Pitta Treatment In Ayurveda - #4014
For the last few months, I’ve been struggling with a lot of issues that I think might be related to excess pitta. My main problem is severe acidity and heartburn. Almost every time I eat spicy or sour foods, I feel a burning sensation in my chest and throat. I’ve also noticed that my skin has been breaking out more often, and there’s this constant heat in my body. After doing some research, I found out these symptoms might be connected to a pitta imbalance. That’s why I’m looking for advice on pitta treatment in Ayurveda. I read that Ayurveda treats pitta imbalances by cooling the body and mind, but I’m not sure where to start. Are there specific herbs or remedies that are commonly used for pitta treatment in Ayurveda? I saw some recommendations for aloe vera, amla, and shatavari. Do these really help reduce pitta, or are there better options? Diet also seems to play a big role in pitta treatment in Ayurveda, but I’m confused about what’s okay to eat. For example, are all sour fruits bad for pitta, or are there exceptions? Can I still eat tomatoes and onions, or should I avoid them completely? A lot of the pitta treatment guides online give conflicting advice, so I’d love to hear from someone who knows more about this. Stress is another thing I’ve been struggling with lately, and I feel like it’s making my symptoms worse. Does pitta treatment in Ayurveda include stress-relief practices like yoga or meditation? If so, are there specific poses or techniques that are better for calming pitta energy? I’m also wondering about lifestyle changes. Should I avoid exercise that generates heat, like running, or is it okay in moderation? How important is daily routine in pitta treatment in Ayurveda? I’ve seen mentions of cooling massages and oil therapies, but I don’t know if they’re practical for everyday life. If anyone has successfully reduced pitta with Ayurvedic methods, I’d love to hear your experiences. What worked for you, and how long did it take to see improvements? Are there any common mistakes people make when starting pitta treatment in Ayurveda?
