Erythropoiesis: How Can Ayurveda Naturally Boost My Red Blood Cell Production? - #14812
For the past few months, I’ve been feeling super low on energy, like even after a full night’s sleep, I wake up tired. My legs feel weak, I get dizzy randomly, and even walking up a flight of stairs makes my heart race. I thought maybe it was just stress, but I got some blood tests done, and my doctor said my hemoglobin is low. They mentioned something about erythropoiesis and how my body isn’t producing enough red blood cells properly. I was told to take iron supplements, but they make my stomach hurt, and I’m not seeing much improvement. I eat a pretty normal diet, but I don’t eat a lot of red meat. My diet is mostly vegetarian, so maybe I’m not getting enough nutrients to support erythropoiesis? My doctor also mentioned that B12 and folic acid play a role in erythropoiesis, but I have no idea how to naturally boost these. Since I don’t want to rely on supplements forever, I started looking into Ayurveda. Are there Ayurvedic herbs that help with erythropoiesis? I’ve heard of Ashwagandha and Triphala, but do they actually help the body make more red blood cells? Also, are there specific foods or lifestyle changes that can naturally improve erythropoiesis? If anyone has experience with boosting erythropoiesis naturally through Ayurveda, how long did it take to see results? Also, is there anything that could be blocking my body from making enough red blood cells? I want to fix this issue at the root instead of just taking pills forever.
