PANCREATITIS - AN OVERVIEW

Pancreas is a small yet significant organ located behind the stomach that largely contributes to your body’s digestion. It secretes hormones and enzymes (amylase, lipase, insulin and glucagon) to break down carbs, fats and sugar from your intake. These enzymes are emptied into the small intestine where secondary digestion happens. Problems arise when the composition in the pancreas changes, or if there’s a blockage in their course to the small intestine.

The powerful enzymes, nowhere to go, start attacking the pancreas. Digestion is messed up, nutrients are excreted, and toxins are absorbed. Sugar levels aren’t regulated, fats aren’t broken down, and so all organs face danger. If no intervention is made immediately, it may prove to be fatal, as the condition affects one organ after another. `

Ayurveda says pancreatitis is caused by a toxic imbalance between the Vata and Pitta doshas, brought by obesity, a fat-rich diet, chain-smoking, alcohol abuse, and in some cases gallbladder stones, autoimmune diseases, pancreatic injury, chronic inflammation and diabetes. Pancreatitis (Agnyasaya Shotha) is a dangerous disease and so, if you face any prolonged abdominal pain, foul-smelling stool, jaundice, nausea, unusual weight loss and chronic weakness, talk to us right away.

HOW AYURVEDA CURES PANCREATITIS?

Ayurveda works on the principle of Ahar (a balanced and nutritious diet), Vihar (a regulated lifestyle) and Aushadh (herbo-mineral formulations). This trifecta works wonders and reverses damages inflicted on your pancreas, thus curing an otherwise dangerous disease like pancreatitis, in a pain-free manner. Ayurvedic protocol helps in managing imbalances and restoring homeostasis in the body.
