Hepatitis Ayurvedic Treatment

Hepatitis is a liver derangement caused due to inflammation of the liver tissue. Hepatitis B is caused due to infestation with hepatitis virus B (HBV). The hepatitis B may be of acute or chronic form and may affect in a mild or severe form.

Ayurveda sees liver disorders primarily as a consequence of aggravated pitta (Toxin accumulation). Toxins are accumulated due to intensified use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, high levels of stress associated with suburban and urban lifestyle. Stress seems to aggravate the risk of hepatitis. We are all made up of 3 elements known as doshas. These are

  • Air and space (Vata dosha), which permits movement
  • Fire and water (Pitta dosha), which allows transformation and is accountable for digestion and metabolism
  • Water and earth (Kapha dosha), which gives structure or cohesion

Ayurveda makes use of herbs prevalent in nature and formulates herbal remedies using the inherent power present in them. These amalgamations are helpful in ameliorating immunity and fortitude.

With the assistance of herbs, patient’s vitality is restored, infections caused by viruses and bacteria are relieved and the liver is strengthened in nature inspired way. According to Ayurveda, the night is divided into three periods, each dominated by the characteristics of a separate dosha.

Arising early in the morning yields more energy and going to bed past midnight causes less sound sleep. People with pitta imbalance should abstain themselves from daytime naps to assure more unflustered nighttime sleep.

Avoiding anger and stress is important in taking the edge off pitta, which can be mollified by relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation.
