I'm struggling with IBS for the past five years. I've tried everything and gone through almost all the tests, but nothing seems to help. I'm curious to know if Ayurveda offers a permanent cure for this and how long it might take. I'm open to following any diet. Living in Bangalore, my life has become unbearable with this condition, and I really need some guidance on the treatment options available. Can you help?

Ayurveda can be a beneficial complementary approach for managing IBS symptoms, and some patients have reported significant relief; in Bangalore, you can consult Ayurvedic hospitals like SDM College of Ayurveda or AyurVAID, which offer personalized treatment plans, including dietary modifications, herbal supplements, and Panchakarma therapies, with treatment duration varying from 3-6 months to 1-2 years, depending on individual responses and severity of symptoms.

View allI'm dealing with hyperacidity and GERD for the past couple of years and have been on PPI meds for about a year and a half. I've tried different PPIs and regularly see my gastroenterologist, but my symptoms always seem to come back just a week or two after stopping the meds. Is taking PPI the only way to treat this, or are there other options I could consider?

I'm trying to understand what it means to have grade I fatty liver. Should I be worried about it? I already saw a doctor and did all the tests, but he didn't prescribe any medication. Instead, he suggested I cut down on fatty foods, lose some weight, and come back in three months. Does this mean it's not that serious? Could lifestyle changes really make a difference, and should I be doing anything else in the meantime?
Grade I fatty liver does not cause symptoms and can be reversible with lifestyle changes. Your doctor's advice to reduce fat content in food, lose weight, and follow up after three months is appropriate for managing Grade I fatty liver. It is important to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, engage in regular physical activity, and achieve gradual weight loss if overweight or obese. There is no specific medication recommended for Grade I fatty liver, as lifestyle modifications are the mainstay of treatment
