Which Ayurvedic Treatment of Constipation Works Best for Long-Term Digestive Health? - #14156

Charlotte

I have been struggling with chronic constipation, bloating, and irregular bowel movements, and while fiber supplements help, I want to try Ayurvedic treatment of constipation that focuses on long-term digestive healing rather than just temporary relief. Some of the most commonly recommended Ayurvedic remedies for constipation include Triphala (for natural colon cleansing and digestion), Isabgol (Psyllium husk for stool softening), Castor Oil (for lubrication and bowel movement stimulation), and Abhyanga (stomach massage therapy for better digestion). But how effective are these in treating chronic constipation and digestive sluggishness? For those who have tried Ayurvedic treatment of constipation, what worked best for regulating digestion and improving gut health? Would love to hear from people who have successfully treated constipation with Ayurveda and whether it provided lasting relief.

Ayurvedic treatment for chronic constipation focuses on balancing the digestive fire (Agni) and improving gut health over the long term. Here’s how some remedies work:

Popular Ayurvedic Remedies
Triphala: A powerful colon cleanser and digestive aid that helps regulate bowel movements and improve gut flora.
Isabgol (Psyllium Husk): Adds bulk and softens stools, promoting easier bowel movements.
Castor Oil: Acts as a natural laxative, stimulating bowel movements and lubricating the intestines.
Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Regular abdominal massages help stimulate digestion and relieve bloating.
Effectiveness
Triphala: Many users report sustained relief and improved digestion with regular use.
Isabgol: Works best for mild constipation and bloating but may need to be taken consistently.
Castor Oil: Provides immediate relief but is more suitable for occasional use.
Abhyanga: Helps reduce digestive sluggishness and promotes relaxation.
