You can have belgiri churna twice a day before food. Take it with White butter (मखन) if possibel.

You can substitute it with BILAGYL. It is a avleha and you can consume it directly 1 tsp twice a day.

Along with it add

Tab. Kutaj Parpati Vati 2 tabs twice a day before food. Cap. Mebarid (S.G.Phytopharma) 2 caps twice a day before food (this will help reduce your motion episodes)

Eat lots of White butter, cow ghee, cow milk. Butter milk works as a medicine. Home made buttermilk 4-5 times a day works as AMRIT.

Eat cucumber. Avoid other salad item.

Completely avoid WHEAT. eat only millet rotis.

Hello kirti, Thank you for reaching out and trusting this platform with your health journey and completely understand how exhausting it can be to live with something like IBS with diarrhoea for long time, especially when it disturbs, not just digestion, but your old body life and emotional balance at 25, you should feel full of energy confidence and is in your body, but when they doesn’t support you, it can feel like a constant internal struggle that others may not fully see or understand. So first of all please know that your condition is neither imaginary, not trivial IBS with diarrhoea may not always show on test reports, but the discomfort you are feeling is absolutely valid and Ayurveda offers not just symptomatic relief, but also a way to understand and correct the underlying imbalances

Based on what you are shared, long-term diarrhoea, bloating, stomach discomfort. It sounds like your Agni or digestive fire has become irregular and weak over time. This is very common in IBS type disorders, especially when there is a predominance of VATA in the colon and PITTAin the small intestine. The repeated pan of loose tools combined with frequent bloating is a sign of disturbed signal moment and improper digestion at the level of both annavaha srotas and purishavaha srotas , your colon is likely hypersensitive, not able to retain matter for the full duration, and the small intestine may not be observing nutrition properly due to irritation or inflammation over time. This create a cycle move too quickly. Direction becomes incomplete, bloating, and discomfort, and the gut remains in a constant state of reactivity when this pattern last for years the body begins to feel weaker, mind, more anxious, and emotions. More sensitive.

In such conditions belgiri Chona can become a beautiful and gentle ally. Bael fruit is known in Ayurveda as one of the best dealers for chronic diarrhoea, especially when these tools or water are frequent and accompanied by bloating… it’s kashaya and madhura rasa helps in reducing intestinal irritation and excessive peristalsis it nous, the mucosal lining, reduces inflammation, and slowly strengthens the:’s ability to hold and process food waste properly, but remember the way you take belgiri churna matters just as much as the urban itself

Since your condition as lasted for several years, and the gut is quite reactive. I would advise starting gently begin with just half teaspoon of belgiri churna in the early morning on an empty stomach, mix it in a half glass of blue corn water still well and drink it slowly you can increase to 1 teaspoon after a few days if your body feels comfortable with the response

Avoid taking it with cold water or milk as that can disturb digestion further The best time to take it in early morning about 30 to 45 minutes before your breakfast. If you tend to get diarrhoea or bloating more in the evening or night, then a second smaller dose around half teaspoon can be taken again around 5 PM with warm water and never immediately before or after food

Belgiri churna works gradually, it is not a harsh binding agent like Sampath anti-diarrhoea rather a natural tonic intestines to behave more rhythmic Kali. That is why consistency is very important. You need to continue these for at least 4 to 6 weeks to start seeing deeper improvements in the beginning, these tools may not become fully formed immediately, but you may start noticing reduced urgency. Let’s bloating and Kumar belly after meal. These are early sign of improvement.

Along with this, you need to care deeply for your daily routine and eating habits because IBS is not just a colon issue. It is often a full system imbalance involving the nervous system hormones and digestive rhythms. Please avoid eating every friend or overly spiced food. Strictly avoid cold drinks, refrigerator items, salads, and milk based sweets. This food increase the VATA and KPHA and can create more bloating or irregularity instead, favour, soft, warm and lightly spices foods like moong dal ki rice with boiled vegetables with Ajwa or so and simple soups. Don’t skip meals and do not delay them unnecessarily as that aggravates VATA and version your gut moments it slowly you well and avoid drinking water during meals, only small amounts if needed.

You may also benefit from adding a picture of dry roasted AJWAIN and hang after meals to prevent gas formation, taking 1 teaspoon of Thriphala churna with loom water at time will be more beneficial and it will the intestine, and even you can combine this with half teaspoon of belgiri churna But do this only after one week of adjusting to the morning dose

If your bloating is very dominant and persistent, even after meals, you may consider boiling half teaspoon, each of coriander seeds, final seats and cumin seeds, 2 cups of water and reducing to 1 cup strain and sip the warm decor twice a day, mid morning and evening It supports digestion without irritating the bowel…

On the emotional level, please try to create more grounding and calmness in your daily routine, waking up and sleeping at times eating without breathing slowly after meals and practising even five minutes of alternate nostril, breathing every morning can go along Way in calming hyperactive gut. Remember In Ayurveda, the gut and Mind or interconnected and anxious mind makes the gut more irritable and an inflamed gut increases anxiety, so healing both together brings the best result

IBS, along with diarrhoea is not in curable. Your body wants to heal. It simply needs the right support, consistent rhythm, and deep nourishment with being overloaded. Please do not get your healing by single days or one power movement. Observe your overall pattern every 7 to 10 days. How do you feel after food? Often need toilet, restless, your stomach feels and then make adjustments.

I’ll be here to guide you further as your symptom evolve, but for now, let’s hear your body slowly reconnect. Thank you.

When we’re looking at managing IBS with diarrhea using Ayurvedic remedies like bael fruit (belgiri) churna, understanding the root imbalances is important. Here’s a breakdown of how to incorporate belgiri churna into your routine:

First, pay attention to timing. The best time to consume belgiri churna for digestive health is on an empty stomach in the morning. This allows it to work optimally with your digestive system. Take around 1 teaspoon of belgiri churna, which is typically about 3 to 5 grams. Mix it in a glass of warm water and consume it right away. If mornings are inconvenient, taking it in the evening at least 2 hours after your last meal can also be effective.

For consistent benefits, make this a daily practice, adjusting if needed based on your body’s response. It’s important to be patient; results may take a few weeks to become noticeable.

Besides taking belgiri churna, it’s crucial to support your digestive fire, or ‘agni’, which is often impaired in IBS. Eating meals at regular intervals, avoiding cold drinks with meals, and favoring warm, cooked foods can balance agni. Also, refrain from excessively spicy, oily, or processed foods as they can exacerbate discomfort.

Including yoga or pranayama, like deep breathing or alternate nostril breathing, helps in stress relief and improves gut health. Stress often plays a big role in IBS, so this has a twofold benefit.

Monitor your symptoms and if there’s no improvement after a month, consulting a local Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized advice could be beneficial. Keep in mind that if your condition worsens or you experience severe symptoms like daily vomiting, blood in stools, or weight loss, seek immediate medical attention, as these require more urgent care. Always listen to your body and adjust the approach as needed.

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 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.

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. 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. Amina CA
I am still kinda wrapping my head around how much has happned in just these last 8 months. I got to see over 500 patients—not just names on a file but real ppl with stories, symptoms that didn’t match books, and responses to treatment that taught me a lot more than classroom ever did. Every single case added something—sometimes confidence, sometimes doubt, but mostly clarity about why Ayurveda needs to be personal. That whole idea of root-cause isn’t just a phrase to me now, cause I’ve actually *done* the work of figuring it out—through prakriti reading, hetu analysis, tailoring herbs to that one stubborn thing that wouldn’t budge unless I got it right. Started off at the Govt Ayurveda Dispensary, Paingottoor (Mar-April 2024), juggling OPD and learning to keep things practical—what you *can* do with limited time and still follow classical line of treatment. Moved to Nellimattom next month, same OPD scene but somehow I felt more ready—like I knew what I was looking for during consultation. Then came the big shifts—District Ayurveda Hospital, Thodupuzha—Shalya Tantra for a month (May-June). Learning surgical concepts, wound management, minor procedures, all that opened up a whole diff layer of Ayurveda for me. After that was NARIP, Cheruthuruthy (June-July)—real-deal Panchakarma, hands-on, under ppl who *really* knew the texts and the techiques. I saw how deep detox can go when it’s done right. Then Shalakya Tantra (ENT + eye care, July-Aug)—very niche but suprisingly common complaints. By Sept I was at Sparsh Ayurvedic Clinic, Nellimattom, and that place blended modern diagnostics with our way of thinking. Helped me sharpen decisions fast, without losing authenticity of the classical tools. All that put together—it's shaped me into a doctor who listens more, assumes less, and keeps asking, "what’s *actually* causing this?” before reaching for a remedy. I want my patients to heal for real—not temporarily cope. That's the goal every single time.

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. 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. 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.

I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

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.

I am someone who kinda grew into Panchakarma without planning it much at first... just knew I wanted to understand the deeper layers of Ayurveda, not just the surface stuff. I did both my graduation and post-grad from Govt. Ayurveda Medical College & Hospital in Bangalore — honestly that place shaped a lot of how I think about healing, especially long-term healing. After my PG, I started working right away as an Assistant Professor & consultant in the Panchakarma dept at a private Ayurveda college. Teaching kinda made me realise how much we ourselves learn by explaining things to others... and watching patients go through their detox journeys—real raw healing—was where I got hooked. Now, with around 6 years of clinical exp in Panchakarma practice, I'm working as an Associate Professor, still in the same dept., still learning, still teaching. I focus a lot on individualised protocols—Ayurveda isn't one-size-fits-all and honestly, that’s what makes it tricky but also beautiful. Right now I’m also doing my PhD, it’s on female infertility—a topic I feel not just academically drawn to but personally invested in, cause I see how complex and layered it gets for many women. Managing that along with academics and patient care isn’t super easy, I won’t lie, but it kinda fuels each other. The classroom work helps my clinical thinking, and my clinical work makes me question things in research more sharply. There's a lot I still wanna explore—especially in how we explain Panchakarma better to newer patients. Many people still think it's just oil massage or some spa thing but the depth is wayyy beyond that. I guess I keep hoping to make that clarity come through—whether it’s in class or during a consult or even during a quick OPD chat.
