For anemia, along with an enlarged spleen, it’s essential to adress both immediate symptoms and underlying causes. Your spouse’s hemoglobin level of 5.9 is quite low and should be carefully monitored, possibly requiring medical intervention such as blood transfusions under close supervision, to quickly stabilize her condition.
From an ayurvedic perspective, anemia, known as Pandu Roga, often relates to imbalances in the Pitta and Kapha doshas, affecting the Rasa and Rakta dhatus—the primary tissues involved in blood.
First, focus on diet. Emphasize iron-rich foods like leafy greens, beetroot, dates, and pomegranate juice. Cooking with iron utensils is an often overlooked but beneficial practice that can help in increasing iron content in food, though this alone might not be sufficient. Avoid tea and coffee after meals as they can inhibit iron absorption.
Alongside, include Trikatu churna (a blend of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) before meals to enhance digestion and increase bioavailability of nutrients. You can take approx 1/2 teaspoon mixed with a teaspoon of honey, but ensure her Pitta is not aggravated as Trikatu is quite heating in nature.
Herbs such as Ashwagandha and Shatavari can support overall strength and immunity, while Guduchi helps with spleen and blood health. These should be customized based on her specific dosha balance and constitution, so ideally consult with a skilled Ayurvedic practitioner for dosage.
It’s also vital to ensure there’s a balance between rest and gentle activity. Over-exertion must be avoided. Simple breathing exercises - Pranayama like Nadi Shodhana can help improve oxygenation.
Monitor her condition regularily and maintain ongoing communication with her healthcare provider. Addressing anemia effectively will likely require an integrative approach, utilizing both Ayurvedic and allopathic treatments.
