AVP Gulguluthikthaka Gritham is indeed traditionally used in Ayurveda for managing joint pain, inflammation, and stiffness, often linked with dosha imbalances involving Vata and Kapha. Its formulation aims to pacify these doshas while enhancing agni, which can contribute to improving joint issues over time. It combines herbs like Guggulu, which helps in drawing out toxins and improving circulation, with Tikta (bitter) herbs known for their anti-inflammatory properties.
To properly integrate AVP Gulguluthikthaka Gritham into your routine, it’s usually recommended to take it on an empty stomach in the morning. You would typically start with a small dose, about half to one teaspoon, followed by warm water. This helps the gritham (medicated ghee) to disperse and assimilate into your body. However, seeing results can vary significantly among individuals—some may notice changes within weeks, while for others it might take a couple of months.
Besides the gritham, focus on dietary and lifestyle changes to support its effects. A diet low in processed foods, rich in anti-inflammatory spices like turmeric and ginger, can be helpful. Since weather changes are affecting you, try incorporating warm foods and drinks to counteract the damp cold, which aggravates Vata and can worsen pain.
Regarding rituals, daily self-massage (abhyanga) using warm sesame oil can support joint health and circulation, and practicing gentle stretching or yoga tailored to joint health might aid in mobility and balance Vata.
If your pain persists or worsens despite these interventions, follow up with a healthcare professional, preferably one familiar with both Ayurvedic and conventional modalities, to reassess your condition and rule out any serious underlying issues.
