What Causes Excess Heat in the Body, and How Can It Be Naturally Balanced? - #14436
I have been experiencing excess heat in my body, which leads to constant sweating, skin irritation, acidity, and an overall feeling of restlessness. I want to understand what causes this internal heat imbalance and how to naturally regulate it. Some of the common reasons for excess heat include high Pitta dosha (as per Ayurveda), excessive spicy food intake, dehydration, high metabolic activity, stress, and hormonal imbalances. Many people recommend cooling foods like coconut water, buttermilk, cucumber, and mint to regulate body temperature. Others suggest herbal remedies like Amalaki, Brahmi, and Shatavari to soothe heat-related symptoms. However, I want to know whether excess heat is linked to underlying medical conditions like hyperthyroidism or digestive disorders. For those who struggle with body heat, what lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, or Ayurvedic treatments helped in cooling the body and reducing discomfort? Would love insights into the best natural remedies for balancing excess body heat and whether medical conditions could be contributing to this issue.
