure she gets a minimum of 8-9 hours of restful sleep as growth hormones are active during sleep phases. Minimizing stress and maintaining a consistent daily routine align with ayurvedic practices for promoting growth.
These recommendations should be complemented by close monitoring to ensure they’re supporting her health without any adverse effects. Note that while ayurveda can aid growth during adolescence, genetics and overall health also play a significant role in determining final height.
