What are some effective ayurvedic herbs to increase appetite that really work? - #22238

Sophia

I am having such a hard time with my appetite lately! It feels like I haven't been able to eat well for months, and I just can't seem to find anything that helps. I've heard about ayurvedic herbs to increase appetite, and I really wanna know if they actually work or if it's all just hype? Like, I've tried a few things but just no luck, honestly. I sometimes feel nauseous, and it's like the thought of food just makes it worse! I've heard ginger might help – is that one of the ayurvedic herbs to increase appetite too? What else should I consider? I even read something about ashwagandha but I'm not sure. Sometimes I'll have a meal, but then I'm just not interested in whatsoever. I've been really stressed with work, and I'm not sure if that plays a part. They say things like too much stress can lower your appetite, right? So can these ayurvedic herbs to increase appetite really make a difference for someone like me? Would love to hear what you all think! I've got a list of a few herbs, but opinions always help. Thanks in advance!!

In ayurveda these are many medicine which act on appetite like Ginger, pepper,hing, jeeraka, but action of it depends on the actual cause of appetite.... To improve your appetite you can have ginger boiled with water and take it will help to proper digestion of food or you can have hingvashtaka choorna mixed with 1 at bolus of food As you mention stress, so first treat the stress because it's also one of the cause of loss of appetite so to relieve stress you can do yoga , pranayama,trataka atleast 15 mins daily Do head massage with himasagara tail and do foot massage with same oil it's also help to reduce stress

Dr. Harshita Hyati
I have gained comprehensive clinical experience through my internship and professional duties, which has laid a strong foundation for my medical practice. During my internship, I worked extensively across multiple departments, including casualty, general medicine, general surgery, and obstetrics & gynecology at the Government District Hospital, Gadag. This exposure allowed me to handle a variety of acute and chronic cases, sharpen my clinical assessment skills, and actively participate in patient management under the guidance of senior medical professionals. Following this, I served as a duty doctor at AYUSH Hospital, Gadag Betgeri, where I applied my Ayurvedic knowledge in a clinical setting and contributed to patient care in both outpatient and inpatient departments. I successfully completed 366 days of rigorous internship training at DGM Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital, Gadag, where I was involved in patient evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment planning under supervision. My time there allowed me to integrate classical Ayurvedic principles with practical patient care while developing a keen understanding of hospital operations and multidisciplinary collaboration. These experiences have enhanced my ability to handle diverse medical conditions confidently while maintaining a patient-centered approach. I am dedicated to continuing my journey as an Ayurvedic practitioner with the same passion and commitment, focusing on delivering quality, evidence-based, and holistic healthcare.
