Rumalaya Forte is generally not known to cause weight gain. It’s primarily used for managing joint and musculoskeletal discomfort, being rich in herbs like Boswellia and Shilajit which support anti-inflammatory effects. However, if you feel you’ve put on weight, it could be due to several factors like changes in diet, lifestyle, or even other medications you’re taking.
In Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, weight gain can stem from an imbalance in the kapha dosha, which governs structure and stability in the body. An imbalance might also affect agni, your digestive fire, slowing metabolism and causing accumulation of medas dhatu (fat tissue). If your prakriti tends to have a dominant kapha, you might be more prone to gain weight easily.
To address this naturally, you could consider incorporating more vata and pitta pacifying activities to balance kapha. For instance, regular exercise like brisk walking or yoga can help energize your agni and mobilize kapha. Additionally, consuming warm, light, and spicy foods can bolster your metabolic fire. Herbs like ginger and pepper can be included in your meals to enhance digestion.
Remember to maintain good hydration and avoid heavy or oily foods particularly late in the day. Monitor portion sizes and include more fibrous vegetables in your diet. If the weight gain persists or is accompanied by other symptoms, it might just be best to consult a healthcare provider to examine potential underlying causes. While Ayurveda offers practical insights, it’s crucial to align such guidance with current health contexts and check in with your doctor for personalized advice.
