Addressing multiple health issues, particularly those that arise post-menopause, requires a comprehensive approach. For the bone health issues, Ayurveda focuses on balancing the Vata dosha, which is primarily involved in conditions related to bones and joints. You might benefit from incorporating more Vata-pacifying foods into your diet, such as warm, cooked meals that are mildly spiced. Opt for foods like soups, stews, and porridges. Include healthy fats like ghee and sesame oil in moderation, which helps to lubricate joints and improve bone health.
Weight management can be challenging due to hormonal changes, especially after menopause. Triphala is an excellent Ayurvedic remedy for detoxification and can aid in weight management by improving digestion and metabolism. You can take 1 teaspoon of Triphala powder mixed with warm water at night before bedtime.
For muscle weakness, incorporating Ashwagandha can be helpful. It is known for its rejuvenating properties and can support muscle strength. A recommended dosage might be 1 teaspoon of Ashwagandha powder stirred into warm milk, consumed daily.
Your skin concerns may improve through external and internal Ayurvedic treatments. Consider using a herbal oil like Kumkumadi tailam for facial massage to enhance glow and health of your skin.
Engage in gentle exercise like yoga, which can greatly benefit bone health and muscle strength, focusing on poses that support the spine and help increase flexibility gradually.
For the spinal issues, ensure you’re sleeping on a firm mattress and sitting with appropriate back support. Gentle stretching exercises specifically for the neck and lower back could be beneficial, but they should be guided by a physical therapist to ensure safety.
If theres’ a concern about bone metastasis, it is crucial to consult with an oncologist or specialist for regular monitoring and appropriate treatment. Remember while Ayurveda can complement your treatment regimen, it should be part of a broader care plan in consultation with your healthcare providers.
HELLO TOSCA VIEGAS,
BONE WEAKNESS (osteoporosis)= after menopause, estrogen drops-> bones lose calcium-> they become thin, fragile, and painful
SPINAL ISSUES (L4-L5, C4-C5)= the cushioning discs in your spine are weaker-> causes stiffness, pain, and difficulty bending
MUSCLE WEAKNESS= without enough protein and strengthen activity, muscles shrink, making it hard to get up without support
WEIGHT GAIN (mainly belly)= metabolism slows after menopause-> fat shifts to the abdomen-> linked with inflammation
SKIN DARKENING/DULLNESS = weak digestion, stress, and hormonal changes-> skin loses glow
INFLAMMATION AND FEAR= chronic stress and poor gut health worsen inflamation. The fear of family history adds mental stress, which itself harms bones and hormones
IN AYURVEDA
VATA INCREASED= bone loss, weakness, dryness, pain
KAPHA INCREASED= belly fat, heavinesss, sluggishess
AGNI (digestive fire) low= poor nutrient absorption -> skin dullness, fatigue
TREATMENT GOALS -strengthen bones and joints -improve muscle tone and stamina -reduce belly fat and inflammation safely -restore skin glow and digestion -calm fear, improve sleep, balance hormones

5) ARJUNA POWDER= 1 tsp with warm water daily for 3 mnoths =supprots circulation, heart health, post menopausal balance
EXTERNAL TREATMENT
1) OIL MASSAGE with warm sesame oil daily at home =improves circulation, nourishes joints
2) followed by hot water shower
DIET -warm, soft, nourishing foods= khichdi, soups, stews -Calcium rich = sesame seeds, ragi, almonds(soaked), figs, milk with turmeric -Proteins= moong dal, panner, lentils, sprouts (lightly cooked) -spices to aid digestion = ginger, turmeric, cumin, coriander, ajwain -herbal teas= cumin-fennel-coriander water
AVOID -cold/raw salads, excess curd, fried food, white flour, sugar, processed foods -too much tea/coffee

INVESTIGATION NEEDED -Bone mineral density (DEXA scan) every 1 year -serum calcium, vitamin D, phosphorous -Thyroid function -Lipid profile -fasting blood sugar
This is not just about weight loss- your body is asking for strength, nourishment, and steady support. With Ayurveda, the path is slow but deep. Medicines will rebuild bone and muscle over months, diet will reduce belly fat and inflamation, therapies will ease pain and yoga breathing will restore calm
Balance is the goal, not extremes. Don’t starve yourself, don’t over-exercise. Gentle, consistent care will bring back glow, energy, and confidence
