sajjikshar - #7662
I recently came across sajjikshar while researching natural remedies for digestion and acidity. I’ve been struggling with recurring acidity, bloating, and occasional discomfort after meals, and I’m curious about how sajjikshar works as an Ayurvedic treatment. From what I understand, it’s an alkaline compound derived from natural sources, often used to balance excess acid in the stomach. My main symptoms include frequent acid reflux, a burning sensation in the chest, and a feeling of heaviness after eating. I’ve tried various antacids and dietary changes, but they only offer temporary relief. I’m hoping that sajjikshar might be a more effective, long-term solution. How exactly does sajjikshar help with digestive issues? Does it only neutralize stomach acid, or does it have broader benefits for gut health? I’ve also read that sajjikshar is sometimes used for urinary issues and other conditions related to excess heat in the body. Can it help with multiple symptoms, or is it primarily for digestion? Are there specific dosha imbalances (like pitta) that sajjikshar addresses, and how should it be taken to maximize its effectiveness? Another question I have is about preparation and usage. Should sajjikshar be taken with warm water, or can it be mixed with herbal decoctions like Triphala? Are there specific times of the day when it’s most effective, such as before or after meals? While I know Ayurveda remedies are generally safe, I’m concerned about potential side effects. Can long-term use of sajjikshar lead to any imbalances or issues, especially for someone with sensitive digestion? If anyone here has used sajjikshar for acidity or related issues, I’d love to hear your experience. How long did it take to notice improvements, and did you make any complementary changes to your diet or lifestyle for better results? Are there any foods or habits to avoid while using sajjikshar to prevent further aggravation of acidity?
