IBS with Predominant Diarrhea with Bloating and sleep also less - #22906

Asif Md

I am experiencing IBS with symptoms including diarrhea, bloating, and abdominal pain. My stomach feels very sensitive and weak. I’m looking for help to stop the IBS-related diarrhea and strengthen my gut. Additionally, I’m struggling with poor sleep and insomnia. Just to inform you, I had anxiety issues a few years ago, which have significantly lessened now, but my IBS symptoms have flared up recently. I would greatly appreciate any natural remedies or advice to help me manage these symptoms and improve my overall digestive health.

Dear Asif Ji Thank you for reaching out and trusting this platform with your health journey, i understand that living with IBS, especially with symptoms like diarrhoea, bloating, abdominal pain, and gut sensitivity can deeply impact your daily comfort energy levels, and peace of mind. Sleep disturbances like insomnia can aggravate this issues and create a cycle of stress and tiredness along with digestive discomfort. It is hardening to hear that your anxiety has significantly reduced and that itself is a positive step forward. Now let’s focus down your digestive balance and strengthening your gut health naturally through the lens of Ayurveda. Understanding your condition, according to ayurvedic point of view — In Ayurveda, your current symptoms resemble a condition known as GRAHAANI, which is primarily a dysfunction of the small intestine and is GOVERNED by balancing Agni when Agni becomes irregular or weak often due to past stress, improper eating habits or lingering Doshi imbalances It leads to improper digestion, absorption, and elimination. This gives rise to symptoms like ATISARA.(diarrhoea.) UDARASHOOLA.(abdominal pain.) ADHMANA(bloating) and a feeling of weakness in the gut In your case, based on the symptom picture and age, the dominant involvement appears to be of vata and PITTA Dosa with VATA PRAKOPA causing irregularity, dryness, and hyper motility, and PITTA VRIDDHI contributing to inflammation and sensitivity Further more, your mind and VATA Dosha are deeply interconnected. The past anxiety may have triggered VATA imbalance in the MANO vagabond srotas (channels of Mind) which is now manifesting more dominantly in the Anna vaha srotas (digestive channels) so both mind and gut needs dental healing Ayurvedic management plan Letter us focus on the three approach Correcting ani that is digestive fire Balancing Dosa Improving NIDRA and mental calmness Dietary guidance (AHARA)— Avoid cold gas producing or overly spicy food. This include salad, cold milk, uncooked sprouts, Maida, fried snacks, and exc tea or coffee Eat freshly cooked, warm, easy to digest foods, soft rice with moong dal steamed vegetables like pumpkin carrots, Teen buttermilk with cumin and Khichdi are ideal. Use digestive spices Add a small amount of HING SAUNF JEERA ginger and AJWAIN in your cooking to reduce gas and promote digestion Avoid eating when stressed, distracted or late at night, eat your main mail. Allu between 12:48 PM. When Agni is strongest. Don’t combine incompatible food, such as milk with salty or sore items or fruits with diary Herbal support— A combination of classical Ayurvedic medicines and herbs will help stabilise your gut and gradually reverse the IBS Kurajafhan vati- Very effective in controlling diarrhoea and inflammation of the intestinal mucosa You can take one tablet twice daily after food with warm water Bilwadi churna — it helps reduce diarrhoea, supports mucosal, healing, and improves appetite. You can take half teaspoon with buttermilk after meals twice daily. Avipattikara churna- If there is acidity or burning, then you can take half teaspoon before meals with water Panchamrit parpati- Supports intestinal healing and acts as observant, it can be added under supervision, if symptoms persist Shank vati - For bloating and gas, you can take one tablet twice daily with warm water after food Gut, strengthening and rejuvenating herbs— Once diarrhoea is stabilised, we shift focused to deep gut, repair and building Shatavari churna+ Yasthimadhu churna- Half teaspoon with warm milk, cut, bedtime can be taken for lining repair and mild nervous system support Ashwagandha churna-half teaspoon at night with warm milk or water for rebuilding strength, improving sleep and calming beats Triphala churna— A mild daily detox and bottle regulator take 1 teaspoon with warm water at bedtime Take only if you have constipation otherwise avoid during diarrhoea episodes. Lifestyle and daily routine— Basha fixed daily routine, vacant sleep at consistent times, the body heels, when in rhythm Whole body massage, regular massage with warm BALA Ashwagandha oil can pacify vata and strengthen your nervous and digestive system Avoid excessive travel, skipping meals, or late night screen exposure, which aggravate VATA Improving sleep naturally Poor sleep is often both a cause and consequence of VATA imbalance Nighttime ritual Drink a cup of warm milk infused with NUTMEG, poppy seeds, or a pinch of Ashwagandha Shiroda or Head oil massage with BRAHMI oil before bedtime can calm the mind Brahmi vati can be used if insomnia is severe, Avoid stimulant like caffeine, electronic devices or late meals in the evening, sleep before 10 PM Long-term focus, rebuilding os and gut resilience Your gut is your second brain and true healing lies gradually stashing harmony between the digestive nervous system and immune strength practice regular Pranayam for about 10 to 15 minutes, both morning and evening to balance the nervous system, meditation or Yoga Nidra once a day will help regulate the gut brain axis and reduce some conscious stress patterns As your diet improves, Raina harps like chyvanprash or drakshadi legs can be considered to Nourish rejuvenate tissues Ayurveda views the body as an interconnected hole. What affects your direction touches your mind and body disturbs the mind disturbs your gut healing. IBS is not just about surprising symptoms, but gently restoring violence at all levels, physical, mental, and energetic. You have already made progress by addressing anxiety now it is time to complete the circle by Nurturing your gut with mindful food, HERBS lifestyle and rest Please don’t hesitate to reach out if your symptoms, fluctuate or if you need help customising the HARBS or diet as per your prakriti with Patient, consistency and Care.

For managing IBS with predominant diarrhea and bloating, Ayurveda offers several natural interventions, primarily focusing on your digestive fire or agni, and calming your mind, which is interconnected with gut health. First, dietary habits play a critical role. Favor foods that are balancing for Vata dosha, as IBS symptoms may be indicative of a Vata imbalance. Incorporate warm, cooked foods, such as steamed vegetables, soups, rice, and ghee. Avoid raw, cold foods, caffeinated beverages, and excessive spices as these can exacerbate symptoms. A simple home remedy involves using cumin, coriander, and fennel seeds; these can balance your digestion. Boil a teaspoon of each in a cup of water, strain, and drink it twice a day. This decoction may assist in reducing bloating and improving gut motility. Also, consuming a teaspoon of psyllium husk mixed with lukewarm water at bedtime could help normalize bowel movements by absorbing excess fluid and firming stools. Addressing the poor sleep aspect, ensure that your evening routine is calming. Ayurveda suggests drinking warm milk with a pinch of turmeric and a dash of nutmeg before bed. This can enhance sleep quality and relaxation. Ashwagandha, an adaptogenic herb, is known for its calming properties; taking it in the morning may help mitigate stress and support restful sleep. Practicing calming breathing exercises, like alternate nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhana), can help reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality. Additionally, regular abhyanga or self-massage with warm sesame oil can soothe your nervous system and improve circulation. Remember, establishing a consistent daily routine or dinacharya is pivotal. Try to eat, sleep, and wake up at the same time daily. Limiting screen time before bed, and ensuring your sleeping environment is quiet and dark are simple yet effective ways to improve sleep. While these strategies may provide relief, if symptoms persist, it's crucial to consult a healthcare professional to rule out other conditions and receive further guidance tailored to your needs.
