Gastric

Gastric Problems (Adhmana) in Ayurveda What is Gastric Trouble in Ayurveda? In Ayurveda, gastric problems, such as bloating, indigestion, and gas formation, are caused by an imbalance of Vata dosha and weak digestive fire (Agni). When digestion is impaired, food remains undigested, leading to toxin (Ama) buildup in the intestines, causing discomfort.
