Liver n kidney - #1816

Zandu Livital, huh? It's mainly marketed as a liver tonic, so its primary focus is supporting liver health. If you're taking it after your breakfast and night meals, especially when alcohol is involved, it can help support liver function. But don’t expect miracles just by taking it twice a day, especially considering the alcohol angle. The liver works overtime when alcohol's involved, and while supplements like Livital can be helpful, they’re part of a bigger lifestyle picture. If you’re looking at alcohol consumption, even moderate, it's crucial to think about the overall impact. Alcohol, even in moderate amounts, creates vitiation in Pitta dosha, often impacting the liver and digestion. Over time, this can affect the balance of Agni, or digestive fire. Too much reliance on a supplement can be misleading. It's better to use them as an adjunct to a more balanced lifestyle. Now, about its effect on kidneys... Zandu Livital isn't specifically targeted for kidney health. You might want to look at herbs or dietary adjustments specifically for renal function. Things like including coriander in your diet could be nicer options – they soothe excess Pitta and have mild diuretic properties which can be helpful for the kidneys. But remember to ensure it's balanced with your dosha! Sticking to a light meal at night is a good move. It's more aligned with Ayurveda principles of eating light in the evening. But, watch those alcohol habits. They're not the best companions to any kind of health strategy. If you're dealing with or suspect liver or kidney issues, especially concerning symptoms, it’s wise to discuss it with a doc or an Ayurvedic practitioner. They'd provide more personalized advice after considering your unique constitution and any imbalances. Take care, moderation's key!
