What Is Amylase and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing Its Levels? - #14926
I recently had some routine blood tests done, and my doctor informed me that my amylase levels were slightly elevated. I wasn’t entirely sure what that meant, so I did some research and learned that amylase is an enzyme that helps break down carbohydrates. My doctor explained that elevated amylase could indicate problems with the pancreas or digestion, but I didn’t experience any pain or obvious symptoms, except for occasional bloating after meals. I’m worried that this could be a sign of an underlying condition, like pancreatitis, even though my doctor didn’t seem overly concerned. I’m also looking for natural ways to support my digestive health and balance amylase levels without relying on strong medications. I’ve read that Ayurveda offers holistic approaches to improving digestion and managing enzyme levels. Are there specific herbs or foods that can help balance amylase and support healthy digestion? I’ve heard that turmeric, ginger, and triphala are good for digestive health—could these be helpful in regulating amylase levels? Has anyone here dealt with elevated amylase levels and found success with Ayurvedic treatments? What herbs, lifestyle changes, or dietary modifications helped you improve your digestive health and manage enzyme levels?
