Introduction
Ayurveda treats gastric problems based on age (childhood, adult, elderly). Gastric problems have become a common but serious health issue nowadays, which affects the quality of life. These problems can occur to a person of any age and can be caused by many reasons, such as irregular lifestyle, unhealthy diet, and mental stress.
This ancient system of medicine focuses on balancing the various doshas of the body—vata, pitta, and kapha—to establish balance in the body and solve health problems. Let’s find out how Ayurveda treats gastric problems according to age.
### 1. Childhood Gastric Problems (Kapha Pradham Dosha)
Kapha dosha is dominant in childhood, which mainly leads to constipation and other gastric problems. For children, Lavana Bhaskar Churna is a very effective remedy. This Ayurvedic churna is made up of various salts and herbs, which not only improves digestion but also increases appetite. Ingredients like dry ginger, black pepper, long pepper, and panchlavana soothe the stomach of children and relieve constipation. This churna is safe and effective for children, keeping their stomach clean and healthy.
### 2. Gastric Problems in Adults (Pitta Pradham Dosha)
Adults are more affected by pitta dosha, which causes problems like heartburn, acidity, and belching. Avipattikar Churna is highly beneficial for these types of problems. It contains ingredients like laung (clove) along with haritaki, bibhitaka, amalaki, pippali, shunthi, and vasa, which balance the pitta dosha and provide relief from gastric problems. Regular consumption of this churna not only improves digestion but also provides relief from problems like ulcers. Apart from this, this churna is also helpful in keeping other organs of the body, such as liver and kidneys, healthy.
### 3. Gastric Problems of Senior Citizens (Vata Pradhan Dosha)
As age increases, the effect of Vata dosha increases, causing gastric problems and body pain. The Vata (air) that used to move around the body and carry nutrients is now moving towards stagnation. This happens due to the accumulation of dead cells in the body which obstructs its movement. The body part where it is stopped or its movement is less than normal will start moving less. The result is pain, swelling, heat and redness. Ajmodaadi Churna is a wonderful solution for senior citizens. It contains ingredients like Ajmoda, dry ginger, and carom seeds, which balance the Vata dosha and provide relief from gastric problems. Apart from this, this churna also reduces other pains and swelling in the body, thereby improving the overall health of the elderly. Consumption of this churna is also beneficial for Vata-related diseases and helps in maintaining a healthy body as a whole.
### Other Ayurvedic Treatments
When gastric problems become severe, there are many other effective medicines available in Ayurveda. These include treatment with medicines like Sutshekhar Rasa, Kamdudha Rasa, Praval Panchamrit, Amalaki Rasayan, Mulethi Churna, Tankan Bhasma, Hingvashtak Churna, and Shilajit Bhasma. These medicines help in improving the digestive system, reducing acidity, and balancing all the doshas of the body. Apart from these, Abhrak Bhasma Satputi also provides significant benefits as a supportive treatment for all age groups. Based on my experience, when the problem is not understood, the right medicines are not being selected, then just use Abhrak Bhasma Satputi, some benefit will be seen. Time is also required for the correct diagnosis, which will be found.
### Conclusion
