How to increase B12 in body?

Views shared by several ayurveda doctors in discussion group:

 

Sub.:   How to increase B12 in body?

- Can it be by mixture of Ashwagandha & Satavari powder?

- Personally I suggest 'saragavo' (moringa) . I read somewhere that saragavo contains B12 most in all vegetables.

- Papaya, barley, walnut, wheat germ, drumstick leaves are sources. However best is yeast. In olden days alcohol factories used to convert their yeast containing slurry into tablets and sell at a nominal cost of 25/1Re. Drug companies opposed this as non standardized medicine and forced government to ban the yeast tablets.  Same fate as Ayurveda is facing. All our asava and arishta therefore have self generated vitamins. Our curd also is reach in yeast content. How market forces make us fools! Probiotic curd. Stupidity at its highest peak.

- Even pumpkin skin has maximum of B-12

- Indian Cow's (desi) ghee and its milk contains maximum amount of B-12. All Allopathic derivatives of B-12 are extracted from slaughter house. What an Irony???? Cut the cow to find B-12 and don't drink milk ... it may be called non vegetarian.

- I have tried for liver tonic in all my patients as Faltrikadi kwath and another liver tonic medication, I got B12 increased

- 1) banana bark 2) fermentation of boiled rice and curd (very delicious)in refrigerator are good sources of B12...

- The outer layer of unpolished rice contains good source of vitamin b12.I hv taken  results with Guduchi  also.

Why monkeys eat red shoe flowers (jasud) a lot.

Views shared by several ayurveda doctors in discussion group:

 

Sub.:  Why monkeys eat red shoe flowers (jasud or Hibiscus) a lot.  What properties of jasud prompts them?

- It is a myth Or reality i dont know But jasud can lead to ovulation failure and can control Population. At the same time i wonder what the contraceptive method was being used by Lord  RAMA that instead of living 13 yrs. In vanvas they were not having child. Was it jasud? It is ancient truth that rama was not having child for 13 yrs. He might have learned this from monkeys or vanvasis.

- As we see whole ramayan there are so many things about Gynecology. Ram was born after treatment to dasrath and putreshti yagna. And birth of sita was also different.

-  Japakusum as a herbal contraceptive drug already work is published

How to control increased Uric acid level and treatment of Gout

Views shared by several ayurveda doctors in discussion group:

Sub.: How to control increased Uric acid level and treatment of Gout

- Handful of Silk Corn (Maize Hair) boiled in cupful water for 2 minutes and filtered. Take it empty stomach everyday in the morning. Good results in just 10 days.

- Gorakhmundi is used in cardiac debility, "gout", erysipelas, edema, lymphadenitis, chronic bronchitis and asthma. It's a Choice of drug 4 High Uric acid levels....Gorakhmundi (Sphaeranthus indicus)

- Combination of guduchi + gokhsura + yastimadhu... nicely helps to reduce the uric acid levels  in chronic condition... We can also use amrita guggul with this in acute stage

- In acute stage of gout where pain, burning and severe tenderness are present, Raktamokshana is the best....One of my patient diagnosed with gout had typical symptoms of gout like pain, severe burning and tenderness at Lt. Toe...trouble in walking..can't sleep at night...After raktamokshana at local site (toe) about 90% relief in all above symptoms..just with one sitting of Rakta-mokshana

- Atasi lepam is good for pain management

- Some work has been done on kokilaksh.  It shows uric acid lowering properties And Guduchi  too is widely used (In various forms)

- No any better medicine than  guduchyadi kwath with erand oil..in vatarakta (gout)

- Sanshamani vati and Chandra prabhavati both are result giving medicines

- In high uric acid-   guduchi churna + mahasudarshan churna + bhringraj churna apply with phant vidhi 2 times empty stomach.

- I have heard about  Cherry fruit(red) is very ifective in 'GOUT'. Take 6 nos. Cherry, three times a day for 3 to 5 days.It gives good results to reduce serum creatine as well as blood uric acid.

- To control uric acid one should not allowed to have milk and milk products,  beans,  rice and rice products.  And ask the patient to eat if possible bottle gaurd,  pumpkin, bitter gaurd and roti.

- In modern science,  'colchicine' as a prime drug in gout...Chopachini and Langali also contains colchicine...both herb can be given...

- nimbamritadi erandan, kaiser guggulu,  kokilaksh kashay, avipattikar churna ,yashtimadhu churna,
shallaki are good for immediately releive pain
- pinda taila for ext. application, kshirabala taila orally, kshira basti with yashti taila anuvasan is good in chronic case

Ayurveda Doctors facing problems in India

A movement has started from Teachers Association, Institute of Post Graduate Teaching & Research in Ayurved, Gujarat Ayurved University, Jamnagar 361 008, regarding demoralization of Ayurvedic community by promoting non-Ayurvedic persons on leading Ayurvedic positions. Many a times, for key posts in AYUSH Department and/ or Ayurvedic institutions, a person without having basic background and understanding of the AYUSH systems are appointed. It is not justifiable by any means that a person from allied sciences is appointed on such key post.

We wish to have your support to this movement. For more detail sharing, pl email to info@ayulink.com

Traveling to India for Ayurveda - 10 suggestions

Traveling to India for Ayurveda - 10 suggestions

Most ayurveda lovers and tourists visit India during September to February every year. The purpose of the visit is to learn ayurveda, to get ayurvedic - panchkarma treatments, to relax, and to have some leisure time with joy with local sight seeing. There are thousands of websites offering various courses, treatments and claiming for the best quality. There is no specific standardized method to select proper center for the tourist. Our best suggestion is for ayurveda visitors to follow this basic things;

1. Decide your travel period first, avoid monsoon.

2. Decide the region, you want to visit in India. India is such a vast country and having very different climatic, social conditions. Such as South and North India are very different. East or West are also different from others. Try to explore new regions, where most tourists don't go, this way you can avoid overcrowded centers. Remember Ayurveda is in all corners of India. It does not belong to any one region, one tradition or one family. You can find good, genuine ayurveda doctors and centers all over India.

3. Real India lies in villages. Big cities and small towns also reflect mixed impression of India. Ask your tour operator to include visit to real village, forest, riverside etc.

4. Contact yr selected ayurveda center and clearly know the facilities for accommodation, food, treatments, local traveling etc. before you finalize it.

5. Select your priority for panchkarma treatments. Your options are panchkarma for wellness or for real health problems (Therapeutic). Ask for daily treatment plan, training plan from the center, accordingly.

6. Most important: Inquire for the doctor's qualification, who is going to look after you. Many so called ayurveda spa/ resorts are not having any full time doctors with them, they are carrying their business with massage therapists.

7. Inquire for Total prices, including all other / supplementary expenses. Sometimes basic charge for treatments or training is less, but you pay more for additional / supportive facilities etc.

7. Inquire and decide for the mode of payment before you finalize the center.

8. Please select your priority first - Treatments / training or sight seeing. Many visitors can not control their wish to have all together, which is not good.

9. Take care for illness - epidemics. Prevent yourself from Malaria, G.I. Tract infection and related complains.

10. Inquire for local festivals, try to accommodate the dates with your visit, so that you can enjoy Indian traditions and social customs too.

Best wishes,

Dr. Prerak Shah www.ayulink.com
