Gut Heaviness & Sluggish Bowels

पेट का भारीपन व आंतों की सुस्ती
Classical Ayurvedic Term: Koshtha Gourava (कोष्ठ गौरव)
bowl Digestive & Abdominal System Mild / Early Stage Dosha: Kapha-Ama

Presence of unassimilated digestive sludge (Ama) bogging down the digestive tract.

Classical Symptoms & Signs

  • Sluggish metabolism

Dosha & Srotas Physiology

This condition stems primarily from an aggravation of Kapha-Ama, affecting the functional channels of the Digestive & Abdominal System.

Easily digestible warm meals, boiled lukewarm water, green gram (moong dal), seasonal bitter greens, moderate cow ghee, and regular meal timing.

⚠️ Apathya (Foods & Triggers to Avoid)

Excessive chilies and pungent spices, heavy deep-fried items, stale/refrigerated foods, ice-cold water, daytime sleep, and late-night meals.
