The symptoms you’re experiencing suggest a few key areas may need addressing, including digestive health, stress management, and possibly thyroid function. In Ayurveda, such symptoms often relate to imbalances in the Vata and Pitta doshas. The rumbling and diarrhea can indicate an overactive Vata, while the high pulse and stress may suggest Pitta disturbance.
Firstly, consider digestive health. Gut rumbling and morning diarrhea suggest irregular Agni or digestive fire, which can be balanced with dietary adjustments. Try incorporating cooked, warm foods that are easy on the digestion, like rice, oatmeal, and steamed vegetables. Avoid cold, raw foods, which can aggravate Vata.
Probiotics helping means your gut flora are supportive, so you might continue these if they bring relief, perhaps discussing with a healthcare provider first. Also, beverage choices matter - warm water with ginger in the morning could aid in settling digestive issues and bolstering digestion.
For stress management and fatigue, practices like yoga or meditation are beneficial. Pranayama breathing exercises help calm the mind and may regulate breath rate, stabilizing your heart rate. Routine is key in balancing Vata - try to sleep and wake at the same time.
Regarding potential iron deficiency, incorporate iron-rich foods like spinach, lentils, and seeds. For thyroid gland concerns, usually linked with fatigue and palpitations, further investigation by a healthcare provider could be vital, particularly for thyroid hormone levels.
For your pulse being consistently high, cardiovascular exercises should be approached cautiously, in consultation with a doctor, if your pulse often exceeds 100-120 BPM. Stress intensifiers like caffeine should be minimized.
Evaluating thyroid function and iron levels with a healthcare professional would provide more precise insights for tailored adjustments. Immediate consultation with a healthcare provider is recommended, particularly for thyroid concerns and high pulse, to assess possible interventions.
Rumbling in your intestines and the pattern of diarrhea, particularly when relieved by probiotics, suggests an imbalance in your digestive system, possibly linked to vata dosha disturbance. This can sometimes occur due to stress and digestive issues which align with what you described. The fatigue, iron deficiency, and thyroid issues also contribute to this vata imbalance, which can lead to such digestive disturbances, as well as irregular heartbeats and high pulse rate.
First, consider adopting a vata-pacifying diet. This includes warm, cooked, easily digestible foods like soups, stews, and steamed vegetables. Incorporate spices like ginger and cumin in your meals, which aid digestion and balance vata. Avoid cold, raw foods and those that are difficult to digest, as these can aggravate vata.
Incorporate a routine of daily abhyanga (oil massage) using warm sesame oil. This can calm vata, reduce stress, and promote better circulation. Ensure that you maintain regular sleep patterns, aiming for a consistent bedtime and wake-up schedule to stabilize your biological rhythms.
For your intestinal issues, consider taking trikatu churna prior meals – mix a quarter teaspoon with a small amount of honey. This formulation can enhance digestive fire (agni) and thereby harmonize intestinal function. Ashwagandha can also be beneficial for dealing with stress and fatigue due to its adaptogenic properties. Taking it in milk before bed can support your nervous system and promote rest.
Given your symptoms of palpitations and high pulse, which could be serious, it’s important to rule out anything that requires immediate medical attention. Make sure to check these with a physician. Always balance ayurvedic treatments while staying in touch with conventional medical advice.
