What is the disease caused by hurry, worry, and curry? - #10837
I’ve often heard that excessive stress and poor diet can lead to serious health conditions, especially in Ayurveda. What is the disease caused by hurry, worry, and curry, and how can it be managed naturally? From what I understand, this phrase refers to acid reflux, indigestion, or peptic ulcers, which are aggravated by stress (“hurry”), anxiety or mental strain (“worry”), and a spicy, unhealthy diet (“curry”). How does Ayurveda explain the link between lifestyle factors and these digestive issues, and what remedies are recommended for balancing the doshas? One remedy I’ve come across is Avipattikar Churna, which is said to neutralize excess stomach acid and soothe the digestive system. How effective is it for long-term relief, and are there any precautions to consider? Another suggestion is consuming cooling herbs like amla, licorice root (Yashtimadhu), and coriander seeds. Should these be taken as teas, powders, or part of meals for better results? Ayurveda also emphasizes the importance of stress management through meditation and pranayama. Are techniques like Anulom Vilom or yoga poses specifically helpful for reducing stress-induced digestive issues? If anyone has dealt with this condition, I’d love to hear your tips. What lifestyle changes and Ayurvedic remedies worked best for you?
