✓Prescription
Arogyavardhini Vati – 1 tablet morning after breakfast
Medohar Guggulu – 1–2 tablets twice daily after food
Triphala Churna – 3 gm night with warm water
Punarnavadi Mandoor – 250 mg twice daily after food
✓Diet Tweaks
Cut dark bread & chocolate to 1–2 small pieces/week
Replace with: ragi/jowar porridge, quinoa, moong dal khichdi + 1–2 tsp ghee
Daily must: bitter gourd (karela) cooked, 1 tsp ground flaxseeds, pomegranate (1), soaked almonds (6–8)
Eat 3 regular meals – no skipping (skipping worsens insulin resistance)
Dinner before 7 pm, light (soup/khichdi)
✓Exercise
Continue walks (30–45 min) + leg/core strengthening
Add Vajrasana 10 min after meals (reduces belly bloating & improves digestion)
Legs elevated 15–20 min evening (reduces abdominal pressure)
✓Monitor BP & sugar regularly (diabetic risk high with belly fat)
Consult endocrinologist/gynaecologist if not done (check thyroid, cortisol, insulin levels)

Yes it’s possible
—Belly fat = slow digestion + ama (toxins) + excess Kapha
Eat 3 regular warm meals (no skipping)
Make lunch the biggest meal
Light, early dinner (before 7 pm)
Prefer warm, cooked foods
Reduce heavy wheat bread & frequent chocolate
Add ginger, cumin, black pepper
Daily brisk walking + light strength
