AYURVEDIC APPROACH FOR PREVENTION OF HAIRFALL

Most disorders in Ayurveda are a result of an imbalance in the Tridoshas.  Hair fall occurs as a result of an imbalance in the Pitta. An aggravation of pitta reduces the digestive and metabolic functions of the body and hence there is a deficiency in the supply of nutrients to the scalp and hair fall occurs.

Hence the most important thing is to balance Pitta. Pitta is linked to the fire element and is one which is responsible for digestion and metabolism. Liver and Stomach are the seat of Pitta. To balance pitta and to prevent hair fall one shall follow the following steps

 

Consuming more foods with a cooling virya (potency)

Avoiding pungent and spicy foods

Get a good physical exercise every day. This helps in the circulation of blood and thus more nutrients can reach the scalp.

As much as possible having a balanced diet with respect to the six tastes and climate

Oil Massage one’s scalp regularly

Meditate to reduce stress

Eat at regular intervals, avoid skipping meals

Follow Dinacharya (daily habits recommended in Ayurveda) and Rituacharya ( season specific habits)

Stay hydrated, drink adequate amount of water in regular intervals

Get a good quality of sleep. Sleeping at the right time (night) is also very important. Not getting proper sleep can also cause hair fall as it heats up the skull.

Reduce the use of chemical shampoos and opt for natural alternatives like Shikkakai powder.

Practicing relevant Yogasanas. Asanas like Shirsh asana or head stand and Sarvaanga asana or shoulder stand can help fitter and more balanced people combat hair fall.

Avoid leaving the hair wet for long, since this can cause damage.

 

Even when you miss out on some of the above points because of your lifestyle and personal situations, there are other alternatives which can help you preserve your hair. Some of the important ones from Ayurveda for the hair are: –

 

AYURVEDIC MEDICINES FOR HAIRFALL

Bringharaj

Bringha is one of the most common yet the most effective hair care plant. Bringha can be used by processing the plant in Coconut Oil for use in the summer season (for cooling effect) and in Sesame oil for use in the winter season.

Amla

Amla or the Indian Gooseberry is very effect to treat hair fall and in greying of the hairs. Amla is also a natural immunity booster and is one of the few foods which balance all three Tridosas. Amla also contains all six tastes and is highly rated amongst ayurvedic practitioners.

Amla, like Bringha is processed in coconut oil and applied on the hair to prevent hair fall. Multiple brands have come with their own brand of amla hair all. Almost all of them are available at Ayurcentral

Shikkakai

An herb with great dirt removing qualities, Shikkakai is filled with anti-oxidants and its application to the hair in form of powder is an alternative to shampoo.  Shikkakai is also very effective in reducing hair fall.

Coconut Oil

Though largely used as base oil to infuse goodness of other herbs, Coconut Oil in itself is an amazing product which can be regularly massaged on to the scalp for a healthy hair.

Aloe Vera

Regular application of Aloe Vera gel on the scalp will cool the scalp and help reduce hair fall.

Licorice

A mixture of crushed and juiced Licorice and milk can be applied on the bald patch to get the lost hair and to try and activate dead hair follicles.

Apart from the above mentioned there are multiple products from Ayurveda which help prevent hair fall and promote hair growth even in patches which have gone bald.

CONCLUSION

Ayurveda has a well laid out system to treat hair fall. In this system there is scope to prevent hair fall, increase hair density and to bring back to life the dead follicle. Hence Ayurveda can be very useful in hair fall treatments.

All kinds of products for hair fall are available on www.ayurcentralonline.com in the Hair health section.

THE AYURVEDIC SYSTEM AS EXPLAINED BY SADHGURU

Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev is a yogi, mystic and guru who has mastered yoga and runs an ashram, Isha Yoga Centre at Coimbatore which attracts millions of seekers from around the world. In his satsangs Sadhguru has explained the significance of the different medicinal systems. Sadhguru considers Ayurveda as the better system compared to Allopathy.

Sadhguru acknowledges the importance of allopathy as the best system in handling diseases occurring due to the infections caused by pathogens. He also appreciated the ability of allopathy to swiftly deal with emergency situations where there is no time for the patient to recover. So for life threatening and emergency situations like the victim of a severe accident, allopathy can do him the most good within the limited amount of time.

ALLOPATHY VS AYURVEDA

A majority of the diseases that occur in human beings are not from pathogen infections or accidents, a predominant majority of illness are self-generated due to bad lifestyle, unhealthy eating habits etc. and don’t actually demand time bound action for recovery. Comparing Allopathy and Ayurveda, a joyous Sadhguru quoted “If you are really in a state of emergency, going to an Ayurvedic doctor is not the best thing to do. You go to him only when you have time to recover. In an emergency, Allopathy has better systems than any other. But when your problems are mild and you know they are evolving, Ayurveda and other systems are very effective means of treatment.”

Ayurveda originates from an alternate dimension and comprehension of life. An essential piece of the Ayurvedic framework is about an understanding that our bodies are an aggregation of what we collected from the planet. The ideas of the planet and of the Pancha Bhutas or the five elements that make the planet are present in this physical body. It is significant that all that you do about this physical body has a relationship with the planet.

 

SCOPE FOR AYURVEDA

Sadhguru also appreciates Ayurveda for its holistic approach to understanding the human body.  “Ayurveda teaches us how to use every tree, plant and bark as medicines, a lot have been found and deciphered by our sages but a lot more is yet to be discovered” he said hinting that there is a lot more to discover and do research upon in Ayurveda

 

ON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EARTH AND HUMAN BODY

Sadhguru identifies a person with his soul and says ‘the human body grows in a soul from the Earth’. That is the physical body he says is generated from the nourishment provided by the earth. Hence when the body faces an illness it is best to look to things on earth like plants for the cure and not to those who extract chemicals from earth. “When there is a major repair in your car, it is best to go to the manufacturer than the local mechanic” he compares. The essence of Ayurveda is that all of us are manufactured by the earth and all the solutions to our problems will also come from the earth.

 

ON OTHER INDIAN SYSTEMS

Sadhguru considers Siddha systems and Yoga to be the best systems to stay healthy and immune to diseases but Siddha works only when combined with Sadhana (meditation) and Yoga in itself is a physical practice.

Yet to the credits of Sage Agasthya, the founder of Siddha system of medicine, he says inspite of being limited in the variety of herbs used Siddha system is the best to keep oneself healthy without any disease

AYURVEDA IS THE BEST MEDICINE

Siddha System is best for maintaining a good health but if a person is already ill Ayurveda is better to give him a cure. Ayurveda has also explored more herbs and plants than Siddha.

Siddha System can be successful only if the medicines are combined with Sadhana. Ayurveda has the potential to provide cure with the medicines alone and hence is the best system for the common man in todays world.

10 REASONS WHY AYURVEDA IS BETTER THAN MODERN MEDICINE

Ayurvedic doctors have cured many patients from varying backgrounds who were deemed incurable by doctors of Western medicine. The ancient Indian medicinal practice is today popular around the world for its simple, affordable and highly effective treatments. Ayurveda being a holistic and complete system of medicine and wellness has found comprehensive cures for many conditions like Asthma, Liver Cirrhosis, hair fall and Ageing for which allopathy medicines have no cures to date.

There are a lot of advantages which Ayurveda has over Western modern medicine. Here are the best ten arguments to prove the same.

1) AYURVEDA IS A COMPREHENSIVE CURE WHICH BALANCES THE BODY WHILE WESTERN MEDICINES ALMOST ALWAYS ONLY FOCUS ON SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT OR ONE DIMENSIONAL CURE

Western medications primarily focus on the symptoms and treat and cure the symptoms without focusing on the overall balance of the body. A bacterial infection is treated with an anti-bacterial drug and no care taken to tackle the misbalance in the body caused by such powerful drugs.

An Ayurvedic Physician does not limit himself to treating a particular symptom, He goes on to examine the overall body composition of the patient, His spiritual orientation, mental conditions etc, to provide a comprehensive cure and restore balance in the human system.

2) MOST WESTERN MEDICINES ARE CHEMICALS WHILE EVERY AYURVEDIC DRUG IS A REJENUVATOR

Almost all ayurvedic medicines act as a tonic nourishing the brain which triggers restorative properties. This in turn clears the psychological, emotional and mental imbalances along with the physical nourishment. This is possible because all ingredients are natural occurring and there is not chemical intervention in the manufacturing process.

Most western medicines on the other hand are lab manufactured chemicals which are designated to act on certain aspects of the body, which might be beneficial for that purpose but will leave an imbalance elsewhere and a very few drug in western medicine can be repurposed for other use because it will be made up of just that one or two component but most ayurvedic drugs are tonic like and multi-purpose ones which always look to restore the balance of the body.

 

3) AYURVEDA IS A WAY OF LIFE HENCE FOCUS ON COMPATIBILITY OF FOOD

Practitioners of western medicine will hardly tell u watch out for your diet, the concepts of seasonal foods etc. are still nascent. The focus of doctors will only be on the treatment for the visible or lab detected symptoms

Compatibility of food is given a lot of importance in Ayurveda. Balancing the six tastes, balancing cooling and heating foods and balancing the Tridosas are all taken care of and hence most doctors of Ayurveda suggest a total dietary regime rather than mere prescriptions. If just prescriptions are given, the medicines will be designed in a way to complement one’s dietary regime. This is also (but not only) the reason why two patients with the same disorders get different prescriptions in Ayurveda.

4) AYURVEDA TREATS ALL DISEASES AS PYSCHO-SOMATIC DISORDER WHILE WESTERN MEDICINE SEES ALL PHYSICAL ILLNESS INDEPENDENT OF THE MENTAL STATE

 

Only Ayurvedic practitioners will understand the pyscho-somatic nature of all diseases, attempts will be made to find the link between the physical illness, the mental situation of the patient and his spiritual levels and the treatment will complement it.

 

5) AYURVEDA IS A SIMPLE AND AFFORDABLE YET EFFECTIVE CURE, WESTERN MEDICAL TREATMENTS ARE MOST OF TIME TOO HEAVY ON THE PATIENTS POCKETS

No one has ever gone below poverty by paying bills in an Ayurveda facility. There will rarely be a situation when ayurvedic doctors ask people to compulsorily visit them periodically.

Western medical system is the biggest reason why middle class families go to below poverty line in India. Most drugs are overpriced; treatments are out of the reach for an average person and most modern equipments in hospitals require regular management and patients on many occasional are forced to use them regularly. Anyways it is not about the nexus, it is about cost. The bottom-line is Ayurveda is way cheaper than western medicine.

 

6) AYURVEDA IS HAS A PROVEN HISTORY, IT HAS WORKED FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS

Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita are more than 1500 years old and both authors claim most of their treatments to have existed long before they documented. Ayurveda is definitely one of the oldest continuously practiced medical systems which has cured humanity of illness throughout history

 

7) MANY AYURVEDIC MEDICINES HAVE STOOD THE TEST OF SCRUTINY FROM SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

Many other Ayurvedic treatments are even older yet scientific research has time and again proven the efficiency of many Ayurvedic herbs. Ayurvedic Staples like Indian Gooseberry (Amla), Wintercherry (Ashwagandha ), Aloevera and Tinospora Cordifolia (Guducci) have been researched and most of their benefits listed in Ayurvedic texts have been authenticated.

 

8) AYURVEDA AS A SYSTEM ALWAYS FOCUSES ON IMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT

Ayurvedic medicines focus on enhancing the immunity system in the body and in increasing its capacity and quality and not merely triggering it to react against a pathogen.

 

9) WESTERN MEDICINES ARE TOTALLY DISCONNECTED TO SPIRITUAL HEALTH, AYURVEDIC TREATMENTS ARE BIOLOGICAL AND SPIRITUAL

The scope of spiritual welfare is out of syllabus for modern medicine. Ayurveda has laid down mechanism to aid the spiritual process.

10) THIS MAKES AYURVEDA THE MOST COMPLETE SYSTEM OF MEDICINE

A lot of dimensions of the human being like consciousness, spiritual levels and even mental conditions are not taken to consideration at all in modern medicine. Ayurvedic system apart from these also considers the environment and body composition and other factors. Ayurveda personalizes the treatment for every individual according to his body composition, climate, environment, mental condition and spiritual level. Doesn’t that sound cool?

Which system is better? The decision is yours to make.

Switch to Ayurveda and live an enriched and blissful life.

WHY ALCOHOL TRIGGERS A MIGRAINE?

Many people believe that alcohol is a trigger for migraine. Although there are not too many studies that prove the fact, experts believe that if a person is prone to migraine, drinking even a small amount of alcohol can give an attack.

 

In studies across different countries, about one-third of the migraine sufferers reported alcohol as a migraine trigger, if not on a regular basis but at least occasionally. In these studies, only 10% reported a frequent link.

LINK BETWEEN ALCOHOL AND MIGRAINE

Migraine is a neurological condition that manifests in multiple symptoms. The most common one is an intense, debilitating headache along with or without nausea and vomiting. While migraines can be hereditary, it can affect all ages but women are more likely than men to get migraines. Many things can trigger a migraine such as stress, weather changes, and foods like aged cheese, and also alcohol.

It is said that either alcohol or alcohol byproducts called congeners are linked to headaches. Dark-coloured alcohols like red wine, brandy, and whiskey may contain more of congeners. Hence, they may have more chances of triggering migraine.

Studies that shown that red wine, but not white wine and sparkling wines, triggered headache in about 30% of the people, who participated in the studies. Lower quality wines have higher chances of causing headaches due to the presence of molecules known as phenolic flavonoid radicals. These phenolic flavonoid radicals react with serotonin, a molecule in the brain that signals migraine. However, in some studies, even spirits and sparkling wines were associated with migraines significantly.

Alcohol also contains a chemical called histamine, which can also stimulate our immune system to make more histamine. This boosts inflammation in our body.

The main ingredient of alcohol, that is, a chemical called ethanol, once gets into our system, gets converted into a chemical that triggers migraine. Ethanol is also a natural diuretic, which makes you pee more than normal. All these lead to migraine.

 

Alcohol and two types of headaches

Alcohol can cause two different kinds of migraine headaches. The first type is the headache you get within 30 minutes to 3 hours of drinking. You don’t have to drink a large amount to get this type of migraine. Some people may just sip a glass or two of wine and start getting a throbbing headache.

The second type is when you get the headache the next morning after you drink. This is when your blood alcohol level returns to normal. This is called delayed alcohol-induced headache (DAIH). This type of headache can happen to any drinker, and not necessarily people with migraines, although they are more prone to get them.

What can be done?

Drinking a small amount of alcohol is good for the health as it lowers the risk of heart diseases, as well as ischemic stroke. This is a type of stroke that happens when a blood vessel gets blocked and blood fails to reach your brain.

 

But if you have chronic migraine problem, then that small amount of alcohol can give you headache. For such people a glass of wine occasionally may be ok. If it still gets you headache, then the only solution is to stay away from alcohol completely.

If you want to be sure which type of alcohol is giving you the headache, each time you drink, write down the type of alcohol you had, the amount, and if and when you have a migraine. This way you will know which alcohol you need to avoid and how often you should have alcohol.

Make sure that you do not drink of an empty stomach. Have alcohol with a meal or with snacks. This may lower the chances of getting a migraine.

Don’t drink when you are stressed. Stress and alcohol have higher risk of migraine headaches.

Sip your drink in moderation and slowly.

Adding your alcohol with fruit or vegetable juices helps because fructose, the naturally occurring sugar from fruits, helps to balance the body’s chemical back to normal after alcohol is consumed.

If you have alcoholic drink along with non-alcoholic beverages, it not only minimize alcohol consumption, but will also help to keep you hydrated. For example, have a glass of water after you have a glass of wine or other types of alcohol.

Have two tablespoons of honey before you drink alcohol. Honey also supplies fructose and is rich in vitamin B6, which helps to reduce hangover symptoms.

 

Have greasy food before drinking alcohol. Greasy foods help to line the intestines that will help the alcohol absorption take longer

A PLETHORA OF BEAUTY BENEFITS OF BRIHATRI ALOE VERA GEL

The thorny green aloe vera plant is truly a blessing to mankind. One of the most important plants used for medicinal purposes, the aloe vera leaves contain clear healing gel that is 96% water, and the other 4 percent contains vitamins like A, B, C, and E. It also contains calcium, amino acids that are needed for protein building, and enzymes required for the digestive system. Aloe vera gel is an embodiment of versatility that showcases its miraculous impacts in flawless radiant skin and strong shiny tresses. Numerous makeup brands have used the miracle concocted aloe vera gel for their skin and hair products.

 

Benefits of aloe vera gel’s external application

Heal wounds: Aloe vera gel has the ability to prevent injury to epithelial tissues—the layer of cells that covers the body. It also promotes healing of injured tissues. Aloe vera gel soothes a variety of skin ailments like mild cuts, insect stings, bruises, poison ivy and eczema. Its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal qualities increase blood flow to wounded areas. Aloe vera gel stimulates fibroblasts—the skin cells responsible for wound healing and also manufacture collagen, the protein that controls the aging process of the skin and wrinkling.

Moisturizes the skin: The skin absorbs aloe vera up to four times faster than water. Aloe vera gel helps the pores of the skin to open up and absorb the moisture and nutrients of the plant. Since aloe vera gel is rich in water content, it facilitates hydration, rejuvenates and nourishes the skin.

Soothes sunburn: Aloe vera’s anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties help to cure sunburn and inflammation of the skin. It alleviates the redness, and scavenges the harmful free radicals, thereby protecting the skin from the damage caused by the harmful UV rays.

Soothes psoriasis flare-ups: By applying aloe vera gel several times daily reduces redness, scaling, and itching inflammation due to mild to moderate psoriasis. It may take a month or more to see the results.

Eczema: The moisturizing effects of aloe vera helps alleviate dry, itchy skin caused by eczema. Aloe vera gel also helps to alleviate seborrheic dermatitis, the oily form of eczema.

Fights acne: Aloe vera gel has salicylic acid that can unclog pores and acts as an anti-inflammatory on acne-producing oil glands. Aloe vera’s anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help in fighting oily, clogged pores. Its polysaccharides stimulate the growth of new cells.

Delays signs of ageing: An antioxidant, aloe vera aids in combating free radicals, which eventually helps to slow the aging process of the skin. As aloe vera has anti-aging effects on the skin, it improves collagen production and skin elasticity. Aloe vera also contains vitamins, phyto-nutrients, amino acids and malic acid, and all these improve the skin’s elasticity.

Reduces blemishes, scars and stretch marks: The anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, astringent and antiseptic properties of aloe vera gel aids in reducing scars and blemishes. If aloe vera gel is applied regularly during pregnancy, it can minimize the stretch marks.

Frostbite and cold sores: It is found that aloe vera gel can treat frostbite and cold sores. Cold sores develop on the outside of our mouth. Aloe vera cures herpes virus, which causes cold sores.

COVID-19 PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT WITH KABASURA KUDINEER

The present pandemic is projected by the media as a deadly one with no way out in the visible future but the doctors from India’s indigenous systems have maintained that it is possible to prevent, treat and even cure if the illness is identified early enough (non-severe patients) with these ancient medicinal systems. One such COVID-19 management drug widely floated by the practitioners of Siddha medicines is Kabasura Kudineer.

Siddha System of medicines traces their lineage from the ancients Siddhas (Mystical Sages) of Tamil Nadu. Even during the earlier Nipha Outbreak in Southern India, Nilavembu Kudineer from the Siddha System played a major role in its prevention.

Kabasura Kudineer is a traditional formulation used by Siddha practitioners to cure fever, dry and wet cough, cold, flu and other common respiratory ailments.

 

Kabasura Kudineer possesses strong anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-oxidant, liver-protective, anti-pyretic, anti-asthmatic and immunomodulatory properties. Hence it can help reduce swelling in air passages and cure fever and dry cough.

 

Kabasura Kudineer literally means ‘Water that balances Kapha”, this is administered to diseases which occur due to the aggravation of Kapha. Like Ayurveda, Siddha system also classifies the diseases based on Tridosas -Vata, Pitta and Kapha. The three can be loosely associated but not limited to “Circulation of the air (Vata), the functioning of the bile (Pitta) and secretion of mucus (Kapha)”. 

 

RISE AS A COVID PREVENTION DRINK

In the last week of March when India announced a nationwide lockdown for the first time, an association of Siddha doctors in Tamil Nadu recommended Kabasura Kudineer for COVID-19 management.

Since then Kabasura Kudineer is administered alongside mainstream medicines for most COVID-19 patients with the blessings of the Government of Tamil Nadu. The Health ministry of Tamil Nadu has retained hopes on the Siddha concoction till date.

An AYUSH ministry circular stating guidelines for Siddha practitioners for COVID-19 prevention also recommends consumption of Kabasura Kudineer twice a day.

SUPPORT FROM THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY

The Times of India on April 24, 2020, reported that Chennai based researchers have by scientific research proved that the ingredients in Kabasura Kudineer has the potential to cure Covid-19.

This is oversimplified yet, Phyto-compounds of up to Nine (9) ingredients used in Kabasura Kudineer act like a molecule binding itself to the spike protein of the virus. This prevents the virus from binding with the receptor proteins in human cells which act as a doorway for the virus to enter our body.

Since then Central Council for Research in Siddha (CCSR) and many other groups have commenced scientific researches on the efficiency of Kabasura Kudineer for prevention of COVID-19.

 

INGREDIENTS AND THEIR BENEFITS

Kabasura Kudineer is a mixture of 15 ingredients. All the ingredients are dried, powdered and mixed in a specific proportion as laid down by the ancient Siddhars thousands of years ago.

PREPARING THE DECOCTION

Five grams of the Kabasura Kudineer powder is mixed with 250-300ml of water and boiled to at least one-fourth of the original. The preparation is distilled and consumed immediately for best results.

TAKE AWAY

Many pieces of research are underway to test and scientifically establish Kabasura Kudineer as a cure for Covid-19. In the southern Indian State of Tamil Nadu, volunteer groups and political parties have even started mass distribution of the decoction as a preventive measure. Kabasura Kudineer is also administered to COVID positive patients in the state alongside allopathic medicines.

AVAILABILITY

The Ingredients of the powder are all locally available in South India. Hence production and supply are adequate.

Kabasura Kudineer powder is available in Ayurcentral stores all across Bangalore.
