What does Ayurveda say about IBS ?
According to the Ayurveda Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is referred to as Grahani, which is described as an Agni Adhiṣṭhāna (Digestive Fire), which aids in charge of converting food into energy and nutrients. Aahaar’s ingestion, digestion, absorption, and assimilation are all controlled by Grahani. If a person has difficulty in digesting food, this suggests that their Agni (Digestive System), or fire element—is weak.

Based on Bowel Patterns, it divided into four Primary types:

Vataja (Major Constipation Grahani (IBS))

Pittaja (Predominant Diarrhoea Grahani (IBS))

Kaphaja (Predominance of Dysentery Grahani(IBS))

Tridoṣaja(When all of the mentioned symptoms are present together)

What Causes Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)?

Grahani (IBS) is mostly caused by insufficient mandagni (digestive fire) and ama (toxin generation). As per Ayurveda, IBS is linked to:

Bad diet and nutrition, such as eating a lot of fried food, eating too much, eating foods that are unhealthy for your gut, drinking too much, and eating cold meals.

Wrong timing of eating or skipping meals while you're hungry.

Many underlying disorders include a neural system imbalance, aberrant gastrointestinal motor and sensory activity, etc.

Accumulation of ama (toxins) in the tissues used for circulation.

Stress of any kind, both physical and emotional, weakens the body's defences and internal fortitude.

A disturbed and irregular natural biological rhythm.

Patient's Testimonial

Harbhajan Kaur

IBS Patient

Irritable bowel syndrome has always been a problem for my younger sister. Her IBS symptoms would frequently fluctuate between constipation and diarrhoea. All of the medications, doctors, and natural cures she tried were failed. She has experienced significant improvements in her health once we started our therapy at Dr. Sharda Ayurveda clinic. She has stopped experiencing any IBS symptoms by taking her normal medicines and eating the right foods.
