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.

HELLO KIRANMAYEE,

Resetting gut health naturally- especially with a focus on Ayurvedic management- is possible but requires a multi-pronged approach. since you are diabetic and 52 years old, care must b taken to avoid foods or remedies that could disrupt blood sugar balance.

You’re experiencing -bloating -indigestion -poor response to home cooked food -change in curd now sour - switch to desi cow milk

These point to possible ama(toxins) accumulation, agni(digestive fire) imbalance, and vata-pitta disturbance, common in mid-life and with diabetes

NATURAL AND AYURVEDIC APPROACH TO RESET GUT HEALTH

1) REKINDLE DIGESTIVE FIRE Support better digestion before fixing the microbiome

-Jeera-ajwain-sauf mic= dry roast and grind in equal parts. chew 1/2 tsp after meals

-Ginger infusion= boil water with fresh ginger slices and sip warm throughout the day

-Trikatu churna= take 1/4 tsp with honey before meals

2) VATA-PITTA BALANCING FOR BLOATING

-avoid cold, raw foods, prefer warm, cooked, spiced meals -use hing, cumin, and fennel in cooking -buttermilk- blend 1 part fresh curd with 3 parts water, churn well, add pinch of black salt, roasted jeera. drink post lunch

3) GUT HEALING FOODS -mild khichdi detox for 3-5 days. use moong dal + rice+cumin + ginger + turmeric -add ghee 1 tsp per meal to lubricate intestines and support gut lining -avoid heavy sour curd at night- use fresh curd at lunch only or switch to diluted buttermilk -fermented foods- light- kanji (fermented carrot drink), homemade pickled ginger

4) WHAT TO AVOID -sour/stale curd -refined sugars especially for diabetes -cold drinks, raw salads -excess lentils/beans without spices -wheat heavy diet if bloating is severe try millets like kodo, barnyard in moderation

5) AYURVEDIC MEDICATIONS

-Avipattikar churna= 1/2 tsp with warm water before meals for hyperacidity and indigestion

-Hingwastaka churna= 1/2 tsp with ghee after meals great for vata related bloating

-Triphala churna= 1 tsp with warm water before bed for gentle detox at night

6) LIFESTYLE SUPPORT -Daily oil massage- use warm coconut oil before bath -walk after meals= 20-25 minutes it will help digestion -reduce stress = bloating and gut health are tightly linked to nervous system

IMPORTANT NOTES -stick to desi cow milk only if it suits you and boil it properly -if Sour curd feels too heavy, discontinue for now. buttermilk Is easier on digestion -monitor blood sugar during any diet changes

THANK YOU

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.

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

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.

To reset your gut health naturally, a focused Ayurvedic approach can be beneficial. Bloating and indigestion often arise from an imbalance in Vata dosha or weak agni (digestive fire). Let’s explore some actionable steps grounded in Ayurveda:

First, consider your current diet and its compatibility with your dosha; for Vata imbalances, warm, moist, and easy-to-digest foods are key. Favor cooked grains like basmati rice and quinoa, sweet and juicy fruits, starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes, and well-cooked greens. With dairy, ensure it’s fresh and ideally consumed warm, like warm milk with a pinch of cinnamon and cardamom, which can calm Vata.

Sour curd can aggravate bloating and indigestion for some people. It might help to switch to buttermilk (takra) made by diluting yogurt with water and adding a pinch of cumin and rock salt. This combination is considered tridoshic, balancing for all body types, and helps digest food better.

Focusing on enhancing Agni is crucial. Consider drinking a cup of ginger tea before meals, as ginger is a natural digestive stimulant. Consistency here is essential, and fresh ginger can also be added to your cooking for the same effect.

Regular meal times and portion control also play a significant role. Eat at the same time each day and avoid overeating, which can overload the digestive system and lead to bloating. Aim for smaller, more frequent meals that allow the body to process food efficiently.

Lifestyle adjustments, like practicing yoga, can aid in digestion. Poses like Pawanmuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) or Marjariasana (Cat-Cow Pose) are gentle and can be incredibly effective for stimulating digestion and relieving bloating.

Lastly, ensure adequate hydration. Drink warm water throughout the day rather than cold, and add herbs like cumin, coriander, or fennel to water; this can further enhance digestion and detoxify.

If these symptoms persist despite these interventions, it would be best to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to identify any deeper imbalances or underlying issues.

To address bloating and indigestion from an Ayurvedic perspective, we need to look at your agni, which is your body’s digestive fire. When agni is impaired, it often leads to incomplete digestion and the formation of toxins, or ama. Even if you’re consuming what seems like healthy food, improper digestion can lead to issues like bloating.

First, let’s consider the milk and curd intake. Desi cow milk is generally easier to digest, but make sure the milk is boiled and consumed warm, preferably with a pinch of turmeric or ginger, to enhance digestion. If the curd is sour, it might exacerbate bloating. Instead, opt for fresh buttermilk spiced with a bit of cumin and a small piece of fresh ginger.

Meals should be regular and consistent. Try not to skip meals or eat at irregular times, as this can disturb your digestive rhythm. Ensure that your meals are balanced according to your dosha. Since you’re experiencing bloating and indigestion, these might be signs of vata imbalance. Favor foods that are warm, moist, and mildly spiced.

Incorporating fasting or light meals one day a week can help rest the digestive system and rekindle agni. Begin meals with a small piece of freshly grated ginger with a few drops of lime and a pinch of salt - this prepares your agni for digestion. Avoid reheated or excessively oily, spicy, and heavy foods.

Be cautious about consuming cold or fermented foods, as they can dampen agni, leading to further issues. You might consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for panchakarma—especially therapies like vamana or virechana, which can help cleanse and rejuvenate the digestive system.

If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s essential to consult a healthcare provider. Monitoring the response to dietary changes can guide further adjustments, ensuring a balanced approach to restoring gut health naturally.

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. Deepthi P
I am a practicing Ayurvedic physician with around 13 years now in this field—somewhere between hardcore clinical work and academic stuff too. My primary focus is Kaumarabhritya, which means I mostly work in Ayurvedic pediatrics, but I also treat adults across a pretty wide range of conditions. I’ve worked as an Assistant Professor in Ayurvedic colleges, mentored students, and collaborated with a few reputed institutions... not for name-dropping but just to say I’ve seen this system work in both classrooms and clinics. What really pulls me in is working with kids who have neurodevelopmental and behavioral challenges—things like autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, learning difficulties, and cerebral palsy. These are complicated conditions, and Ayurveda—when applied with care and consistency—can do more than people realize. I handle newborn care too, from basic immunity support to digestion or colic or sleep troubles, and that part of the job is oddly grounding. For adult patients, my work includes long-term management of chronic issues. I treat Vatavyadhi conditions (basically all the vata-based disorders), joint diseases like arthritis, neuromuscular stuff, skin problems—especially recurring ones like eczema, and lots of gut-related troubles, from IBS to grahani complaints. I don’t try to ‘fix’ everyone instantly or pretend like Ayurveda is magic—there’s real effort involved. I believe in deep diagnosis, using both classical methods and modern understanding of health behavior. Whether it’s through herbal protocols, diet correction, or lifestyle routines, I try to make each treatment plan doable—not just beautiful on paper. Results matter to people, and honestly they matter to me too. I still keep refining how I work with each prakriti, each family setup, each situation... because no two kids or adults are ever alike.

Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

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. Sarfaraj Mujawar
I am an Ayurvedic consultant with experience working in different setups, each teaching me something new about patient care. I worked for 1 year at Sanjeevini Hospital in Gokak, where I handled OPD consultations, follow-ups, and guided patients through both acute and chronic conditions. It was a busy environment, but it sharpened my ability to make quick yet accurate decisions while keeping treatments rooted in classical Ayurveda. After that, I spent 6 months at Vinayak Hospital in Gottigere, Bengaluru – there the case variety was huge, from lifestyle disorders and joint pain to skin and digestive issues. It helped me adapt treatments to very different patient needs, often combining Panchakarma, diet changes, and herbal medicines into practical plans. Now I’m running my own clinic in Hubballi, Karnataka. Here, I have more freedom to design fully personalized treatment plans and spend extra time understanding a patient’s prakruti, lifestyle, and health history before deciding on the line of management. My approach blends Ayurvedic diagnosis, safe herbal formulations, and where needed, detox or rejuvenation therapies. I focus a lot on patient education too – cause a treatment works best when the person understands why they’re following it. Whether it’s helping someone recover from a stubborn digestive issue, manage chronic joint pain, or improve overall wellness, my goal is always to address the root cause, not just the symptoms. Running my own practice also means building trust with patients and seeing their progress over time, which is the most rewarding part of the work for me.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
ChatGPT said: 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. Ayush Bansal
I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with 1 year of hands-on clinical experience, committed to providing effective and holistic healthcare solutions. I began my professional journey as a VOPD (Virtual Outpatient Department) doctor at Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Limited, where I served for 6 months. During this time, I gained valuable experience in patient assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning while managing a variety of acute and chronic health conditions through Ayurvedic principles. My role involved virtual consultations, customized treatment protocols, and continuous patient follow-ups, allowing me to sharpen my diagnostic and counseling skills in both preventive and curative aspects of Ayurveda. Following this, I worked as a Resident Doctor at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur, where I further strengthened my clinical expertise. Here, I was actively involved in the management of patients undergoing traditional Panchakarma therapies, Ayurvedic detoxification procedures, and personalized treatment regimens. My responsibilities included in-depth patient consultations, planning and executing Panchakarma therapies, and collaborating closely with senior Ayurvedic consultants to ensure safe and effective patient care. This role enhanced my understanding of classical Ayurvedic therapies, lifestyle modifications, and integrative approaches tailored to individual patient needs. With experience in both OPD and Panchakarma settings, I approach each patient with empathy, attentiveness, and a commitment to delivering authentic Ayurvedic care. My goal is to help patients achieve long-term wellness through natural healing methods rooted in traditional Ayurvedic knowledge.

Dr. Naainikka Mahesh Thopte
I am practicing since about 1 year and 8 months now—not a huge stretch maybe, but honestly feels like I've already walked through quite a mix of cases. And each one kinda shaped how I look at healing. Right from my first OPD posting, I got into hands-on mode with panchakarma-based treatments, and yeah, chronic issues like thyroid, joint stiffness, stones, even infertility cases—those started showing up more often than I thought. Some were complex, some unpredictable. But I stayed with it, trying to figure what exactly worked and when. I like taking time to actually hear the full picture from patients. Sometimes ppl just mention one thing, like back pain, but turns out they’re dealing with hormonal imbalances or digestion that’s all messed up too. That’s why I don’t rush—my approach's slow-ish, maybe, but thorough. I believe in tailoring the treatment, like really listening to what the body’s trynna say. And during this period I also kept showing up in field camps, hospital rotations, even got involved with elocution and poster presentations—those things helped build confidence outside the clinic too. I’m still figuring a few things out, I mean, learning doesn't stop right? But for now I’m grounded in what I know and curious about what I don’t. That balance keeps me goin'.
