can sitopaladi churna be taken with water - #25176
I am really confused right now about this whole thing with this herbal remedy called sitopaladi churna. I started taking it a few weeks ago because I heard it's great for respiratory issues and I thought it would help with my chronic cough. My friend swears by it. But I just realized I've been taking sitopaladi churna with honey, which is what the instructions said, but I'm also wondering can sitopaladi churna be taken with water instead? I mean, like, is that okay? Sometimes the honey feels too sweet and I'm not sure if I’m getting the full benefits this way. Also, I've been feeling a bit uneasy about my digestion lately, kind of bloated after meals, and now I’m worried if the sitopaladi churna is pretty much doing what it's supposed to do, or if I’m messing it up by mixing. Can sitopaladi churna be taken with water, or does it lose its effectiveness? Should I just stick to honey? Hoping for some advice from you Ayurvedic docs!

What Is Rhinorrhea, and What Causes It? - #15852
Lately, I’ve been experiencing a runny nose that won’t go away, and I came across the term rhinorrhea while researching. Now I’m wondering—what exactly is rhinorrhea, and what causes it? From what I understand, rhinorrhea is a condition where excess mucus drains from the nose, often due to allergies, colds, or infections. But what are the other possible causes—can it be triggered by certain foods, weather changes, or underlying medical conditions? I also read that rhinorrhea can sometimes be a symptom of sinus infections or even neurological conditions like cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. How do doctors differentiate between common causes and something more serious? Since I prefer natural remedies, I looked into Ayurveda’s approach to rhinorrhea. Are there Ayurvedic herbs, home remedies, or dietary changes that can help manage excessive nasal discharge naturally? I found that Tulsi, ginger tea, and steam inhalation are commonly recommended—do these actually help in reducing rhinorrhea? For those who have experienced rhinorrhea, what treatments worked best? Did antihistamines, home remedies, or Ayurvedic treatments provide better relief? I’d love to hear real experiences on managing rhinorrhea naturally.
