Indigestion / Poor Metabolism

That uncomfortable fullness after eating doesn't need to follow you all day.

Indigestion—characterized by gas, bloating, or sluggish digestion—can leave you feeling exhausted and unfocused. At BookMyAyurveda.com, our global Ayurvedic consultations combine age-old Asian healing wisdom with modern lifestyle strategies to help reset your digestion and metabolism naturally. No more relying on quick fixes—just gentle, long-term support rooted in holistic healing.

Indigestion, or dyspepsia, manifests as discomfort, heartburn, bloating, excessive belching, or a lingering fullness—especially after meals. Modern research links it to low digestive capacity, stress, poor diet, and imbalanced gut flora. In Ayurveda, indigestion arises from weakened Agni—your digestive fire. When Agni falters (known as Agnimandya), food cannot be properly broken down, leading to the buildup of toxins called Ama. Vata imbalance leads to sluggish gut movement, while high Pitta creates excessive acid and inflammation—both contributing to impaired digestion and slowed metabolism.

Key Symptoms:

• Bloating or tightness after eating
• Gas, belching, or burping
• Burning or aching in the upper abdomen
• Early fullness or slow digestion
• Fatigue, weak appetite, or irregular weight changes

Chronic indigestion signals deeper imbalance—it weakens your nutrient absorption, vitality, and overall well-being.

Ayurveda takes a layered approach—first strengthening Agni, then clearing Ama, and finally restoring balance to the doshas. Healing begins with an individualized plan based on your Prakriti and current digestive state.

Gentle digestive stimulants called Deepana-Pachana are used to re-kindle Agni: ginger, cumin, and black pepper in teas or decoctions initiate gradual metabolic repair. Herbs such as Triphala and Musta support mild cleansing of toxins while regulating both digestion and metabolism.

Ayurveda also recommends Panchakarma detox routines—like Virechana (therapeutic purging)—which regulate bile, reset digestive rhythm, and assist metabolic balance. With these herbal and procedural supports, the gut lining becomes resilient, inflammation reduces, and nutrient processing improves.

Ayurvedic wisdom emphasizes lifestyle alignment for sustainable gut health:

Diet & Hydration:

Eat freshly cooked meals—like porridge, soups, steamed veggies—with digestive spices (turmeric, cumin, fennel). Avoid cold, processed, oily, or fried foods. Sip warm water or herbal teas between meals to soothe digestion.

Mindful Eating Habits:

Chew thoroughly, eat in calm settings, maintain consistent meal times, and avoid late-night eating to nurture Agni.

Movement & Stress Relief:

Gentle movement—post-meal walks and yoga poses like Trikonasana or Kapotasana—stimulate digestion. Stress-relief techniques such as pranayama, Abhyanga (self-massage), and meditation calm the mind-gut axis.

These consistent, simple routines help maintain digestive warmth, reduce Ama buildup, and support a healthy metabolism.
