Dr. Sanchi Damodhar
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with about 3 years of hands-on experience, mainly dealing with lifestyle disorders like PCOD, weight gain, diabetes, stress, and gut stuff—like bloating or weak digestion or just that feeling something’s off. I did my BAMS coz I was really drawn toward natural healing, not just the herbs part, but how everything connects—mind, food, sleep, mood... all of it. What I really try to focus on is not just giving medicine n sending people off. I like to understand what’s behind the symptoms... like why their metabolism’s slowed down or why they keep getting acidity despite eating less. That’s where my work with diet and mindset come in. I use Ayurvedic principles, yes, but I also mix it with small practical stuff—daily routines, sleep hygiene, stress release, food planning, whatever feels doable for that person. It’s not always about detoxes or strict regimens, though sometimes that helps too. Depends, really. I’ve seen good results when people actually get that they don’t need to do huge things. Just right guidance at the right time. I try to keep things light in consultation, make people feel heard, not rushed. I genuinely like when someone says “no one explained it to me like this before” — that feels nice. My whole approach is basically trying to make health feel natural again. Nothing fancy. Just rooted in the real Ayurvedic logic and a lot of listening. And yes, there’s trial and error sometimes, every case is different. But that’s what makes it kind of real. If you're dealing with any of those everyday-but-tiring health issues, I’ll do my best to figure it out with you—not just for now, but in a way that holds up longer term.

Hlw Kiranmayee ji, Digestive issues like bloating, indigestion, and gut imbalance—despite eating homemade food—can be rooted in deeper Agni (digestive fire) imbalances in Ayurveda. At age 52, Vata tends to dominate, which can aggravate digestion if not properly managed. Treatment: 1, Triphala Churna 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime 2, Hingwashtak Churna ½ tsp before meals with warm water or ghee 3. Avipattikar Churna 1 tsp before lunch/dinner 4. Kutajghan Vati 1 tab twice daily 5. Takra (buttermilk) with roasted jeera, rock salt, mint Daily after lunch Powerful gut-friendly probiotic 6. Guduchi (Giloy) powder ½ tsp with honey or warm water Diet Tips (Ahara): Avoid sour curd (especially at night) – switch to fresh buttermilk. Take light, warm, cooked meals – avoid raw salads at night. Use digestive spices: jeera, saunf, hing, ajwain, dry ginger. Avoid: cold foods, fried snacks, carbonated drinks, reheated food. Prefer: mung dal khichdi, cooked vegetables, rice, ghee, soups. Lifestyle & Routines (Vihara): Eat at fixed times, don’t skip meals. Morning warm water with lemon and a pinch of salt. Walk for 15–20 minutes after meals. Avoid daytime sleeping, especially after me Thank you!

I am Dr Misba Gaded and ya, I'm an Ayurvedic physician with a BAMS degree—Ayurveda isn’t just my profession, it kinda became the way I see health, honestly. I mainly focus on general wellness n women’s health.. both areas really close to me for different reasons. Over time, I’ve got used to seeing a wide range of stuff like skin problems (those chronic ones that keep bouncing back), obesity, digestion that just won’t stay calm, joint pain that lingers, and typical things like constant fatigue or that never-ending cough & mild fevers. Sometimes it's more about untangling what's not obvious, right? One of my deeper areas of interest is women’s wellness.. I deal a lot with hormonal mess-ups—like PCOS, irregular periods, ovarian cysts, or issues around garbhashaya (womb care). Most women I meet are juggling so much, and it's like, they forget their own balance in all that. I try to bring that back through a mix of Ayurvedic herbs, food tweaks, daily routine shifts and even simple yoga flows if they’re open to that. Not like some magic fix in a bottle kinda thing.. it’s more patient, more layered. Sometimes we go all classical—formulations from the granthas, tailor-made to the person's prakriti and vikruti. Other times it’s just about cleaning up gut stuff and giving digestion some peace. That helps a lot more than people expect. I don't usually rush through consults, coz I need to really listen—sometimes what a person’s not saying tells you more than what they are. Anyway, I’m not into overcomplicating treatment or going all flashy about Ayurveda. I like keeping it rooted. I just want to help people feel more “at ease” in their own body again, whether it’s through a ghee-prep or a lifestyle reset or calming an aggravated pitta that's burning them from inside out. That's kinda the space I work in. Every person comes in with their own story.. I just try to meet them where they are and walk with them from there.

Hi, Kiranmayee Your symptoms indicate Agni dushti, Ama formation, and Annavaha srotas vitiation, which is common in long-standing diabetes. Rx 1. Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp at bedtime with warm water 2. Hingwashtak Churna – ½ tsp before meals with warm water 3. Chandraprabha Vati – 1 tab BID (for diabetes + gut support) 4. Guduchi Churna – 3g in morning with lukewarm water (improves immunity + metabolism) Once stable, go for Virechana with Triphala Churna (1 tsp in warm water at bedtime for 5–7 days) Pathya-Apathya (Diet & Lifestyle): Do’s: • 3–4 L lukewarm water daily • Small, frequent meals • Cooked moong dal, gourds, ajwain water • Buttermilk (not curd) with hing and jeera • 30–45 min daily walk • Vajrasana, Pavanmuktasana, Apanasana • Pranayama: Nadi Shodhana, Agnisar Don’ts: • Tea, coffee, sour curd • Fried/junk/processed food • Maida, soft drinks, cold items • Raw salads at night • Overeating and late dinners

Hello, At this age, digestive enzyme production decrease and gut issues will develop. Fermented foods like sour curd may not be well tolerated if gut bacteria are out of balance. Curd at night may worsen bloating and indigestion due to slower night time digestion. 1. Dhanwantaram kashaya 15 ml + 45 ml lukewarm water twice daily before food. 2. Ashtachoornam 1 tsp with buttermilk at lunch time with food. 3. Triphala choornam 1 tsp at night with ghee. { this is good for both diabetic and gut issue } Convert the food preparation to ghee and natural coconut oil is good. Refined oil will also make problems. Chew food thoroughly. Walk for 10–15 mins after meals. Include more fruits and vegetables in your diet. Regular exercises and stress relief yogas will also help you to get rid of this condition.

Dr. Khushboo
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. Complementing this, I have also completed six months of clinical training in Ayurveda and Panchakarma, focusing on natural detoxification and rejuvenation therapies. During this time, I gained practical experience in classical Ayurvedic treatments, including Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara, and other Panchakarma modalities. I strongly believe in a patient-centric approach that blends the wisdom of Ayurveda with the clinical precision of modern medicine for optimal outcomes. Additionally, I hold certification in Garbha Sanskar, a specialized Ayurvedic discipline aimed at promoting holistic wellness during pregnancy. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey. Whether treating seasonal imbalances, supporting women’s health, or guiding patients through Panchakarma therapies, I am committed to delivering care that is rooted in tradition and guided by compassion.
