Considering your mother’s situation with hyperthyroidism and the absence of a gall bladder, it’s crucial to approach the use of any herbal formulations like bhringrajasva with caution. Bhringrajasva is primarily known for its benefits as a tonic, potentially supporting liver function and digestion, largely due to its ability to enhance digestive fire or agni. However, given her condition, it’s important to evaluate how this might interact with her specific health needs.
Hyperthyroidism can increase the body’s metabolic rate, affecting various systems differently. And the removal of the gall bladder means bile flow now directly comes from the liver into the intestine, which can change digestion dynamics. Although bhringrajasva could, theoretically, be beneficial for liver support, any effects on hormonal balance or digestion specific to her altered physiology should be evaluated.
To be safe, I recommend first consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can assess her unique dosha constitution and current state, alongside her conventional treatments. Meanwhile, encourage supportive dietary practices to aid digestion: smaller, regular meals potentially easy to digest, focus on warm, cooked foods rather than raw or fatty ones, which can be harder to digest without a gall bladder.
Avoid anything sour, fermented or overly spicy, as it might aggravate pitta imbalance associated with hyperthyroidism. Simple herbal teas like fennel or coriander can promote gentle digestion without over-stimulating pitta.
Overall, while bhringrajasva could potentially offer benefits, its use should be personalized to her specific health picture and ideally supervised by someone well-versed in her whole health narrative.
