What Are the Benefits of Using Herbs Plus in My Daily Routine? - #21778

Ava

I am really curious about this whole Herbs Plus thing. So, a little backstory: I’ve been dealing with some annoying digestion issues for a while now, sometimes my stomach feels like a circus, and I'm tired of going to doctors who just wanna prescribe me somthing without really solving the problem. A friend mentioned Herbs Plus after I kept whining about my bloating and occasional gas issues (ugh... so embarrassing!). They said it's this awesome blend of herbal remedies that could really help with my gut health, but I'm kinda skeptical, y’know? Like, can a bunch of herbs really make a difference? I looked it up and saw that a lot of people rave about how Herbs Plus has helped em with everything from boosting their metabolism to reducing symptoms of IBS. I mean, I want to believe it will help me too, but how do I know which herbs to focus on or how to mix these herbal remedies right? Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with all these products that claim they work miracles. Also, I’ve read that not all herbs are created equal, so how do you pick the right blend? Are there any particular types of herbs in the herbs plus that work wonders that you guys would recommend? I guess what I'm asking is, what’s your personal experience with herbs plus? Did it actually improve your digestion, or was it just another one of those hype things that didn’t actually do much? If I start using it – how long should I wait to start feeling a difference? I really want to get my gut health on track and not feel all heavy and uncomfortable after eating! Also, just to throw it out there, if anyone has tried herbs plus with something else like a specific diet or routine, I’d love to hear about that too! I’m all about combining different methods to really kick this digestive issue in the butt. Like, is there a particular recipe or suggestion in using herbs plus for someone newbie like me? Any tips or advice would totally make my day, thanks a bunch!!!

Doctors' responses

Hey,A lot of people deal with exactly what you’re describing: bloating, gas, that heavy, circus-in-your-belly feeling—and it is frustrating when all you get from doctors are prescriptions without real solutions.

About Herbs Plus: It’s essentially a blend of digestive-supportive herbs, and while different versions exist, many include ingredients like: Triphala,Fennel,Ginger,Peppermint,Ajwain (carom seeds) These herbs can work—if they’re high-quality and used consistently. Unlike meds that might give you instant relief but no long-term fix, herbs usually work gradually, healing your gut lining, improving enzyme production, and balancing gut flora. You might feel a difference in 7–21 days, especially if your diet is proper.

Note- keep yourself well hydrated.

I didn’t tried herb plus. Is it a medicine So I can’t comment on the medicine which I don’t know. You can some classical ayurvedic medicine which is useful for digestive systems. But first of all you have to monitor your diet. What food you are taking and what you should avoid. Eat balanced diet Avoid sour spicy oily cold foods Simple triphala churna half spoon with warm water two times a day after meals will be enough

Herbs Plus, with its blend of Ayurvedic herbs, can indeed propel your digestive health journey, focusing on balancing your doshas and fueling your agni, or digestive fire. The idea isn’t that it works like magic overnight, but rather that these herbs address the root causes of your digestive discomfort over time. As you’ve hinted, not all herbs are made equally; so choosing ones aligned to your unique constitution is key.

For digestion, Triphala is one often recommended staple in Ayurveda - it consists of three fruits - Amalaki, Bibhitaki, and Haritaki, which can help regulate your digestive process, reducing bloating and gas naturally. It could be a valuabel part of your regimen. Another beneficial herb could be Ginger, known for enhancing digestive fire and speeding up metabolism. You just need a small pinch with warm water before meals it provides excellent support. And there’s Fenugreek, which may soothe your gut lining.

Start with small doses, as herbs generally take weeks, sometimes 4-6 weeks to exhibit noticeable effects, patience is part of the process. Keep an eye on how your body responds, and adjust as needed. The individual response to herbs can vary based on your current body constitution and dosha imbalance.

Adding a routine with mindful dietary practices amplifies the benefits - like eating at the same time daily, mindful chewing, avoiding cold foods. Ayurvedic diets often mes into a more sattvic balance, focusing on easy-to-digest, fresh foods that support digestive health. Avoid processed food and drinks that might deteriorate your agni.

Combining the Herbal blend like Herbs Plus with yoga techniques, like pranayama - breath control practices, can enhance digestion by relaxing the nervous system, making sure your gut is ready to digest optimally.

Better than just diving into Herbs Plus blindly, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner, as they’d provide insights into the underlying dosha imbalances causing your symptoms, tailoring a regimen to you specifically. They’d put together a more tailored herbal concoction based on thorough analysis.

Lastly, keep an open line to your healthcare provider if things persist, to ensure there’s no underlying medical condition that might be overlooked. Balancing both Ayurvedic and modern perspectives could nudge your digestive health in the right direction, helping you feel lighter and more comfortable after meals.

Dr. Gaurav Kushwaha
I am a qualified BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) graduate with a strong grounding in classical Ayurveda and how it fits into modern clinical settings. My training shaped the way I think about disease, health, and recovery, and honestly I still keep learning from every patient I see, even now. I am experienced in patient consultation, detailed case taking, and Ayurvedic diagnosis based on Prakriti, Vikriti, Agni, Dosha imbalance, and lifestyle patterns. I focus a lot on understanding the root cause rather than just symptoms, which sometimes takes time, and sometimes patients are surprised by how many questions I ask. But that part matters. A lot. My approach to treatment planning is individualized and practical, combining classical Ayurvedic principles with present-day life realities. Diet, daily routine, mental stress, sleep habits, and digestion all play a role, and I try to address them together, not in isolation. Some days this process feels complex, but I believe clarity comes from that complexity. I have hands-on experience managing a wide range of general health concerns through Ayurveda, using personalized therapies and lifestyle guidance. I pay close attention to Agni assessment because weak digestion quietly causes many problems, though this is often overlooked. I may repeat this point during consults, maybe too often. I aim to practice Ayurveda in a way that feels grounded, ethical, and realistic. I am careful not to overpromise results, and I value honest communication, even when progress feels slow. Medicine is not always linear, and healing rarely follows a straight line!! I am committed to continuing clinical learning and refining my skills, while staying rooted in authentic Ayurvedic wisdom, even when modern practice pulls in many directions.

Dr. B.Jayagowri
I am a doctor practicing Ayurveda Medicine with around 16 years of hands-on experience, mainly focused on Panchakarma therapies and long-term Ayurvedic care. Over the years I have worked with patients dealing with chronic conditions, lifestyle disorders, women’s health concerns, and general wellness issues, and honestly the learning never really stops, even after so many years. I am currently running two Ayurveda clinics in Chennai, which keeps me busy most days and sometimes a bit stretched, but it also helps me stay closely connected to real patient needs. My work is rooted in classical Ayurvedic principles, while also trying to be practical and relavent to modern life. Panchakarma therapies are a core part of my practice, and I pay close attention to how each therapy is planned, timed, and followed up, becuase small details matter a lot in outcomes. Academically, I have completed my MD in Accu, and I am presently pursuing a PhD in Gynecology. Women’s health is an area I spend a lot of time thinking about, researching, and treating, and sometimes I still question if we fully listen enough to what patients are trying to say. My approach to treatment is individualised, not rushed, and based on understanding the root cause rather than just symptoms, though this takes patience from both sides. I try to keep my consultations clear and honest, without overpromising results. Ayurveda works deeply, but it also demands consistency, and that part is not always easy. Still, I believe steady care, proper Panchakarma, and right guidance can bring meaningful change, even if progress feels slow at times!!

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Pratheeksha
I am kinda thinking back while typing this, how my journey moved from one hopital to another and shaped the way I work now. I worked as a duty doctor in NRACHARYA hospital Koteshwara and later at New Medical Hospital in Kundapura, and each shift there showed me diff things about patient care, some days smooth and some totally chaotic.. but all useful. Before that I did my internship at KVG Ayurveda Medical College and Hospital, where I learned to handle day-to-day OPD work, small procedures, reporting, all that grind which at that time felt too much but now I see how much it helped me. I also completd my PGCPK Panchakarma training at MAHE, and I still keep going back to those notes, maybe little messy notes, but they remind me how deeply Panchakarma needs to be understood rather than done like a ritual. That course pushed me to explore detox, shodhana logic, and the way dosha behave when you guide them properly. Sometimes I get unsure mid-consultation, like am I missing one more point in history taking, but that doubt kinda helps me re-check and give better clarity to the pt. I try to mix my clinical experience from these hospitals with the classical ayurved basics we studied—pratyaksha, anumana, sabda—all in a practical way, not too bookish. Working with diff teams also taught me how to speak with pts in a simple way rather than giving huge explenations. And somewhere through all this, I started trusting the slow process of learning, even when my sentence breaks off in wrong place or missing a comma… the work still moves forward. This whole path, from KVG to MAHE to the two hospitals, shaped how I see healing: steady, patient, and always personalized, even if my typing looks a little rushed here.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Janvi Dhera
I am a doctor who completed CCH and CGO from Wadia hospital, and that training gave me exposure not just in theory but also in handling patients with very diverse needs. Over time I have treated many cases of chronic skin conditions, gut related disorders and also anorectal issues like piles, fissure and similar complaints. Each case felt different, no two patients respond the same way, and I learnt how to adapt treatment according to prakriti, diet habits, stress levels. Skin problems always catch attention first — psoriasis, eczema, acne that stays for years — but I understood that they often start from inside, from digestion or blood impurities. Gut issues like acidity, constipation, IBS are also common in my practice, and here small corrections in food timing or herbs can change a lot. Anorectal cases, especially piles and fissure, are painful both physically and mentally for patients, so I try to bring a treatment plan that is safe, non-invasive when possible, and focused on long term relief not just temporary fixes. Working with such variety of disorders also taught me patience. Some patients want fast results, but Ayurveda needs time to clean the root cause. I explain them carefully, sometimes repeating many times, that slow healing is stronger healing. Building that trust is important. My approach is always to combine herbal formulations, diet advice, and lifestyle correction with procedures when required, to ensure balance is restored and maintained. For me, Ayurveda is not a set of ready remedies but a flexible science that adapts to each person. Whether it’s skin, gut or anorectal problems, my focus stays on listening, understanding and guiding patients with clarity, honesty and steady support.
