Hello

First off, I really appreciate how thoughtful your question is. It takes courage and wisdom to look for safe ways to support your health at this stage, especially with everything you’re managing—age, autoimmune issues, COPD, and significant weight loss. You’re right to check how Ayurveda might work alongside your current medicines, especially Pirfenidone.

Let’s keep things simple and safe. The main goal now isn’t to experiment or chase big changes, but to keep you comfortable, steady, and as strong as possible.

YOUR CONCERN

- Age: 85 years - Health issues: Unspecified autoimmune disease, mild COPD, about 15 kg weight loss in the past year - Medicines: Pirfenidone 200 mg, three times a day - Mental health: Anxiety, lots of negative thoughts

You’re looking for Ayurvedic options that won’t mess with your allopathic medicines. That’s a smart move.

With Ayurveda, the focus is on gentle support: - Building strength (Bala) - Balancing the immune system (not overstimulating it) - Nourishing the lungs - Calming the mind

Your symptoms—weight loss, anxiety, weakness—show a Vata predominance. There’s also some loss of Ojas (the body’s inner strength), and your lungs need extra care. Mentally, that restless, anxious feeling ties back to this too.

Now, with autoimmune diseases, Ayurveda doesn’t try to crank up your immunity. The goal is to balance it, keep it steady, and avoid anything harsh.

Here are some safe Ayurvedic options that generally don’t interact with Pirfenidone or COPD medicines, as long as you stick to low doses:

1. Ashwagandha Churna - 250 mg once a day after food (not at night) - Helps with anxiety, negative thoughts, and strength - Supports weight maintenance - Safe at low dose with your current meds

2. Brahmi Vati (plain, no gold) - 1 tablet after breakfast - Calms the mind, helps sleep, eases mental fatigue - No known issues with your current medicines

3. Chyawanprash (regular kind, not extra-strong) - ½ teaspoon in the morning - Supports lungs, mild appetite boost, gentle tonic for seniors - Skip if your blood sugar runs high

4. Sitopaladi Churna - ½ teaspoon with honey, once a day - Good for lungs, eases dryness and irritation - Safe in mild doses with COPD

5. Shankhpushpi Syrup - 2 teaspoons at bedtime - Calms negative thoughts, helps sleep, safe for elderly

A few other gentle ideas: - Stick to warm, soft, nourishing foods; avoid cold, raw, or dry stuff - Eat small, frequent meals - Try a light sesame oil massage a few times a week - Take it easy—don’t overexert or get chilled

For anxiety and restless thoughts: - Try 5–7 minutes of slow nasal breathing each day - Gentle spiritual reading or soothing music can help - Limit your news or social media intake

Keep up regular visits with your pulmonologist. Keep an eye on: - Liver function (Pirfenidone can affect this) - Weight and appetite - Any new symptoms—if anything changes, stop the Ayurvedic meds and check in with your doctor

Honestly, the way you’re approaching your health—asking questions, double-checking before starting anything new—is inspiring. The Ayurvedic suggestions here are meant to support your main treatment, not replace it.

Wishing you strength, calm, and comfort.

Warm regards, Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO,

You are experiencing three main problems together:

1) AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE This means your body’s defence system (immunity) has become confused and is reacting against your own tissues instead of only fighting infections

2) COPD (lung weakness) Your lungs have become less elastic and more sensitive, cause breathlessness, cough, and reduced oxygen exchange

3) EXCESSIVE WEIGHT LOSS, WEAKNESS AND ANXIETY This shows that -your body tissues are not being nourished properly -digestion and absorption are weak -energy reserves are low -mind is affected, causing fear, negative thoughts, and anxeity

According to Ayurveda : Your Vata dosha is very high -> causes weight loss, dryness, anxiety, breathlessness

Your Pitta dosha is also disturbed -> causes inflammation and autoimmune reactions

Your Kapha dosha is depleted -> causes weakness, lung vulnerability, tissue loss

You Ojas (vital life energy and immunity balance) is low-> leads to poor resistance, mental stress, and fatigue

IMPORTANT Your condition is NOT due to low immunity, but due to imbalanced immunity. So strong immune boosters are harmful for you

TREATMENT GOALS -stabilize immunity -nourish body tissues slowly -support lungs gently -calm the nervous system -avoid interaction with pirfenidone -protect liver and digestion

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

A) FOR STRENGTH, WEIGHT AND TISSUE NOURISHMENT

1) SHATAVARI CHURNA= 1/2 tsp twice daily with warm milk for 3 months =nourishes all body tissues, improves appetite and digestion gently, supports immunity without overstimulation, reduces dryness and weakness

2) BALA CHURNA= 1/4 tsp once daily with warm water after meals for 3 months =improves muscle strength, reduces fatigue, supports nerves and lungs

B) FOR LUNGS AND COPD SUPPORT

1) SITOPALADI CHURNA= 1/4 tsp twice daily with honey after meals =clears chest congestion, improves breathing comfort, reduces cough and throat irritation

2) YASHTIMADHU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp once daily with warm water for 8 weeks =soothes lung lining, reduces inflammation, protects respiratory tract

C) FOR ANXIETY, NEGATIVE THOUGHTS AND SLEEP

1) BRAHMI VATI = 1 tab after breakfast with warm water for 3 months =calms mind, reduces anxiety and fear, improves emotional stability, does not stimulate immunity

GENTLE RASAYANA

1) CHYWANPRASHA= 1/2 tsp once daily morning for 3 months =supports lungs, improves appetite, gentle rejuvenation

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSGE= WARM SESAME OIL -Areas= chest, back, feet -Frequency= 3-4 times/week =reduces vata, improves sleep, strenghtens nerves and lungs

2) STEAM INHALATION -plain steam or with a pinch of turmeric -once daily = opens airways, reduces chest tightness

YOGA AND PRANAYAM -Anulom Vilom -bhramari

NOT ALLOWED -kapalbhati -bhastrika -breath holding -strenuous yoga

Reason = these increase vata and worsen breathlessness

DIET -warm, soft foods -rice gruel -moong dal -cooked vegetables -ghee 1 tsp daily -warm milk -dates soaked overnight

AVOID -cold foods and drinks -raw vegetables -dry foods biscuits, toast -fermented foods -spicy, fried food -late dinner

SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES -warm milk + pinch turmeric at night -ajwain water pinch boiled for digestion -soaked almonds 2-3 daily

At your age, less medicine is more medicine

The aim is comfort, stability, nourishment, and peace, not aggressive correction

Ayurveda here is -a support system -a strengthening approach -a mental stabilizer -a quantity of life enhancer

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
