Please do an USG abdomen & Liver function tests to understand the current status of your liver. Your symptoms—bloating, gastritis, and digestive issues—may indicate lingering effects of heavy alcohol use on your liver health and digestive system. In Ayurveda, these issues are often linked to Pitta imbalance and reduced Agni (digestive fire). Here are some Ayurvedic suggestions to help improve liver function and digestion:
Ayurvedic Remedies:
Triphala: A blend of three fruits (Amla, Haritaki, Bibhitaki) that supports digestion and acts as a gentle detoxifier.
Amla (Indian Gooseberry): Rich in Vitamin C, it helps rejuvenate the liver and improve digestion.
Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia): Known as a liver tonic, it helps detoxify and boost liver function.
Punarnava: Helps reduce bloating and improves liver efficiency.
Kutki (Picrorhiza kurroa): Known for its hepatoprotective properties, it aids in liver detoxification and supports bile production.
Diet and Lifestyle Tips:
Avoid spicy, oily, and processed foods that can aggravate Pitta.
Include bitter greens (like dandelion greens) and turmeric to support liver health.
Drink warm water with a teaspoon of lemon juice in the morning to aid liver detoxification.
Avoid alcohol and caffeine as they can strain the liver further.
Consultation Recommended:
Consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized treatment plan, as liver health can be complex and may require specific herbs or therapies like Panchakarma for deep detoxification.

So you’ve had a history with heavy drinking and now there's digestion and liver concerns popping up... Not uncommon! First, kudos to squeezing down on alcohol intake. As you guessed, your liver might be calling for a little love n' care.
Alright, diving into Ayurveda, liver issues often link back to an imbalance in Pitta dosha, which affects Agni, your digestive fire. A balanced Pitta could help in enhancing liver's efficiency, and strengthening digestive processes. Since I'm all about practical solutions, let’s unpack some steps you can start!
First off, avoid spicy, fermented, or heavily fried foods – these could aggravate Pitta. Embrace foods that are cooling and soothing like cucumber, melon, and leafy greens. These could chill your Pitta. Turmeric, the super spice, might become your new best friend. You can add a pinch to your daily diet - it's great for liver health. Just a quick note, turmeric is best absorbed with a bit of pepper in foods.
Triphala choorna, a classic Ayurvedic remedy, is something to consider. It's known for its digestive benefits and might also aid in keeping your liver happy. You can mix about 1/2 tsp in warm water before bedtime and see how it goes. And then, dandelion root tea, yes, right, can act as a gentle detox for the liver – sipping it a couple of times a week might ease out issues.
If you can fit it into your routine, practicing pranayama, especially Nadi shodhana, or alternate nostril breathing, can enhance your digestion and settle down stress. Spend about 10 mins each morning - could work wonders!
Remember, these are general suggestions, so checking with an Ayurvedic doc would ensure they fit your individual prakriti. Regular physical activity helps too - it gets the agni going. Keep tracking any changes and stick to gradual, sustainable steps. Safety first!
