HELLO,

MOST planet Ayurveda digestion packs usually include some combination of -digestion support capsules -triphala capsules -gandhak rasayana sometimes -pitta balance mahashanka vati or sanjivani vati dependig on the variant

1) DIGESTION SUPPORT CAPSULES DOSAGE = 1 cap twice daily -after meals about 20-30 min after food = supports digestive fire once digestion has begun, reduces bloating and heaviness

2) TRIPHALA CAPSULES DOSAGE= 1-2 cap at bedtime = 30 min before bed, on an empty stomach =encourages gentle overnight detoxification, regulates bowel movements, and reduces next day bloating

3) PITTA BALANCE IF INCLUDED DOSAGE= 1 cap once or twice daily after meals =just before meals 15 min before meals =enhances agni and reduces bloating, gas, variable hungger

BASED ON YOUR CONCERNS

BLOATING -before meals= mahashankha vati/sanjivani vati -after meals= digestion support -bedtime= triphala

VARIABLE APPETITE -pre meal herbs help stabilise appetite and support healthy digestion

IMPORTANT -These herbs are generally safe, but start with the lower end of the dosage if you’re sensitive -Drink warm water throughout the day; cold drinks worsen bloating according to Ayurveda

Hello I’m glad you’ve chosen the Planet Ayurveda Digestion Support Pack — it’s a well-balanced Ayurvedic combination that helps restore Agni (digestive fire), reduces bloating, and improves regularity.

✅The Digestion Support Pack works by:

Enhancing enzyme secretion and nutrient absorption Reducing gas, heaviness, and acidity Promoting a regular bowel pattern

✅ WHEN AND HOW TO TAKE YOUR DIGESTION SUPPORT PACK

(Assuming standard Planet Ayurveda pack components:- Digestion Support Capsules, Sanjivani Vati, Pitta Balance, and Mahashankh Vati)

1 Digestion Support Capsules. 1 capsule twice daily after food with warm water (Improves overall digestive strength and prevents gas/bloating)

2 Sanjivani Vati. 1 tablet twice daily before food (Detoxifies Ama and stimulates appetite)

3 Mahashankh Vati. 1 tablet twice daily after food (Reduces acidity, relieves belching and heaviness)

4 Pitta Balance. 1 capsule at night. after food (Balances excess Pitta, soothes burning or acid reflux)

✅ DIET & LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION ✅ To Include:

Warm, freshly cooked, easy-to-digest meals (khichdi, vegetable soups, rice with moong dal). Spices like cumin, coriander, fennel, ajwain, and a pinch of hing (asafoetida) in meals. Sip warm water or cumin-coriander-fennel (CCF) tea through the day. Small meals at regular times — don’t skip breakfast or delay lunch.

❌ Avoid

Cold drinks, curd at night, raw salads, and packaged/fermented food. Eating late at night or lying down soon after meals. Overeating or irregular meal timings.

✅ LIFESTYLE TIPS

Before meals: take a small slice of ginger with rock salt and lemon juice to stimulate Agni. After meals: walk for 5–10 minutes to aid digestion. Practice deep breathing or Anulom Vilom Pranayama daily — helps balance Vata and Pitta. Sleep early and avoid late-night snacking.

If bloating persists or if there is acid reflux, add Avipattikar Churna (½ tsp after meals) for short-term relief.

With consistent use and mindful eating, your digestion will gradually become stronger, bloating will subside, and your appetite will stabilize.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm regards, Dr. Snehal Vidhate

hello Ji,

Thank you for your message and for purchasing the Digestion Support Pack from Planet Ayurveda. I’ll guide you clearly on how and when to take them for best results. Since your main concern is bloating with a variable appetite, the focus will be to strengthen your digestive fire (Agni) and reduce gas formation.

Let’s go step by step.

1. Understanding your condition:

Bloating and fluctuating appetite indicate mild weakness in digestion what we call Mandagni in Ayurveda. This means your digestive fire is not consistent, so food doesn’t digest fully and gas or heaviness develops afterward. Our aim is to gently rekindle digestion and prevent fermentation of undigested food.

2.Internal medications:

Morning (empty stomach or before breakfast):

Sanjivani Vati – 1 tablet with warm water

After breakfast:

Digestion Support capsule – 1 capsule with warm water

Before lunch:

Mahashankh Vati – 1 tablet with a little warm water (helps reduce bloating and acidity)

After dinner:

Digestion Support capsule – 1 capsule with warm water

Continue this routine regularly for at least 4 weeks. Always take with warm water, never with cold or carbonated drinks.

3. Diet and Lifestyle Advice:

Take: Warm, cooked, light meals (rice, moong dal soup, vegetable stews) Add a few drops of ghee to food Drink small sips of warm water throughout the day

Avoid: Cold food or drinks, raw salads, and milkshakes Very oily or spicy food Long gaps between meals Gentle walks after meals can help reduce bloating naturally.

You should start noticing improvement in a few days — less gas, reduced heaviness, and more consistent appetite. Please don’t worry, this is a common issue and responds well to the combination you’ve chosen. Continue the medicines regularly and review after 4 weeks to adjust doses if needed.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

The timing of taking your Digestion Support Pack is quite crucial to enhancing their effectiveness in promoting digestive health. Each supplement in the pack may have different instructions, so it’s important to follow any specific guidelines provided by the manufacturer. However, from an Ayurvedic perspective, there are some general tips you can keep in mind to align with the principles of Ayurveda.

Generally, digestive supplements can be taken with or after meals to aid in digestion, unless otherwise specified. Taking them with food can help the herbs to integrate into the digestive process more efficiently. In the case of digestion support, typically you want to target the peak digestive times. The digestive fire, or ‘agni,’ is said to be strongest around noon - during lunch. Therefore, taking supplements just before or with your main meal can optimize their benefits.

If there are multiple supplements included in your pack, aim to space them out. For example, if you’ve got a capsule, you might take it after breakfast or lunch, and a powder could be consumed before dinner. It’s also worth mentioning to take them with warm water, which can help activate the digestion process and aids in assimilation.

Avoid taking your supplements too late at night or on an empty stomach (unless directed otherwise), as this can sometimes irritate the stomach. It’s also wise to maintain consistency, so try taking them at the same times each day to harmonize with your body’s rhythms.

As each individual is unique, in Ayurveda, specific recommendations may vary based on your dosha constitution or current imbalances. If you experience any discomfort or have specific health conditions, consulting with a knowledgeable Ayurvedic practitioner could provide more personalized advice.

Lastly, consider supporting your digestive health by drinking warm ginger tea and avoiding excessively cold and processed foods, which can hinder the digestive process. Adjusting the timing and method of how you take your supplements to your daily routine will boost their efficacy and help maintain balance and wellness.
