To address your concerns, it's essential to focus on the root causes that could be imbalancing your doshas and agni (digestive fire). In Ayurveda, constipation, weight management issues, bloating and burning sensations often indicate an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas, impacting your digestion. First, let's tackle the digestive issue. To strengthen agni, incorporate warm, cooked meals into your daily routine. Prefer foods that are sattvic and tridoshic balancing; things like khichdi, lightly spiced vegetable soups, and rice pudding can be very helpful. Avoid raw, cold and heavy foods like salads or processed snacks, as these can aggravate Vata and Pitta. Start your day with a glass of warm water infused with a few drops of lemon juice. This can stimulate digestive juices and facilitate a smoother bowel movement. Add a pinch of ginger or black salt for added effect. At meal times, sipping on a small cup of ginger tea may help in keeping the digestive fire robust. To deal with the stress and the frequent gas, practices like Pranayama, especially Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), and yoga asanas such as Pavanmuktasana (wind-relieving pose) may restore balance and help eliminate gas. For burning sensation, taking fresh aloe vera juice (2-3 tablespoons) on an empty stomach can soothe the gut lining. However, this should not be continued for a long duration, couple of weeks should suffice. Psyllium husk (Isabgol) taken at night with a warm glass of water aids in easing constipation while being gentle enough for regular use. Ensure you're adequately hydrated throughout the day, as sufficient water aids in digestion and helps to flush toxins. Finally, consultation with an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner might bring additional personalized insights, should these measures not completely address all your issues. They can evaluate dosha imbalances more comprehensively. But remember, achieving a balanced state takes time and consistent effort.

HELLO MANISHA, Symptoms= chronic constipation, incomplete bowel movements, gastric issues, irritable bowels, AND stress- your condition seems multi systemic but strongly rooted in gut imbalance, which is central in Ayurveda. In Ayurveda, your symptoms point toward an imbalanced vata and pitta dosha -Constipation and incomplete evacuation-> indicative of aggravated Vata dosha in colon. -Gas -> also vata, sometimes combined with pitta if there's burning or irritation. - stress-> vata and pitta both impact the nervous system, chronic stress dries out the system and weakens digestion. ROOT CAUSE IN AYURVEDA, Agni Mandya(weak digestive fire) + vata- vyatha(disturbed apana vata) - Due to poor dietary habits, irregular lifestyle, stress, and toxin buildup, your digestive fire is low leading to - incomplete digestion - accumulated toxins - blockage of channels - irritated skin and scalp due to poor liver and blood detox AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT 1) DIET MANAGEMENT FOOD TO AVOID -dry/cold food= raw salads, crackers, cold milk - pitta aggravating= tomatoes, fermented foods, spicy curries -vata aggravating= beans, fried food, stale flowers - gas causing= cauliflower, broccoli, potatoes, esp raw or uncooked FOODS TO INCLUDE -warm, soft, oily food= kichdi, soups, stewed fruits -healthy oils= cow ghee, sesame oil(internal and external body massage) - spices= cumin, coriander, fennel, ajwain - fruits= apples, papaya, pear, figs (soaked overnight) - liquids= warm water, herbal tea= cumin+coriander+ fennel tea GOALS OF FOOD SHOULD BE -rekindle digestive fire -avoid foods that aggravate vata/pitta - promote soft, easy bowel movement - reduce gas, bloating, and inflammation -nourish skin and hair DIET GUIDELINES -eat warm, moist, freshly cooked food= avoid raw/cold/ stale - no refined sugar, wheat, fermented, fried, or junk foods - cook with ghee and spices like cumin, fennel, ajwain - drink warm water only- no cold water or fridge drinks -eat 3 main meals, avoid snacking or overeating INTERNAL MEDICATIONS * FOR CONSTIPATION AND INCOMPLETE EVACUATION 1) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime(daily) 2) ISABGOL HUSK= 1 tsp with warm milk at night(alternate to triphala) 3) CASTOR OIL= 2 tsp once weekly with warm water at bedtime * FOR GAS, , GASTRIC UPSET 1) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water before meals twice daily 2) SHANKHA VATI= 1 tab after lunch and dinner FOR STRESS AND SLEEP 1) ASHWAGANDHA POWDER= 1 tsp with milk at bedtime 2) JATAMANSI CAPSULES= 1 cap at bedtime YOGA AND PRANAYAM -pawanmuktasana= gas release -malasana= squatting pose helps colon - vajrasana= after meals - paschimmotanasana= stretches colon PRANAYAM -Anulom Vilom= 5-10 min - Bhramari= 3-5 rounds - Sheetali= if skin inflammation HOME REMEDIES 1) NATURAL CONSTIPATION MIX -1 tsp triphala - 1 tsp ghee - 1 glass warm water =mix and drink before bed- cleanses colon gently KICHADI CLEANSE=5-7 DAYS recepie= moog dal+ rice + cumin + turmeric + ghee =balances all 3 doshas, heals gut, releievs constipation CCF TEA -1/2 tsp each of cumin, coriander, fennel seeds -boil in 3 cups water -> reduce to 1 cup -sip warm throughout the day ADVISED PANCHAKARMA -virechana -basti EXPECTED RESULTS 1 WEEK= regular bowel movements, lighter digestion 2-3 WEEKS= less gas/bloating 4-6 WEEKS= reduced stress, 2-3 MONTHS= restoration of gut health, skin balance, and mind calmess DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU DR.

which fruit juice is good for liver - #25143

Hannah

I am struggling a bit with my liver health lately, and I'm trying to figure out which fruit juice is good for liver support. This all started after I noticed some bloating and fatigue that wouldn’t go away, right? I did some tests, and my doctor mentioned my liver enzymes are slightly elevated. It freaked me out, honestly! I've been reading online, and there's sooo much conflicting information about which fruit juice is good for liver detox. Some say orange juice is good, while others recommend beet juice. Honestly, I’m a bit confused about which fruit juice is good for liver support and what I should integrate into my diet. I’m also a little worried about how to incorporate these juices since I’m not a huge fan of the taste of beets or grapefruit! Would drinking a lot of fruit juice really help or am I just wasting my time?! Any suggestions or personal experiences in dealing with liver health would be a lifesaver right now!

When it comes to supporting liver health in Ayurveda, the choice of fruit juice can be helpful, but it's important to find something, that aligns with your constitution and symptoms. Given your concerns with bloating and fatigue, let's look at a few options. Amla juice, also known as Indian Gooseberry juice, can be particularly beneficial for liver health. Amla is rich in antioxidants like vitamin C, which assist in detoxifying and rejuvenating liver function. Start with half a cup of diluted amla juice early in the morning. Drink this on an empty stomach and observe how your body reacts. Beet juice is another option that is often recommended for liver support in Ayurveda. Unfortunately, if you dislike the taste, you don't have to force it. You can actually try combining it with carrot juice and a bit of ginger to mitigate the taste while enhancing the benefits. Carrots are also great for liver health due to their cleansing properties. Lemon water is an excellent, simple option too. Not exactly a fruit juice, but it acts as a gentle detoxifying agent. Squeeze half a lemon in a glass of warm water and have that in the morning. For the small elevations in liver enzymes, these are usually a sign that the liver is under stress. It’s crucial to focus not only on juice but balance your diet as a whole. Avoid late-night eating; opt for more steamed veggies, lean proteins (if you're not vegetarian), and plenty of hydration — and ease off heavy, fried, or processed foods, as they stress the liver further. Also, incorporating some herbs like dandelion root or turmeric into your meals can provide hepatic support too, given their detoxifying ability. Just remember not overdo juice consumption, as excessive sugar can put a strain on the liver. 1-2 small glasses of juice a day is normally plenty. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consider reaching back to your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
