Don’t worry 🌱 Ayurveda 🌱 💠 This is a disease in which undigested food ( ama) is accumulated in the amashaya and stool is retained in the colon (pakvasaya) due to the vitiation of apana vayu. Because of the abnormal condition of apana vayu the stool is not expelled out and the digestion is disturbed. ❌ * Reduce spicy, sour, oily food stuffs, tubers, pickles, fried items * Avoid fasting and full meals * Avoid intake of cold water in empty stomach * Avoid non vegetarian food, hotel food, bakery items, cool drinks * Avoid jack fruit, ghee, alcohol, smoking * stress ✅ * Intake light food, butter milk * Water processed with ginger * Curry leaves, carrot, fibre rich vegetables, sappotta, cabbage. 💊 MEDICINES 💊 1. Gandharvahastyadi kashayam - 15 ml with 60 ml boiled hot water morning and evening before food (empty stomach) 2. Dhanwantaram gulika - 2 - 0 - 2 after food 3. Hinguvachadi choornam - 1 tspn with butter milk morning and night before food 4. Hridyavirechanam - 1 tspn with warm water at bed time 🌱 In lateral phase 1. Abhayarishtam - 25 ml twice daily after food 2. Anuloma DS 1 - 0 - 1 bed time 3. Medihoney syrup - 10 ml with 1/2 glass warm water at night after food 4.

HELLO, For a 40 year old person (90 kg, 174cm) with > 6 months chronic constipation, bloating, weakness, and weight gain, Ayurveda usually considers this mainly a Vata-dominant digestive disorder with ama (toxins) accumulation and Weak Agni (digestive fire). Long-term use of laxatives may further weaken natural bowel function, so treatment focuses on improving digestion, lubricating intestines, and regulating bowel movement naturally Your symptoms suggest -vata aggravation in colon -mandagni (low digestive fire) -ama accumulation -possible meda Dhatu imbalance (weight gain) TREATMENT GOALS -improve digestion -regulate downward movement of vata -gentle bowel cleansing -ama removal -metabolism correction INTERNAL MEDICATIONS FOR CHRONIC CONSTIPATION 1)TRIPHALA CHURNA=1 tsp with warm water at bedtime =mild laxative, improves digestion, detoxifies colon FOR GAS AND BLOATING 2) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals twice daily =reduces gas, improves digestion, relieves bloating FOR WEAK DIGESTION + WEIGHT 3) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals =improves metabolism, helps weight management, supports liver function FOR CHRONIC CONSTIPATION WITH DRY COLON 4) GANDHARVA HARITAKI CHURNA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water =lubricates intestines , gentle laxative, reduces vata IF SEVERE CONSTIPATION 5) ABAYARISHTA= 20ml with equal water after dinner =improves bowel movement, reduces gas and bloating HOME REMEDIES MORNING REMEDY Drink on empty stomach Warm water + 1 tsp ghee + few drops lemon OR -soaked black raisins 10-15 overnight NIGHT REMEDY 1 tsp ghee in warm milk before sleep This lubricates intestines and improves bowel movement DIET -warm foods -vegetable soups -oats -whole wheat -moong dal -papaya -figs -flax seeds -bottle gourd -spinach Drink 2.5-3 L water daily AVOID -excess tea, coffee -refined flour -fried foods -cheese -red meat -processed food -cold drinks -eating late night LIFESTYLE CHANGES -wake up early -drink warm water -try bowel movement same time dailyy -20-30 min walking YOGA ASANAS -pawanmuktasana -malasana -bhujangasana -vajrasana after meals -kapalbhati pranayam These stimulate intestinal movement WEIGHT MANAGEMENT Because BMI is about 29.7 (overweight) -TRIPHALA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals -MEDOHARA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals -TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with warm water before meals -LEMON HONEY WARM WATER MORNING ALSO -walk 40 minutes daily -avoid eating after 8 pm EXPECTED IMPROVEMENT TIMELINE -Gas and bloating= 1-2 weeks -constipation= 2-3 weeks -weight and digestion= 2-3 months DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU
