Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Introduction
Inflammatory bowel disease (Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease) is idiopathic (cause not known, probably autoimmune) chronic inflammatory disease of the bowel, characterized by diarrhea (often bloody), abdominal pain, and weight loss. Treatment includes anti-inflammatory agents, antibiotics, steroids, immuno-supressants, and surgery. Total colectomy is considered by modern medicine as curative treatment for colitis.
According to Ayurveda, IBD is a Pitta disorder, that affects people with Pitta predominant constitution when their lifestyle habits continue to push Pitta energy out of balance. The root cause is chronic small bowel (site of Pitta) constipation which is treated by pitta pacifying herbs, lifestyle changes, and Yoga-Pranayama exercises.

Our herbal supplement formula includes ten different herbs: Feniculum vulgare, Cyperus rotundus, Glycerhiza glabra, Aegle marmelos, Emblica officinalis, Tinospora cordifolia, Messua ferrea, Plantago ovata, Withamnia somnifera, and Aloe vera. 1-2 tsp of this herbal supplement powder is stirred in a cup of water, along with 1 tsp honey, and taken orally twice a day, after breakfast and dinner.
The herbal supplements, along with the suggested lifestyle changes, and yoga-pranayama, have helped several patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Using these methods, when body starts to heal from within, first the symptoms go away, then the dependence on medication, and then you develop immunity towards occasional indulgence. Complete healing can take anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, but you will start feeling better in a matter of weeks.
