Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna - #31821

Daniel

I am feeling really overwhelmed lately. A few weeks ago, I was diagnosed with some mild digestive issues — bloating, occasional cramps, and irregularity. This stuff kinda came outta nowhere, right after I started a new job that’s got me super stressed. A friend suggested I try this herbal thing called Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna. He swears by it for gut health and detox, says it did wonders for him. I looked it up and found a lot of promising info but also some mixed reviews, and I dunno what to believe. Like, will it actually help with my digestive issues? And how does it work? I’m wondering if it will mix okay with my other supplements, I take vitamin D and some magnesium for stress. Also, I read it has some properties for liver health, is that true too? Anyone here tried Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna for digestion? Did it really work for you? I’m kinda anxious about adding something new into the mix, especially with how sensitive my belly is right now. Just looking for some real experiences before I dive in! Thanks, guys!

humyamalaki (Phyllanthus niruri) is a revered herb in Ayurveda, known for its: - Liver-protective (hepatoprotective) properties - Digestive fire stimulation (Deepana) - Cooling and detoxifying effects, especially for Pitta-related issues like bloating, acidity, and inflammation

Bhumyamalaki may help by: - Cooling excess Pitta (which flares under stress) - Stimulating sluggish Agni (digestive fire) without being harsh - Supporting liver function, which is often compromised during emotional stress

Things to Consider Before Starting 1. Sensitive Belly? Start Low - Begin with ¼ tsp once daily after meals with warm water - Observe for 3–5 days before increasing to ½–1 tsp twice daily - Avoid taking it on an empty stomach initially 2. Interactions with Vitamin D & Magnesium - No known direct interactions - But since Bhumyamalaki is cooling and mildly diuretic, monitor hydration and bowel regularity - Continue magnesium at night for stress relief—it complements Bhumyamalaki’s calming effect 3. Duration & Monitoring - Use for 2–6 weeks, then reassess - Track symptoms like bloating, stool consistency, and mood - If you notice dryness or fatigue, reduce dose or switch to a gentler liver tonic like Guduchi or Shatavari

I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

HELLO DANIEL,

What is Bhumyamalaki (Phyllanthus niruri) A traditional Ayurvedic herb used to support the liver, aid detoxification, and aid digestion. Usually prescribed for jaundice, slow digestion, or overall “pitta imbalance.” Marketed as powders (churna), capsules, or extracts.

What the research indicates

Liver protection: Clinical trials demonstrate it improves liver fibrosis in fatty liver disease, raises antioxidant levels, and promotes healing in mild alcoholic hepatitis.

Gastric protection: Animal research indicates it protects the lining of the stomach and diminishes inflammation.

Antioxidant effects: Decreases oxidative stress, which could potentially be beneficial to both gut and liver health.

Less well-proven benefits Direct benefit to bloating, cramps, and irregularity in humans is not well researched. Most evidence is indirect — through improved liver function, decreased inflammation, or enhanced gastric lining well-being.

Dosage and action may also depend on whether it’s in the form of raw powder, churna, or standardized extract.

How it may benefit your digestive symptoms May decrease inflammation in the lining of the gut and cramps. By enhancing liver function, it may aid bile flow and fat digestion and thus decrease bloating. Appetite and rhythm of digestion may improve according to some people. But — if your issues are more stress-related (IBS, food sensitivities), you’ll likely need additional lifestyle and dietary support too.

Safety and interactions Generally considered safe in recommended doses. Studies lasting weeks to a year didn’t show major side effects. Vitamin D and magnesium: No known negative interactions. In fact, since Bhumyamalaki supports the liver, it may even help nutrient metabolism. Potential mild side effects in sensitive individuals: loose stools, increased frequency, or original gastrointestinal upset. Ensure that you purchase from a good source to prevent contamination with heavy metals. Be cautious if you have liver disease

Common dosages Traditional churna use: 2–4 g (½–1 teaspoon) once or twice a day with warm water. Clinical trials: approximately 1–3 g daily standardized extracts, variable by condition.

Daily experiences Some find relief from bloating, easier digestion, and better regularity, particularly with a plain diet. Others experience no significant improvement or benefit at best. A few get temporary stomach discomfort if they begin with a dose that is too high.

Practical recommendations should you wish to experiment Begin low — perhaps ½ teaspoon once a day after meals. Monitor your symptoms for 3–6 weeks (bloating, cramps, stool changes, energy). Include stress management (breathing, sleep, light exercise) as part of your plan — as stress obviously set off your symptoms. In the event of worsening or ongoing problems, discontinue and consult a professional. Ideally, have a liver function test prior to starting if you are planning to take it in the long term.

Bhumyamalaki is relatively safe, with actual evidence for liver and antioxidant support, and some potential for gastrointestinal benefits. It may help your bloating and irregularity, but don’t anticipate a miracle solution. Pair it with reducing stress and eating an antigut diet for the most hope of improvement.

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

HELLO DANIEL,

1.Bhumyamalaki can help manage acidity by reducing gastric acid production and protecting the stomach lining. This may help with some of your cramping and discomfort.

2.The herb is believed to stimulate agni (digestive fire), which can lead to better digestion and metabolism. This may help relieve feelings of bloating and heaviness.

3. The churna has a laxative effect, which can improve bowel movements and address irregularity. However, this also means that a high dose can cause diarrhea.

4. The herb contains anti-inflammatory compounds that could help soothe inflammation in the digestive tract.

DOES IT SUPPORT LIVER HEALTH? Yes, Bhumyamalaki is most famous for its hepatoprotective (liver-protecting) properties. It is used to help with liver detoxification and improve overall function. Given the strong link between stress and digestive health, supporting your liver can have a positive domino effect on your entire system.

MIXING WITH OTHER SUPPLEMENTS (VITAMIN D AND MAGNESIUM) Interactions between herbal supplements and vitamin/mineral supplements are not always well-documented.

There are no widely reported interactions between Bhumyamalaki and vitamin D or magnesium, but this does not mean none exist.

POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS Overconsumption of Bhumyamalaki can cause digestive upset like diarrhea, so combining it with magnesium, which also has a laxative effect, could potentially increase this risk.

EXPERIENCES AND SAFETY CONCERNS As with most herbal and natural supplements, reviews vary. Some users report great results for digestion and detoxification, while others see no effect. Individual body constitution and the root cause of the issue can significantly impact outcomes.

TAKE CARE😊

KIND REGARDS, Dr.Isha Ashok Bhardwaj.

Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna, a renowned herbal preparation in Ayurveda, could indeed offer benefits for your digestive concerns, especially given your recent stress-induced discomfort. Bhumyamalaki, the active herb, is traditionally celebrated for aiding digestive system, supporting liver health, and promoting detoxification. In Ayurveda, it is often used to balance ‘pitta’ dosha and support ‘agni’ (digestive fire), which might help reduce symptoms like bloating and irregularity.

The herb works by soothing the gastrointestinal tract and enhancing bile flow, which could improve your digestion and ease the cramps you’re experiencing. Bhumyamalaki is also noted for its hepatoprotective properties; it supports liver function and can aid in the detox processes. However, as with any herbal supplement, it’s essential to listen to your body’s response, especially because your digestive system is sensitive right now.

Since Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna primarily addresses liver and digestive health, it’s generally well-tolerated with supplements like vitamin D and magnesium. Still, being cautious when combining supplements is wise. To start, consider a conservative dose, perhaps 1-2 grams mixed with warm water, taken once or twice daily after meals. Monitor how your body reacts over a week or two.

When introducing any new substance into your system, particularly with pre-existing sensitivities, I recommend consulting an Ayurvedic physician to tailor its use to your unique ‘prakriti’ (constitution). They can assess your overall health and guide dosage more precisely. Also, if your symptoms persist or worsen, or if you experience any adverse effects, it’s imperative to seek broader medical advice.

And yes, stress can weigh heavily on digestive function, so addressing this alongside taking the Churna could be even more beneficial. Mindful practices like deep breathing, yoga, or meditation could help reduce stress, enhancing both digestion and overall well-being.

Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna, derived from the herb Phyllanthus niruri, is indeed known in Ayurveda, particularly in the Siddha tradition, for its potential benefits in supporting digestive health and liver function. This herb is primarily praised for its ability to help balance pitta dosha, which when aggravated, can lead to issues like bloating, cramping, and irregularity. Your recent stress from starting a new job could be contributing to an imbalance in doshas, potentially affecting both your agni (digestive fire) and overall digestive process.

Regarding its use, Sadvaidya Bhumyamalaki Churna may aid in reducing inflammation and promoting proper bowel function, thanks to its cooling, bitterness, and slightly astringent nature. It acts as a mild detoxifying agent which could help in relieving some stress-related digestive complaints. As for liver health, yes, it’s also traditionally used to support liver detoxification and function, which indirectly promotes better digestion.

However, given your sensitivity and current intake of other supplements, proceed with caution. While generally considered safe, introducing any new remedy should be done gradually. I recommend starting with a small dose, like half a teaspoon mixed with warm water, preferably in the morning. It’s best to observe how your body reacts over a few days. It’s also prudent to maintain a gap of at least 1-2 hours between taking the churna and other supplements like vitamin D and magnesium, to avoid potential interactions.

Also, consider incorporating stress-reducing practices such as pranayama or gentle yoga, which are particularly effective in calming vata and supporting your digestive system. Keep yourself well hydrated and maintain a balanced diet rich in easily digestible foods to support your digestive fire.

Since each body is unique, and responses can vary, it’s wise to consult with a healthcare practitioner familiar with your medical history for personalized advice. If symptoms persist or worsen, further professional evaluation may be necessary to rule out any underlying conditions. Always prioritize safety and comfort before introducing new interventions into your routine.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Posam Siva Priyanka
I am working in the field of Ayurveda with special focus on surgical and para-surgical management, something that many people don’t usually expect Ayurveda to handle. Over the past 3 years and 7 months I gained clinical experience especially in anorectal disorders like piles, fissures and fistula, which often trouble patients silently until they become unbearable. These are conditions where Ayurveda offers very effective approaches, not only through medicines but also through para-surgical procedures. One such method is Ksharasutra therapy, a technique I practiced regularly, where medicated thread is used to treat fistula-in-ano and other chronic conditions. It is minimally invasive but require patience, regular follow up, and careful application. Similarly, I trained in Agnikarma, which uses controlled thermal cauterization for pain relief and management of small surgical conditions. Both of these methods are rooted in classical Ayurveda but highly relevant in modern surgical practice too. Alongside that, I also worked with various Panchakarma procedures—oleation, sudation, basti, virechana etc.—that support recovery, reduce inflammation and restore balance in patients undergoing surgical or para-surgical care. Many times, Panchakarma is not just therapy by itself but a preparatory or supportive process that makes outcomes more effective. Currently I am pursuing postgraduation in Shalya Tantra, the Ayurvedic branch of surgery. This allows me to deepen my understanding of both operative and para-operative techniques, while also staying rooted in the holistic principles of Ayurveda. It’s demanding, balancing study and practice, but it keeps me constantly improving. For me surgery in Ayurveda is not only about removing disease but about restoring function, reducing pain, and improving quality of life without unnecessary complications. Each patient is different, and the treatment plan always need adjustment—it is never copy paste medicine. That is something I keep learning again and agian.

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.
