Planet Ayurveda FenuGym Capsule - #33466
I am really confused and kinda worried. A few months ago, I started experienceing some weight gain, and no matter how much I try to eat healthy or exercise, it just wouldn’t budge. A friend recommended the Planet Ayurveda FenuGym Capsule, saying it works wonders for weight management. I thought, why not give it a go, right? After researching it, I found that it helps with metabolism and appetite control, which sounds ideal for my situation. But here’s my issue: I’ve been taking the Planet Ayurveda FenuGym Capsule for about three weeks, and I feel like I’ve gained more weight! It’s super frustrating because I also started keeping track of my meals and activity. My digestion has improved, but I don't see the scale moving at all! Anyone else had a similar experience with this capsule? Is there something I’m missing here? I’m worried maybe I’m not taking it right or maybe with my body type, it’s not suitable? Also, how long should I give the Planet Ayurveda FenuGym Capsule before expecting results? Any insights or advice would be grately appreciated. Feeling kinda lost here!

Doctors' responses
Considering your experience with the Planet Ayurveda FenuGym Capsule, it’s important to keep in mind that each individual’s body reacts differently to supplements. This capsule, known for containing fenugreek and gymnema sylvestre, may support metabolism and curb excess appetite. Yet it’s not uncommon for results to vary based on one’s unique constitution (prakriti) and current dosha imbalance.
Given that you have noted some improvement in digestion—which could indicate that the capsule is working to enhance your digestive fire (agni), it might mean that something else is influencing your weight gain. An underlying factor can be your prakriti; if you naturally have a Kapha dominant constitution, your body can naturally hold onto weight, making it tougher to loose. A good first step would be ensuring you’re consuming the capsule with the right regimen—usually post meals is advisable, though adherence to instructions on the product packaging is vital.
Also, consider timing. Ayurvedic supplements sometimes take time to manifest results—typically more than three weeks. However, it’s usually sensible to allow about 6-8 weeks for your body to adapt. But, do keep monitoring your body’s response.
One thing that might be worth revisiting is your diet. Ayurveda emphasizes not just the quality of food but also meal timings (regular intervals) and types of foods aligning with your constitution. Incorporating warming spices like ginger or cayenne may enhance metabolism further. Additionally, lifestyle adjustments, including stress management (through yoga or pranayama), can play a role.
You might be benefiting from this supplement’s digestive support without seeing immediate weight loss. If after 8 weeks there’s no change, it could be time to reevaluate your strategy rather than letting frustration fester. If possible, consulting an Ayurvedic physician for a personalized assessment wouldn’t be a bad idea. They can offer specific guidance tailored to your body type and any deep-seated dosha imbalance.
