Thank you, Suhail. For honestly sharing your concerns, i understand how difficult and emotional emotionally training. It can be to go through a healthy tissue like dysfunction, especially when it seems to have developed after starting diabetes medicines the sense of discomfort pain in the nerve and the confusion after seeing that all your tests are coming, normal can leave you feeling, stuck and helpless, but let me assure you. There is a deeper way of understanding these symptoms and supporting your health naturally, and Ayurveda offers that kind of approach, it says your condition not just as a local or mechanical issue, but as a result of internal imbalance that can be gently brought back into harmony with the right Care

When you say that it is started after diabetic medicines and your reports are mostly normal. We must understand that what modern medicine might not pick up through scans or basic blood worker body still trying to show through symptoms, diabetes affects the smallest blood vessels and nurse in the body over time, it reduces sensitivity, weakens circulation and interfere with the natural hormonal rhythm that is required for a healthy sexual function. Medicines for diabetes may sometimes improve blood. Sugar control bed can also reduce vitality or sexual drive as a side-effect, especially if dictation and strength or not supported erectile dysfunction is not just a hormonal or blood flow issue. It is also linked to digestion, mental tension, nervous strength, and the overall energy flow in the body. If any of this is compromised, even slightly, the body react.

Let us first speak about digestion and food because that is where all energy begin with the food. You eat is not properly digested and observed then the tissues especially the reproductive and tissues will remain. We can dry. You must eat warm, freshly cooked nourishing food. Avoid cold foods, dry snacks, bakery items, fried items, spicy pickles, and anything that is processed or reheated . Reduce white sugar completely from your diet. Also avoid cold milk, curd, cheese or late night heavy meals. Your meals should be softly spiced with a spoon of GHEE to help observe nutrients use whole grains like millets, old rice, wheat and pulses like green mung and Masoor Daal include lightly steamed vegetables and good fats like GHEE are soaked almonds in moderate quantity

Start your morning with warm water. If your blood sugar is in control, you can soak fenugreek seeds overnight and drink the water on an empty stomach. Even you can chew the Meti seeds which will help you in normalising your blood sugar levels helps in direction and nerve healing.

For breakfast, go for warm moong dal, Chilla vegetable Upma or soft Poha Mid morning, if you feel hungry, have some soaked almonds or a small fruit like apple or papaya

For lunch, make the main meal of the day with Phulka or rice and sabji dal and a little ghee

Avoid sleeping right after meals. Take a slow work for about 10 minutes instead. Dinner should be early and light. You can have warm soup. Khichdi or soft rice with vegetable is ideal.

Know about lifestyle, your body needs regular movement, but not excessive strain every day at least for 20 to 30 minutes of brisk. Walking or slow. Yoga will be very beneficial. Avoid sitting for too long without moment. Try to walk barefoot on grass for about 5 to 10 minutes daily, it helps with nerve connection in the feet and lower stress. The more you stay physically active in a gentle way. The better your blood flow, sugar control and nerve health will become at the same time. Give your body enough. Rest sleep before 10 PM. Keep your room, dark, and quiet. Stay away from screens at least 45 minutes before bed. If you struggle with sleep, take warm water or a pinch of nutmeg in warm milk before bed.

No, let’s address internal support ED that is related to diabetes needs nourishment of the reproductive tissues, calming of the nervous system and strengthening of blood flow to the pelvic area based upon your description. It sounds like there is a mild neuropathy starting in one of the nerves as well for this gentle harps that support, narrow repair circulation and energy levels are useful.

Ashwagandha can be taken half teaspoon at bedtime with warm milk as it supports strength, energy, and stress balance Shilajit-one drop in warm milk can be taken once daily, avoid if you have high blood pressure, and if your digestion is weak It can reduce diabetic weakness Brahmi vati -one tablet twice daily after food with warm milk can be taken it as a natural nerve support supplement

The above are the powerful herbal medicines, which will be very beneficial in your above symptoms

But before taking just see how much is requirement, is there for you and take, even sometimes Amruta when taken in large quantity will act as a poison, so it’s better to take a requirement is there That said these are have shown very good results when used correctly, especially in improving energy, sexual vitality and comfort in diabetic patients

Avoid access sexual activity or stimulation during the ceiling phase. It is important to let the body rebuilt strength. Allow your body and mine to relax more too much pressure, stress, or overthinking and tighten the nurse and Block natural flow. If you’re carrying anxiety about your health speak openly to someone you trust or take time daily to journal or sit quietly. Try 10 minutes of deep breathing at night where you inhale slowly for four seconds. Hold for four seconds and exile for 6 to 8 seconds repeat this cycle for at least 10 rounds. This small habit can shift your nervous system from stress mode to healing mode.

Also, try to avoid excessive mobile or laptop use, especially in the late evening hours constant Screen Time over stimulates the brain and affects both sleep and hormones. If you can spend 15 to 20 minutes outside in early morning sunlight, it helps regulate natural or moon cycles and support metabolism too…

You must trust that your body can repair when given consistent dental care. Diabetes is a condition that demands discipline, and when it affects sexual health, the emotional toll can be very heavy, but I have seen many patients such complications slowly with the direct lifestyle and targeted support. The key is regularity and trust…

Do not expect sudden miracle healing, take time, but it is definitely going to work in a positive way

You are not alone in this and most importantly, your condition is not the end. It is a signal from your body asking for change with Patient right food, right sleep movement, and the harps. It is very much possible to bring your energy and confidence back. I am here to help you if you want to go deeper or need a more personalised approach. You don’t have to give up. Your healing can begin with small changes and they will make a big difference.

Respected Doctor,

Thank you very much for your detailed suggestions and clarifications. I have carefully noted all your guidelines.

I would like to bring to your kind attention my recent blood test reports from two weeks ago. My HbA1c is 6.9, kidney function tests (KFT) are within normal limits, but the urine analysis showed +2 protein. My total cholesterol is 238 mg/dL and triglycerides are 380 mg/dL. I am currently taking allopathic medication only for diabetes.

As mentioned earlier, I have received a few recommendations for managing erectile dysfunction (ED) and the presence of protein in the urine. However, since the suggestions vary, I am a bit confused about which one to follow.

Therefore, I humbly request you to kindly prescribe a suitable Ayurvedic medicine regimen that addresses all my current health concerns. I am keen to follow your advice consistently and sincerely.

Thank you once again…

Considering your concerns, uncontrolled diabetes can impact circulation and nerve health, potentially leading to issues like erectile dysfunction (ED) and nerve pain. In Ayurveda, such conditions can result from imbalances in vata dosha, especially affecting the nervous system and circulatory health. Here’s a therapeutic approach from Ayurvedic principles:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Focus on a kapha-balancing diet to help manage blood sugar levels, including whole grains like barley and quinoa. Bitter gourd and fenugreek seeds can be particularly beneficial, since they help regulate blood sugar. Avoid refined sugars, processed foods, and excess dairy, they can aggravate your condition. Fresh vegetables and moderate fruits, like berries, are good for keeping your microvascular health in check.

2. Herbal Support: Ashwagandha and Shatavari are rejuvenating herbs that may aid in nerve health and vitality. A decoction of these herbs, taken twice daily after meals, might help restore balance. Ayurvedic texts often mention these as rasayana (rejuvenative) herbs to support vitality and strength.

3. Lifestyle Recommendations: Regular but gentle physical activity, like walking or yoga, will help in maintaining healthy circulation and combating stress, which can exacerbate ED. Practices like pranayama, especially anulom-vilom and bhramari, will enhance your vitality by keeping vata in check and calming the mind.

4. Massage (Abhyanga): Using warm sesame oil for gentle daily body massage can be beneficial. It promotes circulation, alleviates vata imbalance, and supports nerve health. Apply the oil in circular motions on limbs and joints before bathing – 15 minutes a day can show positive effects over time.

5. Consult a Professional: Though Ayurveda offers considerable promise, it’s essential to work alongside your current physician or an Ayurvedic practitioner, especially since diabetes management is multifaceted. Monitor any interactions between Ayurvedic herbs and your existing medications to ensure safety.

Given the complexity of diabetes and related issues like ED, frequent consultations with your healthcare provider is crucial. These recommendations might help complement your existing treatment but always prioritize a balanced approach keyed into continuous monitoring and adjustments.

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.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

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.

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. 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. 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.

Dr. Jatin Kumar Sharma
I am a BAMS graduate and currently running my own clinic, where I see patients on a regular basis and try to give them honest, practical care. My daily work involves understanding different health concerns, listening properly to what the patient is going through, and then planning treatment in a way that actually fits their routine. I believe treatment should not feel confusing or rushed, and sometimes even small changes make a big difference. Running my own clinic has taught me a lot about responsibility and consistency. Some days are busy, some are slow, but every patient brings a different challenge and learning. I focus mainly on Ayurvedic treatment methods, lifestyle correction and long-term health balance, rather than quick fixes. There are times when progress takes longer, but I stay patient and keep working with the person step by step. I try to keep my approach simple, practical and honest. For me, real success is when a patient feels better in daily life, sleeps better, eats better and slowly regains balance. That is what keeps me going and improving every day.

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. Surya Bhagwati
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.

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.

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.
