Is Ghee Good For Mouth Ulcer - #7751
I’ve been dealing with recurring mouth ulcers, and someone suggested that ghee might be a natural remedy for healing them. This got me curious—how effective is ghee for mouth ulcers, and why is it considered beneficial in Ayurveda? From what I’ve read, ghee is believed to have cooling and healing properties, making it useful for soothing inflammation. Does this mean it can directly heal mouth ulcers, or does it only provide temporary relief? Also, what’s the best way to apply ghee to a mouth ulcer? Should it be used as a topical application, or can consuming ghee also help in the healing process? I’ve also heard that mouth ulcers can be linked to pitta imbalance, which might explain why ghee—a cooling agent—is recommended. Are there other Ayurvedic remedies or practices that can complement the use of ghee for mouth ulcers? For example, would certain herbs or dietary changes speed up the recovery process? Another concern is whether all types of ghee are equally effective. Should I look for a specific kind of ghee, like A2 cow ghee or ghee made using traditional Ayurvedic methods? Also, how frequently should it be applied, and are there any situations where using ghee might worsen the condition? If anyone has used ghee for mouth ulcers, I’d love to hear about your experience. Did it work for you, and how long did it take to see results? Were there any additional steps you followed to prevent ulcers from recurring? I’m also curious if ghee has benefits for other oral health issues, like dry mouth or gum problems. Any insights or recommendations would be really helpful as I explore this natural remedy for my recurring mouth ulcers.
