Which tablet for improving gut health - #35018

Mahesh

I am recovering from high acidity in my stomach which was originally caused by H pyroli. I had taken a course of antibiotics for h pyproli and have been using ayurvedic medicine since then to recover. I am using Maharishi ayurveda Amlant tablets before meal. I tried Triphala at night for a few days and Maharshi ayurveda gut health tablet for a few days. Which is a better solution for my condition?

HELLO MAHESH,

You had H. pylori infection, treated with antibiotics . after that you developed gastritis and acidity - a very common aftermath because -antibiotics destroy not only H. pylori but also the good bacteria in the gut -this creates ama (toxins) and weakens the digestive fire -the stomach lining becomes thin and inflamed, leading to burning, bloating, acid reflux,nausea, heaviness and disturbed bowel habits -the imbalance is mainly in Pitta dosha with involvement of vata after antibiotic use

In Ayurveda, digestion is governed by digestive fire (agni) When agni is disturbed due to stress, wrong food, infection, or medicine the following happens -Pitta dosha increases- meaning too much acid and heat in the stomach -Kapha decreases- losing the protective llinng -The result=acid irritation, sour belching, heartburn, nausea, heaviness etc

If untreated this can lead to ulceration , irritable bowel, or chronic indigestion

TREATMENT GOALS -pacify pitta -heal mucosa -strengthen digestive fire -rebuild gut flora -prevent recurrence

INVESTIGATION -Urea breath test or stool antigen test -Upper GI endoscopy -CBC, LFT, Blood sugar -Stool test

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) MAHARISHI AYURVEDA AMANT TABLET - 1 tab twice daily before meals for 8 weeks =reduces acid, cools pitta, protects mucosa, relieves burning, and promotes digestion

2) AVIPATTTIKAR CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water before lunch and dinner for 4 weeks =natural antacid and laxative; balances excess pitta and relieves constipation and acid reflux

3) YASHTIMADHU CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime for 6 weeks =heals stomach lining, reduces inflammation, and acts like a natural coating over ulcers

4) KAMDUDHA RAS (with mukta shukti bhasma)= 125 mg tab once daily after meals with water for 6 weeks =strong anti pitta mineral formulation, neutralises acid and gives cooling effect

5) GUT HEALTH TABLET (maharishi ayurveda)= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 months =restores gut bacteria and improves post antibiotic digestion

DIET -soft, cooked, mildly spiced foods- rice, moong dal, ghee, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pumpkin -cow’s ghee= 1 tsp twice daily excellent for healing -coconut water, pomegranate, amla juice aloe vera juice= cooling -buttermilk with roasted cumin and rock salt after lunch- restores flora -warm milk with cardamom at night if no lactose intolerance -jeera, Dhaniya, fennel seeds- great for digestion

AVOID -spicy, fried, sour foods -pickels, vinegar, tamarind -tea, coffee, alcohol, smoking -processed foods, refined sugar -cold or stale food, cabonated drinks -long fasting or overeating -nightshiifts or late night meals

HOME REMEDIES -aloe vera gel 1 tbsp + amla juice 1 tbsp + water 1 cup= morning on empty stomach -> heals mucosa, balances acid -coconut water twice daily- reduces burning instantly -licorice tea= 1 tsp powder boiled in water, taken warm daily -coriander cumin fennel tea =soothes pitta and aids digestion -ghee + rice + moong dal khichdi- best Meal during recovery

YOGA ASANAS -vajrasana= aids digestion -pawanmuktasana= relieves gas -setu band hasana= improves digestion, reduces stres -shavasana= relaxes the system

PRANAYAM -Sheetali and sheetkari= cooling breath, pacify pitta -nadi sodhana= balances vata pitta -bhramari= calms anxiety and improve sleep

LIFESTYLE GUIDELINES -eat only when hungry, avoid eating out of boredom -sit calmly and eat- no phone or Tv while eating -avoid lying down immediately after food; sit or walk slowly for 10-15 minutes -maintain a regular sleep schedule 10-11 pm to 6 am -avoid anger, overwork, and heat exposure -keep bowel movement regular- no constipation

Your are in recovery phase- which means healing and balancing are very acheivable your focus should now be on restoring gut strength rather than just suppressing acid

If you follow this routine patiently for 3-4 months, your digestion will normalize , mucosa will heal and acid reflux recurrence will be minimal- naturally without long term dependency on medication

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

Hello Mahesh

I can understand your concern regarding rebuiding your gut health but dont worry we are here to help you out😊 And You’re absolutely right to focus on gut healing after H. pylori treatment, because even after the infection clears, the stomach lining remains weak for a few months — leading to acidity, indigestion, and irregular bowel patterns.

✅UNDERSTAND YOUT CURRENT GUT STAGE -

After antibiotic therapy for H. pylori, the following usually happens-

1. Pitta aggravation = hyperacidity, burning, heat in stomach. 2. Agni imbalance = weak digestion, gas, bloating, heaviness. 3. Microbiome depletion = antibiotics kill good gut bacteria. 4. Mucosal irritation = gut lining becomes inflamed and sensitive.

Ayurvedic approach focuses on Agnideepana (digestive restoration), Aam pachana (removing toxins), and Grahani poshana (gut strengthening).

✅YOUR CURRENT MEDICATION

✅ Maharishi Ayurveda Amlant 👉Neutralizes excess acid (Pitta shamaka). Heals gastric mucosa Relieves burning, nausea, belching. Supports long-term recovery of the stomach lining.

✔️Excellent for post-H. pylori recovery and acidity control.

✅ Triphala (at night)

Mild detoxifier and bowel regulator. Improves gut motility, balances Vata–Pitta.

Provides antioxidants and helps in regeneration of intestinal mucosa.

f you feel dryness or acidity worsening after Triphala, reduce the dose or mix with ghee.

✔️ Good for gut cleansing, but can be a bit harsh if stomach lining is still tender. Use only mild dose.

✅Maharishi Ayurveda Gut Health Tablet Balances Agni and supports healthy gut flora Improves digestion without increasing heat. Reduces bloating, gas, heaviness after meals. Restores intestinal strength (Grahani Shakti).

✔️ Gentle and more restorative than Triphala; very suitable after antibiotic treatment.

✅ Ideal Ayurvedic Combination Plan

Since your goal is healing the gut, not cleansing it, the best approach is gentle nourishment:

1 Amlant – 1-0-1 before food Neutralizes acid, protects mucosa 2 Gut Health Tablet – 1-0-1 after food Strengthens digestion and flora 3 (optional) Triphala – ½ tsp with ghee + warm water Mild detox & regular bowel( bed time) 4 Morning (empty stomach) 1 tsp Aloe Vera juice + 1 tsp Amla juice in water Cools and heals gut lining

✅DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

✅ Do’s

Eat freshly cooked, warm, light meals Include rice gruel, moong dal, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pomegranate, ghee. Use Jeera, Saunf, Dhaniya, Ajwain water after meals. Practice deep breathing & gentle yoga (Pavanmuktasana, Vajrasana after meals).

❌ Avoid

Excess citrus fruits, fried or spicy foods. Tea/coffee on empty stomach. Late-night meals or skipping meals.

✅For your current stage (post-H. pylori recovery), the best combination is 👉 Amlant (before meals) + Gut Health Tablet (after meals). ✔️Use Triphala occasionally and gently.

With this plan, your gut lining will start regenerating, acidity will settle, and your natural Agni will return to balance within 4–6 weeks.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

Maharishi Ayurveda Amlant Tablets (Taken before meal) Primarily Pitta-pacifying (anti-acidity, anti-inflammatory, gastro-protective). This is your most direct treatment for the high acidity and inflammation (gastritis) that often lingers after H. pylori, as it is marketed as a natural acid balancer and antacid. Taking it before a meal is a common approach for formulas designed to protect the stomach lining and neutralize or balance acid.

Triphala (Taken at night) Tridoshic balancer (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), but primarily known for gently cleansing the colon and promoting regular bowel movements. It works well for overall digestive health, detoxification, and relieving constipation, which can sometimes worsen acidity. Its mild laxative and prebiotic properties can help restore overall gut function, which is critical after an antibiotic course, but it is not the primary treatment for acute acidity.

Maharishi Ayurveda Gut Health Tablet (Likely Triphala-based or similar, taken at night) Focus on gut microbiome balance, detoxification, and strengthening digestion (Agni). Similar to Triphala, this product seems to focus on the long-term health of the digestive system, including balancing gut bacteria (acting as a prebiotic) and eliminating toxins (Ama). This is a great complement for post-antibiotic recovery.

Which is a Better Solution? For direct relief from high acidity: Amlant is the most targeted solution. It is designed to balance the excess Pitta (heat/acidity) and soothe the stomach lining, which is the immediate issue you are facing. Continuing this as prescribed is generally a good strategy for managing hyperacidity.

For long-term recovery and gut restoration (Post-H. pylori): Triphala or the Gut Health Tablet (which may contain Triphala) is highly beneficial.

The Gut Health Tablet appears to be specifically formulated to promote a healthy gut microbiome and detoxify, which is crucial after the antibiotics you took for H. pylori.

Triphala is a classic, effective herbal blend for detoxification, strengthening the digestive tract, and maintaining regular elimination.

The best approach is often a combination of treatments:

Amlant (for the symptom of high acidity)

Triphala or the Gut Health Tablet (for the long-term healing and rebuilding of the gut after the infection and antibiotics).

Since you tried both Triphala and the Gut Health Tablet for a few days, you need to consider their effects:

If the Gut Health Tablet felt better than Triphala (e.g., less gas, better sleep, better energy, or more gentle elimination), then you might prefer to stick with it as your evening, restorative dose.

If Triphala worked well to ensure a clean, regular bowel movement without causing any burning or irritation, it is an excellent and traditional choice for detoxifying the gut.

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.

Thanks for the detailed response, Dr. Anjali

Managing recovery from high acidity and the aftermath of an H. pylori infection requires a thoughtful approach. While you are using Amlant tablets to help with acidity before meals, incorporating Triphala may be beneficial, but not necessarily every night. Triphala, known for its balancing properties, supports healthy digestion and can help to enhance the digestive fire (agni). Take it at night, two hours after your meal, in the form of powder or tablets – start with half a teaspoon of powder mixed with warm water, or a single tablet, and see how your body responds over a few days.

On the other hand, Maharishi Ayurveda Gut Health tablets can complement this regimen. They focus on overall gut balance and could be used in conjunction with Amlant, especially when taken in the morning to start your day. Since your body is recovering, consistency matters more than volume.

A practical combination could be: Amlant before meals, Triphala at night intermittently – perhaps three to four times a week, and Gut Health tablets in the morning. This strategy allows your body to adjust, finding a rhythm without overwhelming your system.

However, diet and lifestyle are crucial. Avoid spicy foods, caffeine, smoking, and alcohol as they are known to aggravate acidity. Opt for fresh, well-cooked meals with cooling herbs like coriander and fennel. Stay hydrated with warm water throughout the day. Practices like yoga and pranayama can support reducing stress, which in turn harmonizes digestion.

Finally, monitor symptoms closely. If there’s no improvement, or if conditions worsen, it’s essential to connect with an Ayurvedic practitioner or health professional for a personalized consultation.

Thanks, Dr. Ayush. Would you also recommend using Liv 52 along with Amlant, Gut Health and Triphala (intermittently)?

And how many of the above tablets would you recommend for each instance?

For your situation, both Maharishi Ayurveda Amlant tablets and Triphala can be helpful, but their effects depend on your specific needs. Since you have been dealing with high acidity caused by H. pylori, focusing on balancing your agni (digestive fire) and pacifying pitta dosha, which governs digestion and metabolism, is crucial.

Amlant tablets are beneficial for reducing acidity and maintaining the balance of pitta in the stomach. This formulation usually contains ingredients like amla (Emblica officinalis) and mulethi (licorice), which are cooling and soothing for the digestive tract. Taking Amlant before meals helps prepare your stomach for food and prevent excess acid production.

On the other hand, Triphala is a general tonic for digestive health that can help smooth bowel movements and detoxify the intestinal system. However, it may not directly target acidity, but it is excellent for regularizing bowel movement and cleansing the gut over time. This could be beneficial if you’re facing constipation or uneven digestion patterns after antibiotics.

If your main concern is persistent acidity, continuing with Amlant as per your digestive response makes sense. Monitor your symptoms and ensure your diet aligns with a pitta-calming framework, which includes consuming more cooling, non-spicy, and easily digestible foods. Include more fibre by having vegetables and whole grains, and stay hydrated.

The Maharishi gut health tablet could be an alternative too, but its impacts depend on its exact composition and might be more suited for a broader range of digestive issues rather than just acidity.

Ultimately, it’s necessary to observe how your body responds—either Amlant for pitta stabilization or continue with Triphala for long-term gut health, while complementing it with a proper diet. If any severe symptoms persist or worsen, please seek further medical evaluation promptly.

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.

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.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

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. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.
