My body doesn't feel the amount of food I eat. I don't even know whether whatever I say is digested in the body or not. I do so many exercises and say so many things but it doesn't get reflected in the body

Namaste gurmeet
It seems your digestion and absorption are weak, which is why food efforts aren’t showing in the body. This is often due to low digestive fire, you can start on.
Chitrakadi vati-one time to 3 times daily
Ashwagandha churna-half teaspoon with warm milk, cut night for nourishment
Eat freshly cooked, warm meals at regular times
Avoid cold food raw salads and frequent snacking
Have dinner before 8 PM sleep early. Do walking pranayama Yoga regularly with consistency, your body will start reflecting the nourishment you give it.

Hey Gurmeet,if your body type is lean , and no health issues.dont worry your body prakriti is vataj. Generally body gains wt after 25 or 30yrs.
If you still need to take medicines -
Mahadrakshasav (15 ml with liquid) twice a day
Arogyavrdhini vati 2 tab twice a day.
Will help your metabolism. And liver activity
#Eat consciously:Focus on warm, freshly cooked meals
Add spices like cumin, ajwain, ginger to improve digestion
Chew food properly, eat in calm surroundings
2. Strengthen digestion (Ayurveda tips):
Drink a cup of warm water with ginger and lemon before meals
Avoid very cold drinks and raw salads for now
Add ghee in your diet.
Some home remedies -
Take 1–2 tsp of this mix 15–20 minutes before lunch and dinner:
Ginger juice – 1 tsp
Lemon juice – 1 tsp
A pinch of rock salt or black salt
2.Soak 4–5 raisins and 1 fig overnight — eat them first thing in the morning
3.Take this daily with milk or warm water:
1 tsp Ashwagandha powder + ½ tsp ghee + pinch of nutmeg
Once your digestion strengthens, you’ll start feeling the food working — better energy, weight balance, mental clarity, and strength.

To support your digestive health, it's essential to consider your unique constitution, or prakriti, and potential dosha imbalances. From an Ayurvedic perspective, digestion is governed by agni, or digestive fire, and any disturbances in agni can affect how you feel after eating.
First, take a closer look at how you eat rather than just what you eat. Eating mindfully can do wonders for your digestive system. Avoid distractions like TV or smartphones during meals; focus on your food. Try to eat in a calm and relaxed state, ensuring that you chew your food thoroughly.
Considering Vata dosha might be influencing your digestion, you may want to incorporate warming, grounding foods. Think of cooked grains like rice and oats, warm stews and soups, and spices such as ginger, cumin, and fennel in your meals. It provides warmth and stability, supporting digestion and assimilation of nutrients.
Hydration is important but avoid consuming large amounts of water immediately before or after meals, as it can dilute digestive juices. Drink lukewarm or hot water throughout the day instead of cold beverages.
Another practice to aid digestion is a gentle daily routine of yoga or pranayama. Simples poses like bhujangasana (cobra pose) or pavanamuktasana (wind-relieving pose) stimulate the digestive tract. Pranayama techniques such as nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) can stabilize the mind and body, supporting digestion.
A valuable herbal ally in Ayurveda is Triphala. It's a gentle detoxifier, providing a balanced effect on the digestive system. Take a small dose of Triphala at bedtime with warm water, but consult a qualified practitioner if you have specific health concerns.
Finally, if you are experiencing persistent discomfort or lack of improvement, consider seeking guidance from an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner. They can offer personalized advice based on a comprehensive assessment, helping in aligning your lifestyle and diet to optimize digestion effectively.

HELLO GURMEET MEHTA,
COMPLAINTS- doesn't feel food is digested
-no sense of assimilation or nourishment
-exercise and diet efforts don't reflect in the body
This point towards weakened digestive fire and possibly rasadhatu formation(first dhatu responsible for nutrition), leading to malabsorption
AYURVEDIC PROBABLE DIAGNOSIS
Digestive fire= is sluggish and erratic(mandagni and vishamagni)
Dhatu Nirman= weak rasadhatu and possibly low mamsa-meda dhatu
Toxin(Ama)= likely present - impaired metabolism
Dosha= vata-pitta vitiation likely
Srotas= GI tract issue, nutrient assimilation hampered(Annavaha , rasavaha srotas)
