HOW AYURVEDA CAN TREAT THYROID IN NATURAL WAY

The thyroid gland is an endocrine gland present in the neck and diseases of these glands are most commonly attributed to reduced or excessive intake of iodine and tyrosine. Some common reasons for thyroid disorders are Tumours of thyroid glands, excess stress, reduced or excessive intake of side effects of medicines, and toxicity of the goitre etc. Thyroid gland produces hormones known as thyroxine/T4, triiodothyronine/T3, & calcitonin.

Why CAC IBS kit is good for IBS patients

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a long-term/chronic condition of the bowel that causes episodes of abdominal cramps, bloating, bulging and either constipation or diarrhoea. IBS is a problem with how the bowel works. There is otherwise nothing wrong with the bowel.

It can affect anyone at any age but it most often first develops in young adults. Women are affected more often than men.

THE AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE-

In ayurveda, Irritable Bowel Syndrome is known as ‘Grahani roga’ which is disturbed functions of the bowels and intestines. Grahani (duodenum) is the seat of Agni (digestive fire). Food is held here until it is completely digested by digestive juices. After the food is completely digested, it then passes on to the next part of the digestive tract for absorption, but if the Agni is weak, then the food is not completely digested and passes on in a half digested form.

If the food is in a half digested form, it leads to Ama formation. These toxins (Aama) will further combine with normal food leading to foul smelling stools. Hence one will also find Ama accumulation in the body when one suffers from irritable bowel syndrome.

CAUSES OF IBS-

  • Muscle contractions in the intestine.
