AVP Sukumara Gritham - #31094
I am really confused and worried about my health right now. A month ago, I started feeling really sluggish and my digestion went totally haywire. It's like no matter what I eat, I feel bloated and uncomfortable. I tried changing my diet, focusing on more fruits and veggies, but still no luck. Then my friend mentioned using AVP Sukumara Gritham, saying it helped her with similar issues. I googled it and found a lot of positive stuff about how it’s supposed to balance the doshas and improve digestion, but I’m also kinda nervous about trying something new. I mean, I don’t even know if it's the right option for me. Also, I read that it’s great for boosting energy levels too, which I really need. But, my concern is that I tend to have really sensitive stomach, like, is AVP Sukumara Gritham safe for someone like me? I feel like I’ve tried everything — herbal teas, probiotics, you name it — and nothing's helping. Should I just try this out or what? I wonder if anyone else had a similar experience? Any guidance or personal stories would be super helpful! Just, like, what’s the deal with AVP Sukumara Gritham and how quickly does it usually work? Thanks in advance!

Doctors’ responses
AVP Sukumara Gritham is a medicated ghee known for its potential in addressing digestive issues, balancing doshas particularly vata and kapha and boosting energy levels. It’s primary function is to improve the digestive fire, or ‘agni’, and assist in the regulation of bowel movements. Its formulation includes herbs like fennel and licorice which help in soothing digestive issues and reducing bloating. Though generally considered safe, it’s important to ensure it’s suited for your specific constitution and current health condition.
Given your sensitive stomach, it’s crucial to start with a very low dose, of about half teaspoon mixed with warm water, taken first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Observe how your body responds for a few days. If you tolerate it well, you may gradually increase the amount to one teaspoon twice a day. The effectiveness can vary depending on individual’s condition, but typically some improvements are noted within 2-4 weeks.
It’s also beneficial to continue consuming warm, cooked meals, and avoid raw or cold foods that may be harder for your digestion to handle. You might consider reducing intake of very pungent or spicy foods, which can solely worsen digestive sensitivity.
If you haven’t already, I would recommend consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner who can accurately assess your dosha balance and give a comprehensive plan. Make sure your gastro issue doesn’t require immediate or conventional medical consultation, especially since you’ve been experiencing discomfort for an extended period.
Remember, while Sukumara Gritham can be a great aid, each body reacts differently. It’s always best to introduce new remedies gradually, and under advisement of a professional when dealing with persistent health issues.
