Skeletal Muscle: Why Am I Losing Strength and How Can Ayurveda Help? - #14820

Anonymous

Lately, I’ve been noticing that my skeletal muscle strength isn’t what it used to be. I feel weaker, and my muscles fatigue faster than before. Even carrying groceries feels harder than it should. I haven’t changed much in my routine, but I do sit a lot during the day, and my diet isn’t the best. Could poor nutrition be affecting my skeletal muscle health? I don’t go to the gym, but I do some light stretching and walking. Still, it feels like my skeletal muscle is just getting weaker. Could this be due to a deficiency in something like protein or vitamins? I’ve heard that Ayurveda has ways to naturally strengthen skeletal muscle, but I’m not sure where to start. Are there specific herbs or foods that help with skeletal muscle growth and recovery? Should I be doing specific exercises to prevent muscle loss? Also, could poor digestion be preventing my body from absorbing nutrients that support skeletal muscle health? If anyone here has used Ayurveda to strengthen skeletal muscle, what worked best for you? How long did it take to notice improvements?

Weak skeletal muscles can result from poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, or improper digestion leading to weak tissue formation (Mamsa Dhatu Kshaya). Ayurveda emphasizes nourishing and strengthening muscles through a balanced diet, digestion improvement, and regular exercise. Include protein-rich foods like moong dal, almonds, sesame seeds, milk, and ghee. Herbs like Ashwagandha, Shatavari, and Bala help enhance muscle strength and endurance. Drinking Ashwagandha milk at night supports muscle recovery. Poor digestion can reduce nutrient absorption, so taking Trikatu (ginger, black pepper, pippali) before meals improves digestion. Strength-building exercises like yoga, resistance training, or Surya Namaskar are essential. Abhyanga (oil massage) with Mahanarayan or Dhanwantharam oil helps improve muscle tone. With consistent practice, you may notice strength improvements within a few months.
