IBS & Digestive Disorders: Healing Your Gut with Ayurveda

Your gut is your "second brain" — it produces 90% of your serotonin, houses 70% of your immune system, and directly influences your mood, energy, and disease risk. When gut health suffers, everything suffers.

• IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) — alternating constipation, diarrhea, bloating, and pain
• GERD / Acid Reflux — chronic heartburn and esophageal damage
• Gastritis — stomach lining inflammation
• IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) — Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis
• Leaky Gut Syndrome — intestinal permeability driving systemic inflammation

In Ayurveda, all disease begins with impaired Agni (digestive fire). Our treatment focuses on restoring optimal digestive function:

• Herbal formulations to strengthen digestive enzymes
• Trikatu (ginger, black pepper, long pepper) for kindling Agni
• Hingwashtak Churna for gas, bloating, and indigestion

• Virechana — therapeutic purgation to clear accumulated Pitta and toxins
• Basti — medicated enema therapy for deep gut healing
• Snehapana — internal oleation with medicated ghee to heal the gut lining

• Kutaja — specific for IBS-D (diarrhea-predominant IBS)
• Bilva (Bael) — heals intestinal mucosa
• Amalaki (Amla) — reduces gastric acidity and heals ulcers
• Yashtimadhu (Licorice) — soothes inflamed digestive tract

• Eat mindfully — chew each bite 20-30 times
• Avoid eating when stressed — stress shuts down digestion
• Include probiotic foods — curd, buttermilk, fermented vegetables
• Drink warm water throughout the day — cold drinks dampen Agni
• Follow food combining principles — avoid fruit immediately after meals
