Digestive disorders are among the most common health concerns today, affecting people of all age groups. Symptoms such as acidity, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and indigestion often indicate an imbalance in the digestive system.
In Ayurveda, digestion is governed by Agni (digestive fire). When Agni is weak or disturbed, it leads to improper digestion and formation of Ama (metabolic toxins). This Ama accumulates in the body, blocks channels (Srotas), and disrupts the balance of Doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), resulting in various gastrointestinal disorders. Ayurveda focuses on correcting the root cause by strengthening Agni, eliminating toxins, and restoring Dosha balance rather than merely suppressing symptoms.
Acid Reflux (Amlapitta)
Amlapitta is primarily a Pitta-dominant disorder caused by excess heat in the stomach.
- Burning sensation in chest and throat
- Sour belching and regurgitation
- Nausea and heaviness after meals
- Loss of appetite
- Headache or irritability in chronic cases
Indigestion (Ajirna)
Ajirna occurs when food is not properly digested due to weak digestive fire.
- Bloating and abdominal discomfort
- Feeling of fullness even after small meals
- Gas formation
- Coated tongue and bad breath
- Lethargy and heaviness
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (Grahani)
Grahani is associated with impaired digestive function and irregular bowel habits.

- Symptoms aggravated by stress and improper diet
Chronic Constipation (Vibandha)
Often related to aggravated Vata Dosha.

Inflammatory Bowel Conditions
Chronic inflammation of the intestines may resemble conditions like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease.
