Thank you, George, for clearly explaining your condition. I can understand how frustrating and uncomfortable it must be to deal with such a reaction from so many common foods a year. The digestive system becomes more sensitive and when this is combined with long-term imbalances in diet or past lifestyle habits, it’s start showing up in multiple ways, food intolerance, bloating, itching, and skin darkening. from what you have shared, it is very clear that your body is struggling to properly process and eliminate certain types of food, especially heavy oily or Farman table. Once the signs like bloating, gas at night, skin, hitching and burning sensation in thecolon area, suggest that your digestive fire has been become irregular and sensitive. This has likely led to buildup. Talk digested waste in the body which is now irritating, both your skin and internal organs According to Ayurveda digestion is the foundation of health. When digestion is not balanced. It doesn’t lead to gas or bloating. It affects the blood skin joints and Dwan mind. Let’s start by making sense of your symptoms. You mentioned that carbohydrates, pulses, fried and fatty foods and most fruits are triggering floating and stomach upset. These are all either Farman table or heavy to digest items as we ate the ability of the gut to break down such foods naturally declined, especially if digestion is weak or if there is a chronic inflammation in the intestine. When food is not properly digested, it stays in the gut longer for months produces gas and releases irritants that affect both the cut lining and the skin. This also causes toxins to enter the blood stream which can lead to allergic reactions, itching or even skin, darkening and thickening as you mentioned around the Car area, the calf skin darkening could also be related to Poor circulation or Venus information, which again connects to internal heat and dryness overtime burning in the colon at night,along with gas formation shows that the accumulated gas is not only irritating your sleep but also affecting the sensitive mucosa of your rectal area

Now coming to your solutions first and four, most importantly, you will need to completely reset your digestion for at least 3 to 4 weeks. Stick to a very simple and soft that this means only warm, freshly cooked food, preferably in semi solid or well cooked form. Avoid all fruits, Raw salads fried items, packet, snacks, and anything that comes from the fridge. Start your day with warm water, even better if boiled and cold slightly. you may add a pinch of dry ginger or fennel seeds in the boiling water sip this water throughout the day instead of plain water for breakfast have soft rice porridge. aur a lightly cooked moong dal Khichdi with a pinch of cumin avoid bread, biscuits, milk, Aunty in the morning mid morning, if you’re hungry, you can take a few soaked almonds that have been peeled or some cooked apple or beer, depending upon what you tolerate for lunch, eat only well cooked rice or soft wheat Pulka with one vegetable and millet. Dal avoid rajma Channa or A Daal don’t eat curd or milk You can have butter milk in a diluted form with pinch of rocks, salt, and roasted cumin powder. If you want something so you can use a little lemon juice on food just before eating dinner. Should be early around sunset or before 8 PM and very light Khichdi with a teaspoon of ghee and boiled vegetables is ideal

Ghee is important in your case because it helps reduce internal dryness and soda. The lining. It also improves skin moisture from the inside. Make sure to use pure home-made or trusted sources of Desi Koogi in small amounts award, mustard oil or refined oils for now cook with a little coldpressed, coconut or sesame oil, add spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel, two year food to help digestion, but stay away from strong spices like red chilli or Garam Masala

No regarding your skin symptoms, apply coconut oil, or castor oil mixed with little turmeric to the calves once a day, this can open the skin and reduce inflammation. If the hitching is too much. You take a bath with water boiled with Neem leaves and cool to worm temperature. Do not use harsh soaps. Use mild herbal soap just gram flour with turmeric while bathing.

For your digestion and gas problem in mild herbal combination of dried ginger fennel, and Ajwain equal parts can be taken as a pinch before or after meals, if gas and burning or too strong, take a little warm water with a pinch of rock salt and cumin boiled in it before lunch for night, taking half teaspoon of cow ghee in warm water before sleep, help reduce colon irritation and shooters gas buildup, it also supports BOWEL health and skin healing over time

When it comes to lifestyle, avoid sleeping in daytime and avoid heavy dinner late at night. Go for short, slow walk after meals. It will help your direction and circulation, especially to your legs if possible, raise your legs slightly when lying down by placing a pillow under the CALVES, this will help with the skin darkening and circulation.

No talking about herbal internal support, depending upon your strength and digestion, a gentle combination of harps that so the gut lining reduce internal heat and helps in clearing toxins, maybe useful Giloyghan vati -one tablet twice daily after food with warm water Amlaki rasayana-teaspoon with warm water daily once Avipattikara churna-1/2 with water before meals are very beneficial. In your case, strong detox or progression should be avoided. Instead, you need to slow clearing the toxin through light and calming of internal heat.

Sleep is very important. You said gas formation at night is affecting sleep. That happens when the digestion is incomplete and mentation continuous even after lying down. So please finish dinner before 7 PM. Take a short walk and drink a cup of warm water with a pinch of fennel before Sleep try to avoid lying down immediately after eating.

Avoid watching TV later at night, if your mind is calm and die is quite sleepy improve. This will also help produce information and skin reactions.

Healing at your age is possible, but it takes patience and consistent effort. You do not need complicated diets or harsh medicines. All your symptoms are linked to a common cause.-30 sensitive digestion, internal heat and talks in buildup if you take care of this with one routine and correct, you will start seeing improvement, not only your stomach but also in the skin

Take this steps for at least a month and then says your symptoms. If the response is good. Then further herbal support and deep cleansing can be done under observation. You’re not alone and you’re not helpless. Your body is asking for support teenage clear way and Ayurveda the tool to help you respond. Naturally, please keep faith in process and take one day at a time. I am here if you need more guidance, thank you.

HELLO GEORGE THOMAS,

AT THE AGE OF 72, YOUR BODY IS NATURALLY EXPERIENCING A REDUCTION IN DIGESTIVE CAPACITY,WHICH IN AYURVEDA IS DESCRIBED AS THE WEAKENING OF “AGNI”(DIGESTIVE FIRE).

THIS WEAKENED AGNI IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF “AMA” FORMATION- PARTIALLY DIGESTED, TOXIC RESIDUES THAT ACCUMULATE IN THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT AND TISSUES, LEADING TO SYMPTOMS SUCH AS BLOATING, GAS, BURNING IN THE COLON, SKIN ITCHING AND FOOD INTOLERANCE.

THE FACT THAT YOU ARE REACTING NEGATIVELY TO COMMON FOOD GROUPS LIKE CARBOHYDRATES, PULSES,FATTY FOODS, AND FRUITS SUGGESTS THAT YOUR GUT LINING IS INFLAMED AND HYPERSENSITIVE.

AYURVEDA RECOGNIZES THIS STATE AS A MIX OF VATA AND PITTA IMBALANCE,WHEREIN THE ERRATIC NATURE OF VATA(GAS, BLOATING, DISTURBED SLEEP,DRYNESS)COMBINES WITH THE SHARP, PENETRATING QUALITY OF PITTA(BURNING SENSATION, SKIN INFLAMMATION, FOOD REACTIONS).

OVERTIME,THIS CHRONIC IMBALANCE HAS LIKELY CAUSED RAKTA DUSTI(IMPURITIES OF BLOOD), LEADING TO THE DARK, THICKENED PATCHES ON YOUR CALF SKIN, WHICH ARE SIGNS OF LONG-STANDING ALLERGIC REACTION AND DISTURBED METABOLIC WASTE PROCESSING.

YOUR CONDITION IS NOOT JUST A SURFACE-LEVEL DIGESTION PROBLEM BUT A DEEPER SYSTEMATIC IMABALNCE THT REQUIRES MULTI-LEVEL HEALING. THE GAS FORMATION ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT,POINTS TO A DISTURBED APANA VATA, THE SUBTYPE OF VATA RESPONSIBLE FOR LOWER ABDOMINAL FUNCTIONONG AND SLEEP REGULATION.WHEN APANA VATA IS BLOCKED OR DISTURBED DUE TO AMA AND PITTA AGGRAVATION, IT STARTS MOVING UPWARD WHICH CAUSES GAS,DISCOMFORT IN THE COLON, AND SLEEP ISSUES.

BURNING IN THE COLON AT NIGHT IS A CLASSIC SIGN OF PITTA ACCUMULATION IN THE LARGE INTESTINE, AGGRAVATED BY POOR DIGESTION, FRIED/OILY AND SUPPRESSED TOXINS.

FROM AN AYURVEDIC STAND POINT, THE ENTIRE GUT NEEDS TO BE DETOXIFIED, THE DIGESTIVE FIRE REKINDLED, AND THE PITTA-VATA BALANCE RESTORED TO ADDRESS BOTH THE INTERNAL DISCOMFORT AND EXTERNAL SKIN MANIFESTATION

SO TREATMENT IS TO AIM AT 1)REMOVE TOXINS AND IMPROVE DIGESTION 2)BALANCE PITTA AND VATA DOSHA 3)DETOXIFY AND PURIFY THE BLOOD 4)RESTORE GUT FUNCTION AND REGULARIZE BOWEL MOVEMENTS 5)REJUVINATE TISSUE AND STRENGTHEN IMMUNITY

LIFESTYLE- -WALK 15-20 MIN AFTER MEALS -SLEEP BY 10 PM AVOID LATE NIGHT EATING -APPLY NEEM OIL OR COW GHEE ON CALVES TO SOOTHE SKIN -PRACTICE SHEETALI OR SHEETAKARI PRANAYAM FOR CALMING INTERNA HEAT

#PHASE 2- STRENGTHEN DIGESTION AND HEAL GUT DURATION-6-8 WEEKS GOALS- -FURTHER IMPROVE DIGESTIVE FUNCTION -HEAL INTESTINAL MUCOSA AND REDUCE HYPERSENSITIVITY -REDUCE ALLERGIC REACTIONS AND ITCHING -REGULARIZE BOWEL MOVEMENTS AND REDUCE TOXIN ACCUMULATION

Addressing food intolerances and allergic reactions through an Ayurvedic approach requires a holistic understanding of your individual constitution and imbalances. Your symptoms suggest a potential aggravation of the Pitta dosha, with signs such as skin itching, burning sensation, and digestive disturbances like bloating and gas.

First, let’s address the bloating and gas issues. Prioritize foods that are light and easy to digest, such as well-cooked grains like rice or quinoa, and steamed vegetables like zucchini and carrots. Avoid foods known to disturb your digestion like fried items, fats, and certain pulses you’re sensitive to.

To support your agni, or digestive fire, consider starting your meals with a small piece of fresh ginger sprinkled with lemon juice and a pinch of rock salt. This simple practice can help stimulate digestion. Drink warm water throughout the day to promote digestion and absorption while avoiding ice-cold drinks, which can further dampen your digestive fire.

For the itching and skin thickening, topical application of a soothing herbal paste made from sandalwood and neem, slightly moistened with rose water, can help. Apply this paste to the affected areas and leave it on for about 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with warm water. This blend helps to soothe inflammation and alleviate itching.

Incorporate cooling and calming practices in your routine, such as gentle yoga and meditation, to help balance Pitta and reduce overall stress. Avoid exposure to heat and make sure to wear cooling, breathable fabrics.

Since your symptoms also include a burning sensation in the colon, it would be beneficial to include fennel and coriander tea into your daily routine. These herbs are known for their cooling properties and can soothe the digestive system.

Please remember, If symptoms persist seem severe, or interfere with daily life, consider consulting a healthcare provider for tailored guidance. Your safety and well-being are important, and timely professional advice can prevent further complications.

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. 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. 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. Arshad Mohammad
I am working in the ayurvedic field since like 3 years now and honestly still feel like there's always more to learn, even after handling so many different kind of cases in both OPD and IPD settings. That mix of outdoor and indoor care changed the way I understand patients—like, not just quick consults but full-on long term treatments where u really gotta observe body patterns, reactions, progress... or even no progress, which is tricky. Sometimes even when the textbook says one thing, patients show something else entirely n you gotta adapt. I deal with a mix of things—digestive issues, skin problems, mild joint pain stuff, lifestyle triggers—and each case kinda adds a new layer to my approach. Working closely with both acute and chronic patients taught me how much small details matter, like even diet timing or mental state can flip how someone respond to a herb. It’s not about formulas—u gotta watch, tweak, rewatch. I do spend time explaining what the treatment plan actually means. Like not just “take this churnam 2 times daily” but *why* it fits their prakruti or condition. That makes ppl stick to it better, I feel. Also yeah, I’ve worked in setups where it was just me managing the flow—making clinical calls, followups, keeping records, sometimes even basic panchakarma guidance when support was limited. That kinda multitasking helped build real confidence, not the paper type but actual “you’re responsible here” type. And it shows me that patient trust comes not from using big words but from clear answers n slow steady improvements they can *feel.* Not everything works fast. But if u observe closely, listen well, and don’t rush—ayurveda does work.

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. 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. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

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?

ChatGPT said: 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. 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. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.
