Now that the summer season is at its peak, the intense environmental heat (Pitta) is further melting the unformed metabolic waste in your gut, leading to the shapeless motions. Finding herbs that pacify Vata without being heavy (which causes weight gain) or heating (which causes loose motions) is tricky, but entirely possible. We need classical herbs that are Sheeta (cooling), Grahi (moisture-absorbing to bind the stool) and Laghu (light to digest so they don’t add mass). ✓Ayurvedic Action Plan We need to gently stabilize your digestive fire, bind the shapeless stool, and treat the dizziness without adding any heavy, weight-gaining herbs. 1. Dadimashtaka Churna Dosage: 1/2 teaspoon twice a day. Time: 15 minutes before your lunch and dinner. Vehicle: Mixed with a sip of normal, room-temperature water. 2. Drakshadi Kashayam Dosage: 15 ml mixed with 15 ml of normal water. Time: Twice a day, 30 minutes after your meals. 3. Bilva (Bael Fruit) Powder Dosage: 1/2 teaspoon once a day. Time: Mid-afternoon. Vehicle: Normal water. ✓Crucial Care Rules Routine is the Antidote to Vata: Because intermittent fasting broke your digestive rhythm (Visham Agni), you must eat your meals at the exact same time every single day. Routine is the ultimate natural cure for Vata. Even if you are not very hungry, eat a small, light portion at the set time to retrain your stomach’s biological clock. Cooling Hydration: Stop drinking plain water. Boil your daily drinking water with 1 teaspoon of coriander seeds and 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds. Let it cool to room temperature and drink it throughout the day. It actively cools the gut, prevents summer heat-strokes, and continuously fights bloating. Avoid Raw Summer Salads: Even though it is summer, do not eat raw salads or raw sprouts. They are extremely light and dry, which will instantly worsen your Vata bloating and dizziness. Always lightly steam your vegetables. Regards, Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma
