Question

I've been having some concerns lately about my digestion. Over the past few days, I've noticed undigested food in my stoolthings like brown rice, pineapples, and papayas. Along with that, I've been dealing with mild abdominal cramps and somewhat solid stools. It's frustrating because I often feel the urge to go, but then nothing really happens. Sometimes, I even see mucus and fat in there too. Could this be IBS? I'm also wondering if it's necessary to get a colonoscopy or endoscopy at my ageI'm 28 and physically active. There's no blood in my stool, but I'm worried about these other symptoms. What do you think?

Question

I've been waking up with small blood spots in my spit, and sometimes there's pink mucus. I was diagnosed with antral gastritis after an endoscopy. My HR CT scans of the neck and chest came back normal. I also deal with acid reflux. The first time I noticed blood, it was after a day of vomiting on an empty stomach, really forceful stuff. An ENT specialist mentioned a tear in my throat might be the cause, and after a while, the bleeding stopped. But now, two months later, it's happening again. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

I'm curious about eating fresh coconut. Could it potentially lead to indigestion or even gastritis? I've always thought coconuts were good for you, so I'm a bit worried. Would love to understand if I should be careful with them.

Question

I've been dealing with ulcerative colitis since 2013, and I'm really struggling to find something that works. I've been on medication for the past three years but haven't seen any improvement. I even tried homeopathy for a year, but that didn't help either. Do you think Ayurveda might be able to cure this disease? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
