What are red blood cells – How does Ayurveda improve blood health? - #16812
I recently had some blood tests done, and while most of my results were normal, my doctor mentioned that my red blood cell count was slightly low. They didn’t seem too concerned, but I started wondering—what are red blood cells, and why are they so important for health? From what I’ve read, red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body, and if you don’t have enough of them, it can lead to fatigue, weakness, and even anemia. Lately, I’ve been feeling more tired than usual, and sometimes I feel lightheaded when I stand up too fast. Could this be related to my red blood cells being low? Does Ayurveda have any specific treatments or dietary recommendations to improve red blood cell production naturally? Are there Ayurvedic herbs or foods that help build blood and improve circulation? I’ve heard that Ayurveda recommends iron-rich foods like dates, pomegranates, and beets, but are there any specific herbal formulations that are more effective? Also, could low red blood cells be linked to a dosha imbalance? If so, what can I do to correct it? I’d love to know if anyone has used Ayurveda to improve their blood health naturally!
