Hello Nimesh, for managing diverticulitis, fatty liver, gas, acidity, and irregular bowel movements, Ayurveda focuses on balancing digestion and improving liver health. Arogyavardhini Vati supports liver health and detoxification but needs to taken after proper guidance, while Triphala Churna (1 tsp with warm water at night) regulates bowel movements, and Avipattikar Churna helps reduce acidity, gas, and indigestion (1tsp twice after meals). Kutki is effective for improving liver function.(dosage varies). A light, warm, easily digestible diet with cooked vegetables, whole grains, and fiber-rich foods is recommended, while avoiding spicy, oily, and processed foods that aggravate acidity. Warm water should be taken throughout the day. Incorporating Abhyanga (warm sesame oil massage), light exercise, and yoga (like Pavanmuktasana) helps with digestion and bloating. Digestive aids such as ginger tea or a mix of jeera and ajwain with warm water can further improve digestion. Regular meal timings and proper chewing are key to avoiding digestive flare-ups.

To manage your conditions of diverticulitis, fatty liver, gas, acidity, and irregular bowel movements, a comprehensive Ayurvedic approach can be beneficial. Consider using Avipattikara Churna, which helps reduce acidity and improve digestion, alleviating symptoms of indigestion, gas, and bloating. Kanchanar Guggulu supports liver health and metabolism, making it beneficial for fatty liver while also aiding digestion and regulating bowel movements. For diarrhea management, Kutaj Ghan Vati has astringent properties that can firm up stools, and Triphala promotes regular bowel movements and detoxifies the digestive tract, helping with both constipation and diarrhea. Additionally, Chitrakadi Vati enhances appetite and digestion, reducing gas and bloating. It’s essential to follow a light, easily digestible diet consisting of cooked vegetables, whole grains, and legumes while avoiding processed foods, excessive oils, and fried items to reduce the burden on your liver and digestive system. Incorporating ginger tea can further aid digestion. Complementing these remedies with practices like yoga and meditation can help manage stress, which often exacerbates digestive issues. Staying well-hydrated with warm water or herbal teas can support overall digestion. For personalized guidance, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner is recommended.

Oh dear, sounds like you’ve got quite a mix of things going on there. So let’s try and untangle this a bit. Your symptoms of indigestion, acidity, and alternations between diarrhea and constipation suggest some disturbance in your digestive agni, or the digestive fire, as it’s often called in Ayurveda. This agni has to be in balance for proper digestion and in your case, it seems to be a bit imbalanced.

Considering, you’ve mentioned diverticulitis and a fatty liver, both conditions fundamentally require attention to your digestive system and lifestyle. Fatty liver in particular often calls for a diet that’s light and easy on the liver – think of green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits (but avoid the excessively sour ones) and whole grains.

For indigestion, we gotta help that agni get back on track. Simple routine changes like starting your day with a glass of warm water could kickstart things nicely. Adding a pinch of turmeric or ginger might help further since they’re known to support digestion recovery.

You should try to avoid or at least minimize deep-fried foods, alcohol, excessive caffeine and sugary treats, as they can pull that agni down. Smaller, frequent meals tend to be kinder on a delicate digestive system, too. Focus on cooked meals – they’re more digestible than raw foods.

Building regular habits could also ease things up. Eating and sleeping at roughly the same times every day provides rhythmic stability for your body. Also, include a bit of exercise – even just a 20-minute walk a day is beneficial.

About constipation and diarrhea, that’s the body’s way of telling you things aren’t moving along smoothly. A simple herb like triphala could be a gentle support to regulate your bowel movements and it’s also good for strengthening the digestive system. Take 1 tsp. with warm water before bed, but see how your body reacts to it.

Your symptoms are complex and need careful observation. If you notice severe pain or sudden changes, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional promptly to rule out any complications. It’s also good to remind that self-care is a loving journey. Be patient with yourself as you’re moving towards a balanced state of well-being.
