Malabar Dasamoolam Kashayam could indeed be a helpful addition for managing stress and fatigue if used properly. It’s known for its adaptogenic properties, particularly aiding in balancing aggravated Vata dosha, which often worsens with stress, irregular routines, and poor digestion. Since you are experiencing fatigue and digestive issues, addressing Vata imbalance might be beneficial.
Typically, the recommended dosage is around 15-25 ml, twice daily before meals. You can dilute it with an equal amount of warm water to help manage the taste, which, yes, can be quite bitter. Taking it on an empty stomach might maximize absorption, but if the taste is too strong, it’s okay to mix with a bit of honey for sweetness—just don’t overdo it, as excess sweet can affect your digestion.
If your digestive fire (Agni) feels weak, consider incorporating easily digestible foods in your diet, like warm soups or khichdi, avoiding heavy, processed foods. Make a consistent routine with regular meals, sleep, and breaks for your body to adapt to reduced stress levels. Include practices like deep breathing or meditation to help calm your mind—they support both the mind’s and body’s resilience over time.
Remember though, if your symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions. Sometimes urgent care is needed, and relying solely on Ayurveda could delay necessary treatment. Balance, consistency, and awareness will pave the way for recovery.
