Namaste AVS IS A CONDITION WHERE THE VALVE that controls blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body becomes narrowed. This makes it harder for the heart to pump blood efficiently, leading to symptoms, like shortness of breath, pain, weakness, and sometimes dizziness as you mentioned that our LVEF is 50% which indicates that her heart pumping capacity is mainly reduced while her condition is moderate and not at critical. It is progressing and the suggestion of surgery is likely made to prevent further deterioration in Ayurveda, we always believe that where there is probation. There is also reversal to a certain extent, especially when the condition is caught in the modern stage as in your mother case. According to Ayurveda point of view, the pumping function is impaired due to VATA and KPHA DUSHTI along with obstruction in blood carrying channels In Ayurveda, there is no chance of replacing a valve or perform a surgical correction, but be able to reduce the progression of the disease, improve the circulatory strength, clear the obstruction nourish cardiac tissues and support, better oxygenation and overall heart function So in Ayurveda, there is no cure as through modern science. It’s possible through surgery, but we can certainly help improve quality of life. Reduce symptoms, slow the progression and in some cases delay the need for surgery. Some of my patients under my guidance have showed improvement like reduced breathlessness. And and better life functioning. So you need to concentrate on main three foundation that is internal medicine along with the changes and lifestyle modification That our food should be light, but nourishing Avoid every oily, spicy and very salty food Give warm cook foods vegetable soups, moong dal rice, Kanji steamed vegetables, and seasonal fruits like pomegranate or apple can be given include garlic in that Avoid overheating letter, finish her dinner before 8 PM Avoid lying on bed immediately after taking meals Meal should be taken without any stress Arjuna kwath-1 teaspoon in 300 ML water with hundred ML of milk, boil together, filter and drink twice daily on empty stomach Triphala churna-1 teaspoon with warm water at night Ashwagandha capsule once daily Do pranayama Yoga Sanana Yoga should be gently with caution over exertion is in cardiac conditions, but specific breathing practices can work like natural tonic, begin with slow breathing exercise exercises which regulate the nervous system, reduce blood pressure, calm, the heart, and improve oxygen delivery Surgery may still be required, eventually, if the condition progresses, but Ayurveda and Yoga can do something that cannot they can nourish the heart from within, reduce the speed of progression, is symptoms naturally and bring her more strength, energy, and peace Even if he eventually needs medical intervention, this natural support will help her recover faster and do better It’s very important that she remains under regular cardiac observation to monitor her LVEF and valve function Meanwhile, you can definitely start the ayurvedic protocol slowly and build upon it with guidance Your care, love and intention to help your mother or the most powerful medicine combine that with consistent Ayurvedic practice and definitely will see positive changes Healing is always possible

HELLO, AORTIC VALVA CONTTROLS BLOOD FLOW FROM HEARTS LEFT VENTRICLE TO AORTA IN AORTIC STENOSIS THIS VALVE BECOMES NARROWED MAKING IT HARDER FOR THE HEART TO PUMP BLOOOD TO THE REST OF THE BODY CAUSING- INCREASED PRESSURE INSIDE THE HEAR LESS OXYGEN TO BODY AND STRAIN ON HEART MUSCLES

YOUR MOTHERS CONDITION IS MODERATE. THIS MEANS- VALVE IS NARROWED BUT NOT YET CRITICAL, LVEF- 50%. THE HEART IS STILL PUMPING RESONABLY(NORMAL SHOULD BE 55-70-%) SURGERY IS RECOMMENDED ONLY IF IT BECOMES SEVERE OR SYMPTOMS WORSEN

WHEN THE HEART STRUGGLES TO PUMP THROUGH A NARROWED VALVE- LUNGS CAN FILL WITH FLUID CAUSING BREATHLESSNESS FATIGUE INCREASES AS OXYGEN SUPPLY TO MUSCLES REDUCES

AYURVEDA CANNOT OPEN THE NARROWED VALVE BUT IT CAN-SUPPORT HEART STRENGTH IMPROVE OXYGENATION REDUCE FLUID BUILDUP AND INFLAMMATION DEALY DISEASE PPROGRESSION

AYURVEDIC MEDICATIONS TO START 1)ARJUNARISTA- 15 ML WITH LUKEWARM WATER TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD- TONES HEART, IMPROVES EJECTION FRACTION, REDUCES BREATHLESSNSS

2)PRABHAKAR VATI- 1 TAB TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD - STRENGTHEN HERAT, IMPROVES ENERGY

3)SARPAGANDHA VATI-(ONLY IF BP IS MORE THAN 140/90)- 1 TAB BEFORE BED TIME

4)PUSHKARMOOLA CHURNA- 1/2 TSP WITH WATER TWICE DAILY

DIET TO BE MAITAINED STRICTLY- AVOID- HEAVY, FRIED, OILY FOOD INCLUDE- GARLIC, ONION, DRUMSTICK, TURMERIC, BEETROOT, AMLA, PREFER LIGHT KHICHDI,GANJI, GREEN VEGETABLES AND ARJUNA HERBAL TEA SALT SHOULD BE LIMITED AVOID FERMENTED FOOD AND PICKELS

PRACTICE PRANAYAM- ANULOM VILOM AND BHRAMARI- CALMS MINDS AND REDUCES BREATHLESSNESS AVOID STRENOUS EXERCISE MILD WALK IF BREATHLESSNESS PERMITS

SIT ON VAJRASANA AFTER MEALS FOR 5MIN AVOID NONVEG , CHEESE, BUTTER

CONSIDER FOR SURGERY IF EF DROPS BELOW 50% IF SEVERE BREATHLESSNESS, FAINTING OR CHEST PAIN INCREASES

THIS MEDICATIONS ARE FOR IMPROVING LIFE, SUPPORTICE LINE OF TREAMENT NOT THE FIRST LINE

SO GO WHATS GOOD CARDIOLOGIST SUGGEST THANK YOU

Dealing with aortic valve stenosis, particularly when paired with high blood pressure and thyroid issues, calls for serious and immediate attention. While Ayurveda offers supportive therapies aimed at improving overall heart wellness and supporting her body’s vitality, it’s essential to prioritize the recommendations of her medical doctor, especially concerning surgery for moderate valve stenosis. Ayurvedic practices could certainly be complementary, but not a replacement for critical surgical interventions.

Ayurveda can be helpful in managing symptoms and supporting heart health. Here are some steps we may consider:

1. Diet: A diet rich in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables can be beneficial. Minimize intake of oily, heavy, or processed foods. Trikatu powder (a blend of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper) can be added if she can tolerate, to boost metabolism and alleviate excess Kaphadosha which might be complicating heart function.

2. Yoga: Gentle yoga and pranayama (breathing exercises) can help improve breathing and reduce stress. Yoga practices like Anulom-Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) and Bhramari (humming bee breath) must be practiced under the guidance of a qualified instructor if possible.

3. Herbs: Arjuna bark is traditionaly noted for its heart-tonifying qualities. It can be used as a powder or decoction to support the heart, but please consult a qualified Ayurveda practitioner before starting any herbal treatment.

4. Routine: Regular monitoring of blood pressure and thyroid levels is crucial. Ensure she takes her prescribed medication on time, and encourage moderate physical activity tailored to her abilities.

Ultimately, the planned surgery may well be the best course of action to prevent further complications given the lvef of 50%. Delaying necessary surgical interventions in the hope of curing the problem through alternative means could heighten risks. Always keep her cardiologist informed about any complementary therapies she is considering. Collaboration between modern medicine and Ayurveda can be harmoniously achieved when professionals from both fields work together with the patient’s best interest at heart.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

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. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

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. 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. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

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. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

Thanks for the super helpful answer! Didn't realize there were so many options to take Shankhapushpi for migraines. Your breakdown of benefits was clear and practical, really cleared up my doubts. Definitely gonna try the capsules or syrup now to save time! Cheers!
