Agni Tea - #3681

I have been struggling with digestion for quite a while now. Most days, I feel bloated after eating, and my stomach feels heavy, like the food is just sitting there and not digesting properly. A friend of mine who’s into Ayurveda suggested I try something called agni tea to help improve my digestion. I don’t know much about it, so I thought I’d ask here for some advice. From what I’ve read online, agni tea is supposed to stimulate your digestive fire, or agni, which helps break down food better and absorb nutrients. Is that really how it works? I’ve noticed that certain foods, especially anything fried or spicy, make my bloating worse. Can agni tea help with those kinds of issues, or is it more for general digestion support? I’m curious if it can work for someone like me who has very sensitive digestion. One thing I’m not clear about is when to drink agni tea. Should it be taken before meals, after meals, or on an empty stomach in the morning? I’ve read conflicting advice on this, and I want to make sure I’m using it correctly. Can drinking agni tea at the wrong time actually make digestion worse instead of better? I’ve also been dealing with low energy throughout the day, especially after lunch. I get really sluggish and find it hard to focus. Can agni tea help with boosting energy levels by improving digestion, or is that unrelated? I’ve noticed that when my stomach feels off, my energy seems to dip too, so I wonder if they’re connected. Another question I have is about the ingredients. I know agni tea is usually made with things like ginger, cumin, and fennel, but are there different recipes for different kinds of digestion problems? For example, does it matter if you tend to feel cold all the time versus feeling overheated? I’d like to know if there are specific variations of agni tea for people with certain dosha imbalances, like vata or pitta. If anyone has experience with agni tea, I’d love to know how it worked for you. Did you notice improvements right away, or did it take some time? Also, are there any side effects I should be aware of? I’m worried that if I drink it too often, it might upset my stomach or cause heartburn. Finally, is it okay to make agni tea at home, or should I buy a pre-made version? If homemade is better, what’s the easiest recipe for beginners like me who don’t have a lot of spices at home? I want to keep it simple but effective.
