If you’ve ever felt bloated after eating something "healthy," or had your gut feel like it’s staging a rebellion, you’re not alone. Digestive discomfort has become a modern epidemic — but it’s one that Ayurveda has been treating for over 5,000 years.

At Padmved, we don’t believe your gut is something to suppress with pills. It’s something to listen to. Ayurveda gives us a complete map to understand digestive imbalances — and treat them at the source.

The Ayurvedic View of Digestion: It Starts with Agni

Everything in Ayurveda revolves around Agni — your digestive fire. When your Agni is balanced, food gets digested, nutrients are absorbed, and toxins (Ama) are burned away. But when Agni weakens? That’s when things go south.

Depending on which dosha is imbalanced, your digestion reacts differently:

• Vata-type imbalance: Gas, bloating, constipation, irregular appetite.
• Pitta-type imbalance: Acidity, loose motions, heartburn.
• Kapha-type imbalance: Sluggish digestion, heaviness, mucus formation.

The goal isn’t to suppress symptoms. It’s to balance Agni and bring your digestive system back to its natural rhythm.

Common Digestive Disorders, Ayurvedic Insights

1. Bloating and Gas

Usually linked to Vata imbalance and weak digestion. Ayurveda recommends warm, moist foods, carminative herbs like hing (asafoetida), and oil massages to ground Vata.

One effective tip? Sip warm cumin-fennel-ginger tea post meals. It helps balance Vata and stimulates Agni.

2. IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)

IBS is not just a physical issue — Ayurveda sees it as a mind-gut disconnect. Stress, anxiety, irregular eating, and poor sleep all play a role.

Healing requires a holistic plan: diet, lifestyle, herbs, and mental balance.

At Padmved, we work with herbs like Bilva, Amla, Licorice, and Triphala, all known to soothe the gut and regulate bowel movements. Learn more about Triphala's benefits

3. Acidity and Heartburn

These come from excess Pitta. Avoid spicy, fermented, and oily foods. Include aloe vera, coriander, amla, and coconut water in your diet.

A morning ritual of warm water with ghee and a pinch of licorice powder can do wonders.

5 Ayurvedic Tips to Heal Your Gut Naturally

1. Eat According to Your Dosha

This is key. A Vata-dominant person needs grounding foods like soups and oils. Pitta types benefit from cooling foods like coconut and cucumber. Kapha types need light, spicy, warm foods.

Still not sure about your dosha? We’re building tools at Padmved to help you understand that better.

2. Follow an Eating Routine

Ayurveda doesn’t like snacking. Eat 2-3 proper meals a day at the same time. It helps reset your digestive clock and lets your Agni work efficiently.

3. Use Digestive Herbs

Some of the best Ayurvedic herbs for digestion include:

• Triphala: Regulates bowels, cleanses the gut.
• Ajwain: Relieves gas and indigestion.
• Ginger: Fires up sluggish Agni.

Padmved offers herbal blends powered by these very ingredients, crafted to support long-term gut wellness — not just short-term relief.

4. Avoid Cold Foods and Beverages

Cold dulls Agni. Stick to warm water, herbal teas, and freshly cooked meals. Your gut likes rhythm and warmth.

5. Start a Pre-Sleep Ritual

Take Triphala or Padmved Gut Restore capsules 30 minutes before sleep with lukewarm water. It improves elimination and balances gut bacteria overnight.

A Gut-Healing Lifestyle Is the Real Fix

No diet or capsule can fix your gut if your lifestyle is still chaotic. Ayurveda isn’t a quick fix — it’s a system of rhythm, rest, and restoration.
