hello Biswajit baliarsingh, You’re 22, and when acne and scars persist despite trying various remedies, it’s a clear sign that the root cause lies deeper inside your system, not just on the surface. According to Ayurveda, your Rakta (blood), Rasa (plasma), and Pitta dosha are out of balance, leading to chronic inflammation, excess oil, clogged pores, and stubborn post-acne marks.

Even DIYs can sometimes worsen sensitive or inflamed skin if the internal heat (Pitta) and toxins (Ama) are not cleared. You don’t just need external creams you need internal blood purification, gut detox, and skin cell nourishment.

Internal Medicines (6–8 weeks):

Manjishtadi Kashayam – 15 ml with 45 ml warm water twice a day before meals Saribadyasava – 20 ml + 20 ml water after lunch and dinner Kaishor Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water (to clear acidity and bowels) Nimbadi Churna – ½ tsp daily with warm water for deep blood cleansing

External : Kumkumadi Taila – apply 3 drops at night with a gentle massage, wash off after 1 hour Multani Mitti + Rosewater + Sandalwood powder – apply 3 times/week for oil balance and cooling Fresh Aloe vera gel (raw) – apply in morning, 15 mins before face wash Steam with Neem leaves once a week to open and clean pores

Diet & Daily Routine: Avoid: Spicy, fried, sour foods, sugar, milk, paneer, curd, cheese, chocolate, and junk food Eat: Warm, fresh home-cooked food. Include lauki, moong dal, beetroot, neem, turmeric Drink 1 tsp of turmeric powder + pinch of black pepper in warm water daily Soak 5 almonds + 5 raisins + 2 dates overnight – eat in the morning Sleep before 11 PM and get minimum 7 hrs Never skip meals, especially breakfast Wash face 2x/day with a mild herbal cleanser (neem, tulsi, or licorice-based) Practice Sheetali and Bhramari pranayama in morning to cool mind and body Drink plenty of warm water; avoid ice-cold drinks

Investigations (if not done recently): Vitamin D3 Vitamin B12 Serum Ferritin Hormonal Profile (FSH, LH, DHEAS, Testosterone) Blood sugar fasting/postprandial CBC

With consistency, your acne and scars can be healed from the inside out. Ayurveda doesn’t just suppress the pimples it corrects your gut, hormones, blood, and skin gently and permanently.

If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, Regards, Dr. Karthika

HELLO BISWAJIT,

Snoring after mild naps or rest, especially if it’s been ongoing for years and worsening, often points to an underlying airway obstruction or vibration in relaxed throat issues. Since you’ve tried exercises, yoga and position changes without improvement, a more comprehensive approach is needed.

LIKELY CAUSES -airway obstruction (eg deviated nasal septum, enlarged adenoids, or soft palate issues) -Overweight or excess Kapha dosha - accumulation in head and neck area -Nasal congestion or post nasal drip -Alcohol intake or late heavy dinners (kapha aggravating habits) -sleeping on back increases tongue and soft palate collapse

HERBAL REMEDIES

1) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at night with warm water =detoxifies gut, balances kapha

2) SHITOPALADI CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with honey twice daily =clears respiratory blockages

3) YASHTIMADHU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with honey twice daily =soothing for throat issues

4) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab at bedtime =mild stress/anxiety may be causing tension or sleep issues

NASYA(nasal oil drops) Administering medicated oils in nostrils helps reduce snoring by clearing the nasal passage and reducing throat dryness

SHAD BINDU TAILA =2-3 drops in each nostrils every morning on an empty stomach =warm slightly and lie back with head tilted, inhale deeply do this regularly for 15-30 days

DIET ADVICES(kapha pacifying diet) -avoid heavy, cold, oily, and dairy based foods at night -stop eating 2-3 hours before sleeping -avoid curd, banana, and milk at night (increase mucus) -use warm water for drinking and during meals -take turmeric milk in small quantity if throat feels irritated

LIFESTYLE RECOMMENDATIONS -Weight management if overweight even mild weight loss helps reduce snoring -practice Jala beti-nasal cleansing with saline water -pranayam= bhramari-tones throat muscles -kapalbhati- clears sinus pathways -avoid alcohol, smoking, sedatives

WHEN TO SEE EMERGENCY CARE -sleep apnea symptoms = choking/gasping during sleep, daytime fatigue, poor concentration -ENT evaluation may be needed to rule out -nasal polyps -enlarged tonsils/adenoids -deviated septum -sleep apnea

Since it’s been 3+ years and worsening , it’s wise to combine ayurvedic therapies with ENT evaluation. This ensures no structural issue is being missed. Ayurveda can be very effective if adhered to consistently for at least 30-45 days

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

Generally snoring happens in obese persons or with some nasal issues. People who finds difficulty in breathing through nose while sleeping will compensate with oral breathing and results in snoring. It can be b’coz of dns or dryness of nose. You have to find out if any such issues. You can try nasal drops ANU TAILA 2 DROPS IN EACH NOSTRIL TWICE A DAY

HELLO BISWAJIT,

Snoring happens when the air dosen’t flow freely through your nose or throat during sleep.This causes the tissues in your throat to vibrate, making a hoarse or harsh sound- that’s the snore.

Your case seems to involve -Nasal or throat blockages - even small ones can cause big sounds -Possibly soft tissues in your throat relaxing too much -A kapha type constitution (ayurvedicaly speaking, kapha is heavy, sticky, cool- it tends to block passages) -maybe slight weight gain, poor digestion , or improper sleep habits

The fact that it happens even during naps shows that your airway closes too easily, even with mild rest- this can be worsened by certain foods, weather, posture or internal imbalances.

TREATMENT GOAL -open up nasal and throat passages -balance Kapha dosha-reduce stickiness, heaviness -improves digestion-clear toxins - strengthen airway muscles -create a restful sleep without obstruction

TREATMENT

1) NASYA= instill 2 drops of ANU TAILA in each nostril daily morning empty stomach =clears sinuses, opens nasal passages

2) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with honey before meals twice daily =improves digestion, reduces kapha

3) VYOSHADI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals =breaks phlegm, clears throat

4) SHITOPALADI CHURNA + YASHTI MADHU CHURNA= 1 tsp with honey twice daily after meals =soothes airways, reduce inflamamtion

5) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals if swelling in neck area =reduces gland swelling, lymph congestion

6) SARAWASATARISHTA= 20 ml with water at bedtime =helps with deep , healthy sleep

DIET TO FOLLOW

FOODS TO AVOID(these increase kapha and worsen snoring) -milk, curd, cheese at night -fried and oily food -heavy, sugary food-sweets, pastries -cold drinks, ice creams -overeating or late night dinners

FOODS TO PREFER -warm water with ginger or tulsi -light soups-moong dal, vegetables -steamed vegetables -old rice, barley, millets -herbal teas-like cinnamon, tulsi,ginger -light dinner by 7-8 pm

YOGA AND PRANAYAM

YOGA POSES(to open airways, reduce fat and tone muscles) -Simhasana= strengthens throat and tongue -Bhujangasana= opens chest and lungs -Sarvangasana= improves sinus drainage -Matsyasana= opens throat and chest

PRANAYAM -Bhramari= relieves snoring by strengthening throat muscles -Ujjayi= narrows the throat slightly and increases control -Kapalbhati= reduces fat, clears toxins -Nadi sodhana= balances breath, clears blockages

Practice these for 15-30 minutes daily

SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES

1) STEAM INHALATION with eucalyptus or tulsi leaves- opens nasal passages

2) Gargle with warm salt water or turmeric water before bed

3) Drink turmeric milk with pinch of dry ginger

4) Use wedge pillow to raise your upper body while sleeping

5) Apply cow ghee in nostrils at bedtime if dryness is an issue(after steaming)

Since your snoring is out and worsening ENT EVALUATION= rule out nasal polyp, deviated septum, tonsil /adenoid enlargement

SLEEP STUDY(polysomnography)= to rule out sleep apnea

THYROID PROFILE= hypothyroidism can cause tissue swelling and snoring

Even slight overweight can narrow your airways

LIFESTYLE CHANGES- VERY IMPORTANT -sleep on your side, not on your back -keep your bedroom free from dust and allergens -maintain a regular sleep schedule -avoid alcohol or sedatives before bedtime -don’t eat within 2 hours of going to bed - do not oversleep or nap too much during the day -try to loose a few kg if you’re slightly overweight

You’re not alone- snoring is common, but not normal, especially if it disturbs others or your own sleep. You’ve already taken good steps(yoga, sleeping positions), now combining that with above said instructions and remedies and possibly an ENT checkup you can get real relief

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Snoring, especially after a mild nap or resting, can often be linked to underlying imbalances in the body’s doshas or lifestyle factors. In Ayurveda, it’s typically associated with Kapha dosha accumulation leading to blockages in the respiratory system. Let’s look into some solutions that may help.

Firstly, it’s crucial to keep your nasal passages clear. You can use a neti pot for nasal irrigation or do steam inhalation with a few drops of eucalyptus oil. This will help to clear out any Kapha accumulation in the respiratory tract. Perform this either in the morning or evening before bed.

Secondly, dietary adjustments are recommended. Try to avoid dairy products, fried foods, and heavy meals in the evening as they can increase Kapha and lead to mucus build-up. Opt for lighter dinners with warming spices like ginger, black pepper, and turmeric to enhance your digestive fire (agni).

Moreover, incorporating Ayurvedic herbs that can balance Kapha may be beneficial. Trikatu, a combination of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper, can be taken to improve digestion and reduce mucus. Consider taking it as a supplement or in your meals if you can.

In terms of lifestyle, keeping your head slightly elevated while sleeping can prevent your airways from becoming blocked. Use additional pillows, but make sure they’re comfy enough to not strain your neck.

Additionally, practice Pranayama techniques like Anulom Vilom or Bhastrika regularly. They will help improve your lung capacity and maintain the balance of Prana Vayu - the vital breath.

Finally, weight management is vital, opt for regular physical activities like brisk walking or yoga, which also aids in keeping the Kapha in balance.

If your symptoms persist or worsen, it’s wise to seek consultation with a specialized Ayurvedic practitioner or a healthcare provider. Continued snoring can sometimes hint at underlying health issues like sleep apnea, which requires professional attention.

Snoring can sometimes be linked to imbalances in the doshas, particularly Kapha dosha, as it can lead to increased mucus production and obstruction of airways. It may also relate to Vata imbalances disrupting the normal flow of breath. Addressing these imbalances through specific lifestyle changes and herbal formulations might be helpful.

Focus on agni (digestive fire) by incorporating a light, easily digestible diet. Avoid heavy, dairy-rich, or sugary foods in the evening which can aggravate Kapha. Consider drinking warm herbal teas made with ginger, turmeric, or black pepper to stimulate digestion. Trikatu powder, a blend of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper, is effective in balancing Kapha and might be considered before meals.

Nasya therapy may also benefit you—this involves applying warm sesame oil or Anu tailam into the nostrils, typically in the morning, to lubricate and open the nasal passages. Carefully follow guidance on proper technique, as improper application can cause irritation.

Support these practices with pranayama such as Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) to balance Vata and Kapha. Practicing this in the morning helps regulate the flow of breath and ease snoring.

Keep your sleep environment conducive by elevating your head with an extra pillow to open airways. Also avoid alcohol and heavy meals late at night. If there’s obstruction beyond habitual snoring, medical evaluation is advised to rule out conditions like sleep apnea.

Continuously observe your symptoms, and adjust based on improvement or professional advice. Be patient, as these changes require consistent practice to manifest results.

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.
