hello sai Prasad,
Your symptoms bloating, acidity, constipation, feeling dull, sleepy, and unable to focus all point toward your digestive system being overloaded and tired. Over time, this leads to Ama (toxic undigested material) forming in your gut and blood. Since the liver processes all this, it gets sluggish that's how fatty liver develops.So your body’s not “lazy” it’s clogged. Imagine a stove that’s covered in oil and soot. It can’t burn cleanly that’s what’s happening to your digestion and energy system. Ayurveda helps by first clearing that soot (Ama), restarting the fire (Agni), and cleaning the channels (Srotas).
1. Internal Ayurvedic Medicines
1.Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water
Reduces acid reflux, improves liver and bowel movement
2.Triphala + Isabgol (equal mix) – 1 tsp with warm water at night
Relieves constipation, gently detoxifies gut
3.Arogyavardhini Vati – 2 tablets after meals, twice daily
Liver cleanser, improves fat metabolism
4.Punarnavadi Mandur – 1 tablet twice daily before meals
Reduces water retention, bloating, and helps the liver function
5.Guduchi Satva – 250 mg with warm water, twice daily
Boosts digestion, immunity, and clears brain fog
2. Diet Guidelines
Eat light, warm, fresh food only
No curd, fried food, bakery, heavy sweets, or cold drinks
Best choices: moong dal, rice, bottle gourd, carrots, jeera-ajwain soups
Morning detox drink: Jeera + ajwain + methi seed water
Liver-soothing drink: Boiled beetroot water or mint-lemon water mid-day
3. Lifestyle & Routine
Wake up by 6:30–7 AM, walk in sunlight for 20 mins
Eat breakfast by 9 AM, lunch by 1 PM, light dinner by 7:30 PM
Avoid lying down after food
Do deep breathing (pranayama) 10 minutes daily
Sleep by 10:30 PM, wake up without alarm (improves focus & alertness)
Suggested Tests (if not recently done)
Liver Function Test (LFT)
Fasting blood sugar & insulin
Lipid profile
Thyroid profile
Vitamin B12, D3
regards thank you DR.KARTHIKA

Addressing your symptoms seems to indicate a predominance of Kapha dosha, which might be causing imbalances in your digestive fire, or Agni, leading to symptoms like bloating and constipation. In Ayurveda, managing Agni and balancing doshas are crucial to restoring health. Taking into account your condition, here are some recommendations grounded in Ayurvedic principles.
Firstly, improving digestion is key. Start every morning with a cup of warm water to help stimulate Agni. Follow this with fresh ginger tea. Simply grate a small piece of fresh ginger, add it to hot water, steep for five minutes, and drink. This will help improve digestive fire and reduce bloating.
Diet adjustments are crucial for managing Kapha and digestive issues. Adopting a lighter diet rich in vegetables and warm foods can be beneficial. Favor foods like leafy greens, carrots, ginger, garlic, and turmeric. Avoid dairy, fried and oily items, and reduce intake of red meat and processed foods. Eating your largest meal at midday, when Agni is strongest, is advisable. Consuming small, frequent meals can also help manage reflux and bloating.
For constipation, take triphala churna, a traditional Ayurvedic formulation. Mix about a teaspoon with warm water before bedtime. The three fruits in triphala are known to promote digestive health and regulate bowel movements.
Consider practicing daily yoga and pranayama to assist with your overall well-being, help focus, and maintain energy levels. Simple poses like Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) and breathing exercises like Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) could invigorate and balance energy throughout the day.
Regarding the fatty liver, adding herbs like punarnava and kutki can support liver health. Consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner to get proper formulations and dosages. It's wise to avoid alcohol and excessive consumption of sugar and refined carbohydrates.
Lastly, ensure 7-8 hours of restful sleep is consistent, as sleep helps the body to rejuvenate effectively. Setting a regular time for sleeping and waking up can promote a balanced circadian rhythm, which aids concentration and energy levels. Pay attention to lifestyle habits, and consider consulting with a healthcare provider for routine check-ups for your liver condition. Severity of any symptoms or conditions should prompt immediate medical attention.

HELLO SAI,
YOUR SYMPTOMS= bloating, acid reflux, constipation, lethargy , inability to concentrate , fatty liver, mild overweight
AYURVEDIC VIEW
-these symptoms suggest a Kapha-pitta imbalance aggravated mandagni(low digestive fire) and formation of Ama( undigested toxins), leading to systemic imbalance and accumulation of medo dhatu(fat tissue) , especially in the liver.
BLOATING- causes due to improper digestion, accumulation of gases due to toxins= Annavaha srotodushti, vata imbalance
ACID RELUX- aggravated pitta with weak agni= Amlapitta
CONSTIPATION- dryness in colon, low fibre, dehydration, ama= apana vata vitiation
FATTY LIVER- over accumulation of meda(fat), impaired liver metabolism= yakritodar/medoroga
LETHARGY, BRAIN FOG- sluggish metabolism, blocked channels, weak agni= kapha dominance, ama in manovaha srotas
DIGESTION- THE ROOT OF ALL HEALTHH IN AYURVEDA
ayurveda teaches that "Roga sarve Api Mangagni"
=all diseases begin with impaired digestion
IN YOUR CASE
-weak agni->Ama formation-> Digestive issues-> Poor liver function-> systemic symptoms(lethargy , brain fog)
SO, primary goal is to
-reignite the digestive fire=agni deepana
-remove ama=detoxification
- support liver function= yakrit utterances
-balances doshas= especially kapha and pitta
AYURVEDIC TREATMENT
STEP 1= AGNI DEEPANA AND AMA PACHANA(kindling digestive fire and removing toxins)
1) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp before meals with warm water
=deepana and pachana- stimulates appetite, and digestion
2) AVIPPATIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp before meals twice daily with warm water
=reduces acid reflux, supports liver and gut
3) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals
=carminative, reduces bloating and supports gut motility
4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night
=gentle detoxifier, promotes regular bowel movements
These medicines act as natural pro kinetics, enhancing gut mobility without being harsh like synthetic laxatives.
STEP 2= LIVER CLEANSING AND MEDA REDUCTION
1) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals
=classical remedy for fatty liver, improves liver metabolism
2) TRIPHALA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals
= fat reducer
3) ROHITAKRISHTA + CIRRHONIL SYRUP= 30 ml each with water twice daily after meals
= both are best for fatty liver 100% result
4) GUDUCHICAPSULE= 1 cap twice daily in morning and night
= rasayana, support liver and immunity
THESE ADDRESS FATTY LIVER FROM THE ROOT LEVEL BY:-
-ehancing liver's detox capacity
- reducing excess fat tissue
-clearing blocked channels
STEP 3= REGULATING VATA(CONSTIPATION, SLEEPINESS)
-OIL MASSAGE with warm sesame oil daily before bath-pacifies vata
-basti using dashmoola kashaya or castor oil= excellent for chronic constipation, liver cleansing
