Doctors’ responses
breathing problems and low oxygen levels are often linked to imbalances in Vata and Kapha doshas, which can affect the respiratory system and lung function. To support lung health and improve oxygen levels, I recommend incorporating herbs like Vasaka (Malabar nut), Pippali (long pepper), Tulsi (holy basil), and Brahmi, which help improve respiratory function, clear mucus from the lungs, and promote healthy breathing. Triphala and Haritaki can aid in detoxifying the lungs and enhancing circulation. Regular practice of Pranayama (breathing exercises), particularly Anulom Vilom and Bhastrika, can strengthen the lungs, improve oxygen uptake, and reduce breathlessness. Additionally, a warm, nourishing diet with herbal teas made from Ginger and Cardamom can improve digestion and respiratory function. Avoid cold, damp environments, and reduce exposure to pollutants.

Dealing with breathing problems and the complexities of interstitial lung disease (ILD) needs a nuanced approach, especially when it hits so early at 45. Ayurveda, as you know, is about balance—and here, supporting your vata dosha to reduce dryness in the lungs could offer some relief. But, let’s make sure we’re channeling this safely since lung health is critical!
First, your diet. Think moist, nourishing, grounding foods. You'd wanna reach for things that can boost kapha's moist nature like warm milk with a pinch of turmeric and ginger. This can help reduce inflammation and improve lung function. Including ghee in moderate amounts, a soothing agent for the lungs, might also be calming. Don’t shy away from cooked vegetables and warm soups.
Breathing exercises are, I can't stress enough, vital. Try Pranayama. A gentle practice like Nadi Shodhana—alternate nostril breathing—may balance energy flow in your body. Start with just a couple of minutes daily and gradually increase as you feel comfortable. However be cautious, and listen to your body.
Herbal support could be a friend here, too. Pippali (long pepper) is often used to strengthen respiratory functions. A traditional recommendation is a mixture of pippali and honey, taken with warm water, in small doses. Also, consider Tulsi (holy basil); it’s known for strengthening immunity and enhancing lung health.
But, let’s not forget— always talk to your doctor about these, especially with ILD, because of its complications. Don’t drop any prescribed medication. And if symptoms get severe, don’t wait for Ayurveda’s gentle nature to play catch up, seek medical advice immediately.
Create space for rest as well, as stress can exacerbate symptoms. So, balancing activities with mindful relaxation techniques could benefit you greatly. It's all about integration with Ayurveda, not replacement in critical conditions. Stay careful, yeah?
