What Are the Treatment Options for Jaundice and How Can Ayurveda Help in Its Management? - #14972

Anonymously

A few days ago, I went to the doctor after noticing that my skin and eyes were turning yellow. My doctor diagnosed me with jaundice and explained that it occurs due to a buildup of bilirubin in the blood, often due to liver issues. They prescribed some medications and told me to take it easy, but I’m looking for more natural ways to support my recovery. I want to know if Ayurveda has any treatments or herbs that can help detoxify my liver, reduce the bilirubin levels, and speed up the recovery process. I’ve read that the liver plays a crucial role in detoxifying the body, and I’m wondering what Ayurvedic remedies can support liver health in cases of jaundice. Are there herbs like Turmeric, Guduchi, or Bhringraj that are known for their liver-healing properties—could they help me recover from jaundice? Additionally, I’m concerned about maintaining a healthy diet during my recovery. Are there specific foods or drinks in Ayurveda that can help cleanse the liver and promote healing while managing jaundice? Has anyone here experienced jaundice and found relief through Ayurvedic treatments? What herbs, practices, or lifestyle changes worked best for you in managing jaundice and promoting liver health?

In Ayurveda, jaundice (Kamala) is linked to aggravated Pitta affecting liver function, requiring detoxification and cooling therapies. Herbs like Guduchi, Bhringraj, and Kutki are excellent for liver regeneration and bile regulation, while Turmeric and Amla help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. Fresh sugarcane juice, pomegranate juice, and buttermilk with cumin are highly recommended to cleanse the liver and improve digestion. Avoid spicy, oily, and heavy foods that burden the liver—stick to a light, Pitta-pacifying diet with warm moong dal, rice, steamed vegetables, and bitter greens (like karela and neem). Drinking warm water with lemon in the morning supports liver detoxification. Ayurvedic formulations like Arogyavardhini Vati and Liver tonics (like Bhumi Amalaki Churna) can be beneficial but should be taken under supervision. Resting, avoiding stress, and practicing deep breathing (Anulom Vilom) can further support recovery.
