I have rehmuotiod arithis - #4053

For rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Ayurveda suggests looking at the vata dosha, as it governs movement and can lead to stiffness and pain when out of balance. RA is considered a vata-vitiating condition, and the main goals are to reduce inflammation, promote circulation, and balance vata through diet, lifestyle, and herbal support. Ayurvedic recommendations for RA include: Diet: Favor warm, nourishing, and anti-inflammatory foods like soups, stews, ghee, and spices such as turmeric, ginger, and garlic. Lifestyle: Incorporate gentle yoga and meditation to reduce stress and improve circulation. Stay away from too much physical strain, as excess activity can aggravate vata. Herbs: Ashwagandha (for joint health), Turmeric (for inflammation), and Guggul (for joint support) are commonly used in Ayurveda to support healing in RA. Always consult an Ayurvedic doctor for personalized treatment.
