HELLO SHREEDAHR ,

It sounds like this slow digestion has been a long and stubborn companion for you six years is a long time to keep dealing with the same discomfort day after day. When the digestive fire (Agni) becomes weak (Mandagni), food doesn’t break down fully, which leaves behind undigested residue (Ama). Over time, this doesn’t just cause bloating or heaviness it also starts affecting your energy, mood, and even other organs.

Your use of Chiruvilwadi Kashaya, Balarishtam, and Ashwagandha is good, but here’s the thing while Balarishtam and Ashwagandha are nourishing, they are heavy in nature. When Agni is weak, heavy tonics can sometimes make digestion slower, unless the Agni is first strengthened. Ayurveda usually focuses on first “rekindling the digestive fire” before giving long-term tonics.

From an Ayurvedic perspective, your GERD also means that along with Mandagni, there’s a disturbance in Pitta (acidic heat) that’s rising upwards. This means medicines must be chosen carefully they should stimulate digestion without increasing acidity.

Treatment Plan

1. Ama Pachana & Agni Deepana (First 2–3 weeks)

Hingwashtak Churna – ½ teaspoon with warm water before meals, twice daily. Jeerakadyarishtam – 15 ml with equal warm water after meals, twice daily.

Continue Chiruvilwadi Kashaya before meals, but stop Balarishtam and Ashwagandha for now—these can be restarted once Agni improves.

2. After Agni Improves (From week 3 onwards)

Ashwagandha Churna or Balarishtam can be reintroduced for strength and nourishment. Add Amlapittahara Churna (½ teaspoon twice daily after meals) if acidity still persists.

3. Daily Practices Sip warm water through the day instead of cold or chilled drinks. Avoid reheated or leftover food as much as possible. Include ginger, cumin, and ajwain in cooking.

4. Investigations H. pylori test (if not already done). Liver function test (LFT).

If you follow this approach, the aim is to first wake up your digestive fire without irritating your stomach lining, and then slowly rebuild your strength. Over time, this should make both your digestion and GERD much more manageable.

You are not stuck with this forever your body has the capacity to heal, and we’ll work step-by-step to get you there.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika
