Namaste, Mitti ya chalk (seleti pencil) khane ki craving ko pica kehte hain, aur ye usually iron deficiency (khoon ki kami) ya nutritional deficiency ka sign hota hai. Simple understanding: Jab body mein iron ya minerals ki kami hoti hai, to aise unusual cravings develop ho sakte hain. Aapka poor appetite + long duration craving bhi isi taraf indicate karta hai. Simple measures that may help: Sabse pehle blood test (Hb, iron levels) karwana important hai. Diet mein include karein green leafy vegetables, beetroot, dates, jaggery (gud), black raisins. Vitamin C (lemon, amla) ke saath iron lena absorption improve karta hai. Avoid karein junk food aur empty stomach rehna. Regular meal timing maintain karein. Jaise-jaise deficiency improve hogi, craving bhi gradually kam ho jaati hai. Ayurvedic medicines with dose and timing: Lohasava – 15–20 ml with equal water, after lunch and dinner Punarnavadi Mandur – 1 tablet, twice daily after meals Ye medicines traditionally iron levels aur energy improve karne mein help karte hain. Saath mein proper diet aur deficiency correction bahut zaroori hai. Consult me for more advice and suggestions on the above medicines.

The condition you tell us about craving to eat chalk or soil it is pointing towards mritikka bhakshan Jan Pandu or imbalance of tissue You said that poor appetite so there is a possibility of Agni Mandya or weak digestive fire and possibly a krimi in your intestines 1) so we will focus on deepan and pachan , krimighna and Pandughna chikitsa 1) Dashmoolarishtam- 15 ml after meal twice daily 2) lohasavam- 15 ml mix with equal water after food 3) draksha leyham- 1 tsf 30 minutes before food 4) krimighna Vati -1 tablet at bed time for 3 to 5 days 5) Dadimadi ghrita - 1 Tsf with warm milk on empty stomach Focus on pomegranate Amla black raisins dates and spinach use buttermilk with roasted jeera and Ginger avoid sir spicy fermented food like curd and Pickle drink water stored in copper vessel or lukewarm water boiled with A Pinch of dry ginger Regular self massage with sesame oil in whole body before bath Rings the mouth with warm saltwater or trifla decoction whenever you are craving Engage the light yoga like Surya Namaskar everyday
