Encephalopathy: Can Ayurveda Help with Cognitive Decline and Brain Health? - #14834
My uncle was recently diagnosed with encephalopathy, and his condition has been worsening. He forgets things easily, struggles to stay focused, and sometimes even slurs his speech. His doctor mentioned that encephalopathy can be caused by liver issues, reduced oxygen to the brain, or even toxicity buildup in the body. While they have prescribed medications, I’m wondering if Ayurveda has a more holistic approach to improving brain function. Are there Ayurvedic treatments that help detox the body and improve cognitive function in people with encephalopathy? Can herbal formulations help with memory retention and brain cell protection? I’ve read about Brahmi and Ashwagandha for brain health—do these work for conditions like encephalopathy? If anyone has used Ayurveda to manage encephalopathy, what treatment plan was the most effective? Are there specific dietary changes or therapies that can slow down cognitive decline?
