HELLO KISHOR,
You are experiencing symptoms like -chest and back discomfort, especially in the morning -stomach heaviness/fullness, as if gas is stuck -urge to pass stool but nothing comes out (incomplete evacuation) -bloating, gas, indigestion -recurring high bilirubin levels (1.5) -constant worry before eating(will I digest this or not) -history of kidney stones, digestion worse after that
WHAT’S GOIN ON? Based on Ayurveda, your body is producing toxins (ama) due to weak digestive fire (mandagni). This is causing gastric imbalance, liver overload, and pitta-vata aggravation.
You might be facing -liver sluggishness or minor inflammation- leading to fluctuating bilirubin -Irritable bowel like condition- with gas, discomfort, and disturbed bowel movement -psychosomatic stress- mental stress affecting digestion
TREATMENT GOALS -Strengthen digestive fire= so food digests well and doesn’t create Ama(toxin) -detox liver and intestines= reduce bilirubin naturally, improve bile flow -remove gas and bloating= regulate vata dosha, ensure complete bowel movement -calm the mind= reduce anxiety related to digestion -restore gut liver balance= maintain long term stability of liver, gut, and mind
INTERNAL MEDICATIONS
1) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp before dinner with warm water for 2 months =reduces acidity, balances liver and stomach fire
2) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 2 months =improves liver function, clears bilirubin
3) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at night with warm water for 3-6 months =regulates bowels, detoxifies
4) KUTKI CHURNA= 250 mg with honey twice daily after meals for 2 months =liver detox, bile regulator
5) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp before meals with warm water for 2 months =reduces gas and bloating
6) LIV 52 DS(himalaya)= 1 tab twice daily for 3 months =supports liver enzyme balance
7) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night for 2 months =reduces anxiety, promotes digestion
DIET SHOULD BE FOLLOWED -warm, light, fresh food -moong dal khichdi, lauki, tinda -jeera,ajwain,fennel,coriander in food -homemade buttermilk with roasted jeera -boiled vegetables, rice, green gram, old wheat -ghee in small quantity improves digestion if used right -herbal teas(fennel, coriander, cumin)
FOODS TO AVOID COMPLETELY -cold food or drinks -tea/coffee on an empty stomach -fried, stale, fermented or heavy foods -pakoras, samosa, etc -cheese, curd especially at night, red meat -long fasting, overeating, eating under stress -milk with salty or sour items causes toxins
YOGA AND PRANAYAM FOR GUT-LIVER-MIND BALANCE
YOGA ASANAS -Vajrasana= after food- improves digestion -pawanmuktasana= removes gas -bhujangasana= stimulates liver and digestion -trikonasana= liver and gut stretch -paschimottanasana= calms nervous system
PRANAYAM -Anulom Vilom= 5-10 min -sheetali/sheetkari= 5 min -bhramari= 5 min -kapalbhati= light version, 1 min to start
HOME REMEDIES

5) Turmeric + honey =1/2 tsp turmeric with honey once daily
6) Aloe Vera juice plain =15ml in morning supports liver
INVESTIGATIONS TO BE DONE -LFT= total/direct/indirect bilirubin -USG ABDOMEN= to rule out fatty liver, gallbladder issues -STOOL TEST= if chronic constipation or indigestion -H.PYLORI= if burning/stomach ulcer suspected -CBC, ESR, CRP= to check for chronic inflammation -THYROID = sometimes related to slow digestion
LIFESTYLE CHANGES -wake up early by 7 am- helps natural bowel reflex -eat meals on time, not late or skipped -chew food slowly and mindfully -avoid using phone/tv while eating -don’t lie down after meals walk or sit in vajrasana -keep 2-3 hours gap between dinner and sleep -use copper vessel water in morning -sleep by 10 pm- liver detox happens at night
-Your condition is not permenent or untreatable - it just needs time, patience, and consistency -don’t get anxious before eating- trust your digestion while you’re healing it -Mind-gut-liver are all connected- stress will always impact digestion, so keep calming the mind -ayurveda healing is deep, but slow= allow 2-3 months for genuine transformation
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

Your concerns indicate a potential imbalance in your digestive system, often related to a disrupted agni or digestive fire. This can result in symptoms like bloating, gastric issues, and discomfort. Your elevated bilirubin levels and history of liver treatment suggest the liver’s role, as it contributes significantly to digestion. Considering your kidney stone history and current digestive worries, addressing both liver function and digestive fire will be helpful.
Firstly, reinforcing your digestion with Ayurveda’s concepts of agni is crucial. Start with a simple morning routine—have a glass of warm water with a pinch of lemon and ginger every morning before consuming anything else. Ginger is known to kindle the digestive fire, while lemon purifies the liver.
For meals, eat light, easily digestible foods, focusing on steamed vegetables, dal, and rice. Avoid heavy, fried, or overly spicy meals which can aggravate your condition. Incorporate spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel in your cooking, as these aid in digestion and pacify any excess Pitta which can relate to liver issues. Also, use buttermilk in your meals; it supports digestion and soothes the stomach lining.
To help with your morning discomfort, try herbal teas made from mint or chamomile in the evenings. These can relax the digestive system overnight, fostering smoother mornings.
Stress can exacerbate digestive disorders, thus engaging in light yoga or meditation practices may align your body and mind better. Particularly pranayama, like deep breathing exercises, can reduce digestive tension and anxiety.
However, given the complexity and duration of your symptoms and fluctuating bilirubin levels, collaborating with your healthcare provider is essential. Regular checkups ensure any complications or additional treatments are promptly managed, and they can track your liver function over time.
Ensure these practices align with any prescribed medications or advice from your healthcare professionals.
The sensations of chest and stomach discomfort along with fullness could point to a Pitta imbalance, especially considering previous liver issues and anxiety about your digestion. Pitta imbalance often affects the liver and digestion due to its fiery nature. Let’s focus on restoring balance and enhancing your digestive fire, or agni.
Start by incorporating cooling, calming foods. Include more bitter and astringent foods like leafy greens and pomegranates; these can help balance Pitta. Eat smaller meals more frequently to prevent overloading the digestive system, which can cause that fullness you’re feeling.
To support your liver, try triphala: Take half a teaspoon mixed in warm water before bedtime. This traditional formulation aids in detoxifying the digestive system gently, without creating further imbalance. It can support regular bowel movements and overall digestion.
Addressing your anxiety around food and digestion could also be beneficial. Brahmi or Ashwagandha can help calm the mind. Steep Brahmi leaves in hot water for tea once daily. It’ll help de-stress and ease the mind, which is often beneficial for the gut as well.
Since you’ve mentioned fluctuating bilirubin levels and history with kidney stones, consistent professional monitoring is crucial. If your symptoms worsen or persist despite lifestyle adjustments, seek care from an Ayurvedic practitioner or medical professional. They can provide a more specific approach considering your full medical history.
Hydration is key, especially given your kidney history, but avoid ice-cold drinks as it may further dampen agni. Lukewarm water is preferable.
Implement daily routines around meals, sleep, and stress management. Such practices support metabolic harmony and contribute to healing over time.

From an Ayurvedic perspective, your symptoms point toward an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas, which can lead to Ajeerna (indigestion), Amlapitta (acid reflux/GERD), and Mandagni (weak digestive fire). The liver and gut connection is also key in Ayurveda.

1. Avipattikar Churna Dose: 1 teaspoon with warm water before meals, twice a day.
2.Arogyavardhini Vati Dose: 1 tablet after meals, twice a day.
3.Liv52 DS (Himalaya) Dose: 1 tablet after meals, twice a day.
4.Triphala Churna Dose: 1 teaspoon with warm water at bedtime.
5…Kamdudha Ras (with Mukta) (Optional) Dose: 1 tablet in the morning on an empty stomach with honey or cold milk (if acidity is high).
6.Liv52 DS (Himalaya) Use: Supports liver function, helps normalize bilirubin. Dose: 1 tablet twice a day after meals.
Diet Guidelines (Ahara):
Eat light, freshly cooked food — khichdi, moong dal soup, boiled veggies. Avoid spicy, oily, fermented, or reheated food. Drink jeera water, ajwain water, or coriander decoction for gas. Sip warm water through the day (not cold water). Avoid tea/coffee on empty stomach.
