anaemia - #18737
Lately, I’ve been feeling constantly tired, even after getting enough sleep. At first, I thought it was just stress, but then I started noticing other symptoms—dizziness when I stand up, frequent headaches, and my skin looking paler than usual. I also feel out of breath after doing simple activities like climbing stairs. I went to the doctor, and after a blood test, he told me I have anaemia. My haemoglobin levels are low, and the doctor said I need to increase my iron intake. He prescribed iron supplements, but I’ve heard they can cause side effects like constipation and stomach pain. I really don’t want to take them if there’s a natural way to improve anaemia. Does Ayurveda have treatments that can help raise haemoglobin naturally? Are there specific herbs or foods that work better than supplements? I also want to understand why this is happening. I eat a normal diet, but maybe I’m not absorbing enough nutrients? Can poor digestion cause anaemia? I’ve read that Ayurveda sees nutrient absorption as an important part of overall health. If my body isn’t absorbing iron properly, how do I fix that? Are there Ayurvedic herbs or remedies that help improve digestion and absorption of iron-rich foods? Another thing that worries me is that I’ve been losing more hair than usual. Could anaemia be the reason for my hair thinning? If so, does Ayurveda offer any treatments to stop hair loss while improving iron levels? I also noticed that my hands and feet feel colder than before, even when the weather isn’t that cold. Could this be related to anaemia, and if so, is there an Ayurvedic way to improve circulation? I read that Ayurveda focuses on balancing the doshas for overall health. Does anaemia mean I have an imbalance in my doshas? If so, which dosha is affected, and how can I restore balance naturally? Should I be avoiding certain foods or adding specific ones to my diet? I really want to treat this issue naturally instead of relying on supplements forever. What is the best Ayurvedic approach for curing anaemia naturally? Are there daily habits, herbs, or lifestyle changes that can help increase haemoglobin and improve my energy levels? Would love some guidance because I don’t want to keep feeling exhausted and weak all the time. If Ayurveda has a long-term solution for anaemia, I’d like to try it.
