Gastrointestinal Diseases, as viewed through Ayurvedic principles, are disruptions in the balance of the digestive fire (agni) and the body’s doshas, particularly Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These diseases encompass a range of conditions affecting digestion, absorption, and elimination, including common issues like indigestion, gastritis, and acid reflux, as well as more complex disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), ulcerative colitis, and gastrointestinal cancers.
Ayurvedic management of gastrointestinal diseases emphasizes restoring balance to the digestive system through personalized herbal formulations, dietary modifications, lifestyle adjustments, and purification therapies (Panchakarma). These interventions aim to strengthen digestive fire (agni), pacify aggravated doshas, promote healthy digestion, and eliminate toxins (ama) that may contribute to gastrointestinal imbalances.
In addition to traditional Ayurvedic treatments, lifestyle practices such as mindful eating, stress reduction techniques, and regular physical activity are integral to maintaining digestive health and overall well-being. Ayurveda’s holistic approach not only addresses symptoms but also targets root imbalances to support optimal gastrointestinal function and vitality.
