Doctors' responses

You’re not alone in this many people go through a phase where digestion becomes hypersensitive, especially after stress, infections, or irregular habits. Even though your endoscopy and reports are normal, Ayurveda looks deeper: this sounds like Mandagni (weak digestive fire), where your body can’t process heavy foods like nuts, fats, or fried items.Instead of digesting, the system creates gas, pain, and fullness, and nutrients don’t absorb properly that’s why you’re unintentionally losing weight.In Ayurveda, this is a case of Agni Dusthi + Vata-Pitta aggravation, and if we don’t correct it, the body stays in a “rejecting” mode bloating, aversion to food, and fatigue continue.

1. Internal Ayurvedic Medicines

-Trikatu Churna – 1 pinch with warm water before meals Boosts digestive fire, prevents bloating -Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water Relieves acidity, pain, and bloating -Hingvastak Churna – 1 tsp after meals with warm water or ghee Relaxes gut muscles, reduces Vata and gas -Pippalyadi Ghrita – 1 tsp on empty stomach (optional if tolerable) Strengthens intestines, supports nutrient absorption

2. Diet Tips (3–4 Weeks Strictly)

Eat soft, warm, easy-to-digest food only (khichdi, rice + moong dal, boiled veg) Avoid nuts, heavy protein, salads, fried food, bakery, and curd Add ajwain, jeera, and hing to every meal Drink boiled water with cumin + fennel seeds throughout the day Small, frequent meals every 3 hours don’t overload the stomach

3. Lifestyle Tips Sit calmly while eating; don’t talk, scroll, or rush Walk for 10 mins after meals Avoid lying down within 2 hours of meals Sleep by 10:30 PM to support natural digestion rhythm

Track Progress If weight continues to fall or appetite worsens: Repeat stool test (to rule out malabsorption) Check thyroid panel + Vitamin B12 Consider mild Panchakarma (Virechana or Deepana-Basti) later

Hello Sunny Dangi, Thank you for sharing your symptoms. I can understand your concern regarding bloating and pain after eating. But dont worry we are here to help you out. 😊

Despite normal endoscopy and lab tests, your bloating, pain after eating, early fullness, and unintended weight loss are pointing toward functional gut imbalance that’s common but it gets missed oftenly

AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE In Ayurveda, this condition is likely due to ☑️Mandagni (weakened digestive fire) ☑️Presence of Aama (undigested toxins) ☑️Possibly Grahani (intestinal weakness) ☑️Vata–Pitta imbalance in your gut

INTERNAL. MEDICATION

1 Agnitundi Vati 1-0-1 before breakfast and dinner (Improves Agni) 2 Acidonil 2-0-2 after food (balances pitta ) 3. Hingwashtak Churna ½ tsp with warm water just before lunch ( prevents indigestion and bloating) 4. Dadimadi ghrita 1 tsp at bed time follwed by warm. Water ( heals your gastric mucosa )

DIET MODIFICATION

✅ Include Warm, lightly spiced khichdi, moong dal soup Bottlegourd (lauki), pumpkin, carrots, spinach Soft-cooked rice + ghee Ginger tea, cumin-coriander-fennel tea Amla juice (20 ml) in morning

❌ Avoid:

Nuts, fried food, dairy (milk/curd), wheat bread Fermented food (idli/dosa), cold drinks Tea/coffee excess Overeating or late-night meals

Eat small meals every 3–4 hours, chew slowly.

✅Herbal. Water Boil 1L water with: 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp ajwain ½ tsp dry ginger powder Strain and sip warm all day ✅ Reduces bloating, strengthens Agni, clears Aama

** Yoga & Lifestyle **

Vajrasana after meals Pawanmuktasana helps. To Relieves gas Anulom Vilom (10 mins/day) Balances Vata Sleep before 10 PM Have dinner before sunset

❌Avoid: Daytime sleep Overthinking, screen during meals Cold water or fridge food

Ayurveda helps by removing toxins, improving digestion, and healing the gut from inside.

This treatment will help you to = ✅ Improve digestive fire (Agni) ✅ Reduce bloating and early fullness ✅ Heal intestinal mucosa ✅ Regulate weight and improve nutrient uptake

You will get better with a few simple, consistent changes. Wishing you complete gut healing

Warm. Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

This bloating and pain after eating, especially with heavier foods, may indicate an imbalance in your digestive agni or possibly a dosha imbalance, such as Vata. When agni becomes weakened, digestion is impaired leading to symptoms like bloating and heaviness. Let’s sort this situation with easy steps grounded in Ayurveda.

Start first with your eating habits. Focus on eating warm, cooked meals that are easy to digest. Light soups, well-cooked grains like rice and quinoa, and light vegetables such as zucchini or carrots can be beneficial. Consider adding spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel to stimulate digestion.

Drinking a tea made of ginger can help. Take a small piece of fresh ginger, boil it in water for 5-10 minutes, and sip this tea about 30 minutes before eating. This can enhance your agni and help relieve that bloating sensation.

Also, reduce intake of cold or iced beverages and raw salads, as they can dampen agni further. Instead drink warm water through the day. Pay attention to not eat too quickly and make sure to sit down in a calm setting when eating, no multitasking.

Practicing yoga postures such as Pavanamuktasana and Supta Baddha Konasana could aid in digestive health and help ease bloating. Aim for a routine consistent practice, which will help long-term without immediate pressures.

Try Triphala on a regular basis, especially before bedtime—take 1 teaspoon with warm water. It can tone your digestive tract over time, but start with small amount to see how your body responds.

Ensure you follow your body’s signals, and if symptoms persist, consult with a competent Ayurveda practitioner. While Ayurveda excels in supporting and promoting natural healing processes, more immediate medical assistance is essential if you notice alarming symptoms like unexplained weight loss.

HELLO SUNNY DANGI,

SYMPTOMS -stomach pain and bloating after eating -worse with heavy foods like nuts - feeling full quickly - early satiety - weight loss ~ 3.5 kg in one month - normal endoscopy, blood, and urine reports

LIKELY DOSHA INVOLVEMENT

VATA(apana vata)= bloating, gas, abdominal pain KAPHA(and low digestive fire)= fullness, heaviness, sluggish digestion VATA-PITTA possible digestive disturbance= unexplained eight loss despite normal appetite WEAK PACHAK PITTA+ SAMANA VATA= better with light food, worse with nuts

PROBABLE CONDITIONS

MANDAGNI= low digestive fire causing incomplete digestion

AMA= undigested toxins accumulating due to low digestive fire

GRAHANI DOSHA= weak functioning of the small intestine, poor absorption

AJEERNA= indigestion syndrome

VATA-KAPHAJA UDARA= abdominal discomfort with gas and heaviness due to vata-kapha imbalance

AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT

* TO BOOST DIGESTION(DEEPANA-PACHANA)

1) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with warm water before meals thrice daily

2) CHITRAKADI VATI= 1 tab before meals with lukewarm water

3) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals

* TO REMOVE AMA AND IMPROVE GUT FUNCTION

* FOR BLOATING/GAS

1) AJWAIN + SAINDHAVA + DRY GINGER POWDER= 1/4 tsp each before food with water

2) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp at night with warm water

IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST

- SHANKHA VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for pain and flatulence

- KUTAJARISHTA= 15 ml with water before meals

IF FEASIBLE GO FOR PANCHAKARMA -VIRECHANA -MATRA BASTI

MAKE THIS CUSTOM FORMULATION FOR DAILY INTAKE -TRIKATU CHURNA + HINGWASTAKA CHURNA + AJWAIN= equal parts take 1/4 tsp with warm water before meals

DIET -lighten digestive load, removes toxins, nourish tissues

GENRALLY -eat only when hungry -take warm, soft, soupy, moist foods(avoid dry/heavy) -sip warm water or cumin - fennel tea through the day - avoid cold water , smoothies, fried, dairy, meat, dry fruits, wheat, sugar

INCLUDE -khichdi(moong dal+rice+cumin+ginger) -takra (buttermilk) with roasted cumin + ajwain + rock salt after meals - rice gruel(yavagu)- easily digestible - cooked vegetables= bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pumpkin, carrots - spices= ginger, cumin, ajwain, black pepper, turmeric, hing

VATA-KAPHA SHAMAN CHIKITSA -use sesame oil for body massage -steam therapy post massage -regular bowel movement- if sluggish use TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at night with warm water

ASANA -vajrasana= 5 min after meals -pawanmuktasana - apanasana - setu bandhasana -trikonasana

PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana= 10 min - bhramari= 5 min - ujjayi- if anxiety, stress is high
