What Is RDW CV and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing Abnormal Levels? - #15030
I recently had a blood test, and my doctor mentioned that my RDW CV (Red Cell Distribution Width Coefficient of Variation) was higher than normal. At first, I wasn’t sure what this meant, but the doctor explained that it could be related to conditions like anemia or nutritional deficiencies. I’m curious to know what RDW CV levels mean and whether there are any natural ways to support healthy red blood cell production and improve this value using Ayurveda. From what I understand, RDW CV is a measure of the variation in the size of red blood cells. A higher level could indicate an underlying issue, such as iron deficiency or vitamin B12 deficiency. I’ve read that Ayurveda can support blood health and overall vitality through herbs and dietary adjustments. Are there any Ayurvedic herbs or remedies that can help normalize RDW CV levels and improve red blood cell production? I’ve heard that herbs like Ashwagandha, Amla, and Triphala are good for overall vitality—could these herbs help in my case? I’m also wondering if there are specific foods or changes I should make to my diet to support my blood health. Should I focus on foods that are rich in iron and B vitamins, and are there any specific Ayurvedic foods that support blood formation and circulation? Has anyone here had abnormal RDW CV levels and found relief or improvement through Ayurvedic treatments or lifestyle changes? What herbs, dietary practices, or lifestyle habits worked for you in supporting healthy blood cell production and improving your test results?
