is ajamamsa rasayanam good for weight gain - #43879

Scarlett

I am struggling with my weight lately and just heard about ajamamsa rasayanam. Friends keep telling me it’s super effective for gaining weight, but I’m kinda skeptical! I mean, I’ve tried so many things before and with no luck. I always felt undernourished, and despite eating well, I’m still quite lean, which has led me to explore different options. Last month, I got some blood work done, and my doctor mentioned my protein levels were low - which is frustrating, too, because I eat a fair amount of protein-rich foods. Anyway, I started thinking maybe ajamamsa rasayanam could help me, especially since I've heard it boosts digestion and absorption. That sounds good, right? But part of me thinks, is ajamamsa rasayanam truly good for weight gain or is it just another thing with fancy claims? I also worry about whether it’s suitable for everyone. Lately, I’ve noticed I have this constant craving for snacks, which might indicate my body is lacking something. Should I just dive into ajamamsa rasayanam, or should I really check in with an Ayurvedic doc first? I guess my mind is going back and forth on this. Would love some insight from you guys about whether is ajamamsa rasayanam good for weight gain, based on your experiences or knowledge! Thanks a bunch!

Ajamamsa Rasayanam may indeed be a beneficial option for weight gain, especially if you are experiencing difficulties in absorbing and assimilating nutrients, but, it’s essential to consider it within the broader picture of your overall health and Ayurvedic principles. Ajamamsa, derived from goat meat, is traditionally used in Ayurveda for conditions where tissue building, nourishment, and strength are needed. The idea is that this formulation can bolster your digestive fire (agni), improve assimilation, and strengthen the dhatus (body tissues), leading to healthy weight gain.

First, let’s touch on your concerns about low protein levels. Despite consuming enough protein-rich foods, if you’re not gaining weight, it’s likely your agni isn’t burning as effectively it could be. Ajamamsa Rasayanam might help enhance this by supporting better digestion and absorption. However, its effectiveness can vary based on your dosha (body constitution) and underlying imbalances. It tends to favor Vata dosha imbalances due to its nourishing qualities. If you’re naturally Vata-dominant, you might particularly benefit from it. Considering your situation, checking with an Ayurvedic practitioner before diving in would be ideal.

Also, since you’re noticing increased snack cravings, there could be an imbalance in your eating routine or timings, leading to inefficient nutrient absorption. Start by balancing your meals around your digestive capacity and avoid excessive fasting or irregular eating patterns. Consider incorporating grounding, warm meals that are easier to digest, especially during peak digestive hours between 10 AM - 2 PM and evening.

Similarly, lifestyle-wise, practices like yoga and pranayama can strengthen your digestive system over time, aiding in a more balanced approach to metabolism and weight gain. Yes, ajamasa rasayanam holds potential for weight gain, yet having professional guidance can tailor this remedy ensuring it’s the right step in your health journey.
