Hello I understand your concern regarding high cholesterol levels — it’s a very common condition today due to dietary habits, stress, and reduced physical activity. But don’t worry we are here to help you out😊

✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION

1. Arogyavardhini Vati – 1-0-1 twice daily after food with warm water. (Detoxifies liver, improves metabolism, and regulates lipid profile.)

2. Guggulutiktaka Ghritha – 1 tsp twice daily before meals with warm water. ( Balances Kapha and Meda, helps in reducing LDL and triglycerides.)

3. Medohar Guggul – 2-0-2 after food ( Specifically acts on fat tissue to burn excess cholesterol naturally.)

4. Punarnavadi Kashayam – 2 tablets twice daily after food ( Supports kidney and liver functions, reduces water retention and heaviness.)

✅ DIET MODIFICATION

✅Include Warm, freshly prepared, light and easily digestible food. Barley (Yava), green gram (Moong), red rice, and oats. Fresh fruits like apple, papaya, pomegranate, guava. Vegetables like bottle gourd, ridge gourd, bitter gourd, ash gourd, spinach. Use cow ghee or mustard oil in small quantity instead of refined oils. Garlic, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and cinnamon – help metabolize fats. Green tea or herbal teas like Triphala tea or Arjun tea daily. Drink warm water throughout the day to clear Ama.

❌Avoid: Deep-fried, oily, and processed food. Cold drinks, sweets, bakery items, cheese, butter, red meat. Daytime sleeping and late-night eating. Excess salt and sugar intake.

✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Perform Brisk walking or Surya Namaskar 30 minutes daily. Practice Pranayama – especially Anulom Vilom and Bhramari for stress control. Abhyanga (Oil massage) once or twice a week with sesame oil to reduce Kapha and stiffness. Avoid stress and anger, as they directly impact cardiac health. Maintain regular sleep schedule (early to bed, early to rise).

✅ HOME REMEDIES

1. Garlic (Lahsun): 1-2 cloves daily in morning on empty stomach helps lower cholesterol.

2. Triphala Powder: 1 tsp at bedtime with lukewarm water – detoxifies liver and intestines.

3. Fenugreek (Methi) Seeds: Soak overnight, drink water and chew seeds next morning.

4. Cinnamon and Honey Mix: ½ tsp cinnamon + 1 tsp honey in warm water every morning.

Your condition is manageable naturally through Ayurvedic detoxification, fat metabolism regulation, and disciplined diet.

Within 3–4 months of regular use of herbs, lifestyle corrections, and stress control, you’ll notice improvement in energy, digestion, and lipid profile.

With consistent Ayurvedic care, it’s completely possible to normalize cholesterol and strengthen your heart naturally.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm regards, Dr. Snehal Vidhate

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. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am currently serving as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital, Nalgonda, where I specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various ano-rectal disorders. My clinical focus lies in treating conditions such as piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), rectal polyps, and pilonidal sinus using time-tested Ayurvedic approaches like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other para-surgical procedures outlined in classical texts. With a deep commitment to patient care, I emphasize a holistic treatment protocol that combines precise surgical techniques with Ayurvedic formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence and promote natural healing. I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief. Working at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital has provided me with the opportunity to handle a wide range of surgical and post-operative cases. My approach is rooted in classical Shalya Tantra, enhanced by modern diagnostic insights. I stay updated with advancements in Ayurvedic surgery while adhering to evidence-based practices to ensure safety and efficacy. Beyond clinical practice, I am also committed to raising awareness about Ayurvedic proctology and promoting non-invasive treatments for conditions often mismanaged or overtreated by modern surgical approaches. I strive to make Ayurvedic surgical care accessible, effective, and aligned with the needs of today’s patients, while preserving the essence of our traditional healing system. Through continuous learning and compassionate practice, I aim to offer every patient a respectful, informed, and outcome-driven experience rooted in Ayurveda.

HELLO,

Based on your details provided

your body is producing or retaining too many unhealthy fats (LDL, VLDL, triglycerides) and not enough healthy fats 9HDL) These extra fats circulate in the blood and slowly get deposited I your arteries- making them narrow and stiff

This can lead to -high blood pressure -fatty liver -heart problems -obesity, fatigue, and sluggish metabolism

In Ayurveda, this condition is mainly due to -Kapha dosha aggravation= causes heaviness, sluggish digestion, fat accumulation -Ama formation (undigested toxic waste)-> blocks channels -Weak meda dhatus agni -> improper fat metabolism

Thus, it’s a kapha- meda pradoshaja vyadhi (disease of fat tissue due to Kapha imbalance)

TREATMENT GOALS -remove ama(toxins) from the system -balance kapha dosha -improper meda dhatus agni (fat metabolism) -cleanse channels (srotas Shodhana) -protect heart and liver -rejuvinates tissue to prevent recurrence

INTERNAL TREATMENT

1) TRIPHALA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months =burns excess fat, detoxifies channels, improves digestion

2) MEDOHARA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months =specifically reduces meda (fat tissues), balances kapha

3) ARJUNA KSHEER PAK (Arjuna powder boiled in milk)= 100 ml once daily in morning for 3 months =strengthens heart, lowers LDL, acts as natural strain

4) PUNARNAVA MANDUR= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 2 months =improves liver metabolism and removes water retention

5) LASUNADI VATI= 2 tab morning empty stomach =lowers LDL and triglycerides naturally

6) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals for 2 months =enhances digestion, burns fat, removes ama

7) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime =regulates bowel, detoxifies, and balances metabolism

HOME REMEDIES

1) GARLIC -eat 1-2 raw cloves daily morning- reduces LDL and tryglycerides

2) FENUGREEK -soak 1 tsp seeds overnight; drink water and chew seeds in morning. Helps regulates cholestrol and sugar

3) TRIPHALA - as said above

4) CINNAMON AND HONEY -1/2 tsp cinnamon + 1 tsp honey in warm water- improves HDL and burns fat

5) HALDI DOODH at night- improves liver function and detoxification

6) LEMON WATER -drink warm water with lemon in morning- helps kapha balance and fat metabolism

DIET -barley, millet, horse garam -old rice , moong dal -garlic, ginger, black pepper, turmeric -bitter vegetables- bitter gourd, bottle gourd, drumstick - fruits like amla, apple, pomegranate -small quantity of cow’s ghee- helps proper fat metabolism -warm water throughout the day

AVOID -fried, oily, and junk foods -sweets, pastries, chocolates -red meat, egg yolk, processed cheese -white rice, potatoes, and refined flour -alcohol, cold drinks, and curd especially at night

LIFESTYLE 1) DAILY EXERCISE -brisk walk, cycling, or swimming for at least 40-45 min daily. Avoid daytime sleeping- it increases kapha

2) STRESS MANAGEMENT -stress raises cholestrol. practice meditation, chanting, or deep breathing

3) SLEEP -7 hours of proper sleep is ideal- avoid late night eating or sleeping after meals

4) AVOID SEDENTARY HABITS -long sitting periods should be broken with short walks

YOGA ASANAS -ardha matsyendrasana= improves liver function -paschimottanasana= enhances digestion -dhanurasana= activates fat metabolism -pawanmuktasana= relieves bloating and improves circulation -surya namaskar= excellent full body fat burner

PRANAYAM -kapalbhati= 3 rounds of 60 strokes- burns fat, detoxifies -anulom vilom= balances doshas - bhastrika= energizes metabolism - bhramari= reduces stress and anxiety

Improvement usually seen in 6-8 weeks, but full normalisation may take 3-6 months depending on diet and discipline

High cholestrol is fully manageable through Ayurveda when addressed early Medicines alone are not enough- the real cure lies in correcting digestion, detoxifying the body, and changing lifestyle permanently

If you follow -proper diet -healthy habits -medications

Then your cholesterol, weight, energy, and overall well-being will improve naturally and safely without side effects

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

To address raised cholesterol and triglycerides levels, Ayurveda offers a holistic approach centering on diet, lifestyle, and natural remedies. Focusing initially on diet, incorporate more fiber-rich foods such as whole grains and vegetables, which aid in lowering cholesterol. Including healthy fats from seeds and nuts like flaxseed, almonds can be beneficial. Limit intake of saturated fats; avoid fried food, processed meats and high-fat dairy products.

Engage in regular physical activities like brisk walking, yoga or cycling for at least 30 minutes a day—this helps to manage weight and improve circulation. Additionally, practices like pranayama, particularly kapalabhati and anulom vilom, are effective in balancing lipids and promoting heart health.

Herbs like Guggulu and Arjuna have been historically utilized for heart health and could be helpful in your regimen. However, it’s important to consult with Ayurvedic practitioner before incorporating these, as they should be matched to your unique constitution or Prakriti.

Ensure that you maintain an active lifestyle in accordance with your comfort and capability—overexertion is undesirable in Ayurveda. Pay attention to your stress levels, as high stress affects cholesterol levels. Techniques such as meditation and mindfulness can help, bringing balance to mind, body and spirit.

Handling meals mindfully can further enhance your digestion and metabolism. Implement smaller, more frequent meals promoting healthy digestion. Liquids can provide support as well, choose warm, digestible drinks like herbal teas, avoiding cold and carbonated beverages.

Ideal timings, eat during main mealtimes, avoid late-night snacks as they can impair digestion. Regularly monitor your blood lipid profile under medical guidance. In situations where cholesterol is significantly high or unresponsive to lifestyle changes, seeking urgent medical care is crucial to mitigate risks of cardiovascular complications.

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

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. Anirudh Deshmukh
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. Ayush Varma
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.

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. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

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. Sneh Deep Pargi
I am someone who really ended up settling deep into the whole reversal space—chronic disorders, lifestyle chaos, all the long-haul stuff people usually carry around for years without much shift. Over the last 4+ years in clinical practice, I’ve worked a lot with type 2 diabetes, high BP, obesity cases, thyroid things (esp. subclinical or fluctuating TSH), PCOS, hormonal imbalances, and weird in-between patterns that don’t always fit textbook categories but clearly show metabolic distress. Most of my work revolves around getting to the *why* underneath—why is the sugar staying high despite meds, why is the weight stuck despite diets, why the cycle is irregular even when scans look "normal". Once we catch that core disruption, I use a combination of proper Ayurvedic detox (when required), internal herbal meds, food corrections, and small lifestyle shifts—nothing fancy but consistent stuff that’s aligned to that person’s nature and stage. I’ve seen many patients who came in frustrated, stuck in loops of test-repeat-dose-adjust and just kinda tired of being ‘managed’ rather than understood. Honestly, a lot of that changes when digestion gets strong again, sleep starts coming on time, or energy returns mid-morning without 2 coffees... those are the cues I track more than just lab values. My focus isn’t just removing meds fast—it’s about actually getting the body to *not need* them over time, which takes clear follow-ups, adjusting plans as things shift, and teaching people how to read their own signals. I don’t use one-size fits all panchakarma either—if detox makes sense, we do it right. If rebuilding is needed first, we wait. Gut healing, liver regulation, insulin sensitivity, cycle rhythm—all those have very specific Ayurvedic pathways that I like to apply carefully, not blindly. And yeah, some cases do surprise me with how fast they respond when the direction’s right. My work feels most real when a patient slowly starts feeling like *themselves* again... not just "treated". That’s what I aim for every time.

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. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.
