What Causes Excessive Heat in the Body, and How Can It Be Reduced Naturally? - #14428
I often feel excessive heat in my body, which leads to sweating, restlessness, skin breakouts, and even acid reflux. I want to understand what causes excessive heat and what natural remedies can help cool the body down and restore balance. Some of the common reasons for excess heat include high Pitta dosha (as per Ayurveda), excessive spicy food intake, dehydration, overexposure to the sun, and stress. Many people recommend cooling foods like coconut water, cucumber, mint, and buttermilk to regulate body temperature. Others suggest Ayurvedic herbs like Shatavari, Amalaki, and Brahmi to calm internal heat. However, I want to know whether excess heat is linked to a specific health issue, like hormonal imbalances or digestive problems. For those who experience high body heat, what remedies worked best for you? Did diet changes, lifestyle adjustments, or herbal treatments help in cooling down the body and reducing discomfort? Would love insights into the best natural ways to reduce excessive body heat and whether medical conditions could be contributing to this issue.
