Ayurvedic Herbs for Weight Management
From an Ayurvedic perspective, it is more effective, and holistic, to focus on lifestyle adjustments than weight-loss fads. And while there are many products on the market that claim to be fat burning supplements that will help you lose weight, we at Banyan seek to promote healthy lifestyle changes enhanced and supported by Ayurvedic practices, including Ayurvedic herbs. Herbs offer valuable systemic support. They aid in digestion, detoxification, and other metabolic processes. Diet is a major component in weight management and Ayurveda beautifully offers some diet guidelines to best suit your unique prakriti and vikriti. If you are unsure of your special constitution or your current state of being, our Ayurvedic Profile™ quiz is a great place to start. And because knowledge is power, you will be able to incorporate self-knowledge into personal power. Then you’re off to the races!
Why Herbs are Effective
Herbs are an effective component of weight management because they help to support the body’s natural functions as a whole. Our bodies are innately intelligent. And a plant’s intelligence only adds to the body’s natural capacities. Triphala is a classic Ayurvedic formula that aids in the detoxification, assimilation, and rejuvenation of the digestive tract. It supports regular elimination and regeneration of tissues, being naturally high in Vitamin C. Amalaki and haritaki are two of the fruits in triphala and they can be taken together or on their own. Amalaki is considered a rejuvenative for pitta whereas haritaki is especially good for vata. Bibhitaki is the third fruit in the formula and is stellar at rejuvenating and detoxifying kapha. Triphala, the three fruits together, is considered tridoshic. Punarnava is another supportive herb for weight management and is particularly balancing for kapha. Punarnava supports the heart’s function, as well as the liver and kidneys. Together with a healthy diet best suited for your dosha and some gentle lifestyle practices, you are sure to achieve your health goals.
