Cholesterol Management
Lower Cholesterol, Lift Your Life with Ayurveda.
What is Cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a wax-like substance essential for hormone production, digestion, and cell repair; however, when LDL (“bad”) cholesterol rises or HDL (“good”) cholesterol drops, fatty deposits build up in the arteries, increasing the risk of hypertension, heart attacks, and stroke. Modern medicine often relies on statins to control lipid levels, yet these drugs do not address the underlying metabolic imbalance. At Kaivalya Ayurveda, we focus on balancing lipids naturally—supporting heart health while improving overall metabolism.
Ayurvedic View of Cholesterol Imbalance
Ayurveda relates elevated cholesterol to Meda Dhatu Vriddhi (excess fat tissue) and Kapha aggravation, often compounded by sluggish Agni (digestive fire) and accumulated toxins (Ama) that clog the circulatory channels (Rakta Vaha Srotas). Restoring sharp digestion, clearing Ama, and pacifying Kapha are therefore central to healthy lipid management. At Kaivalya Ayurveda, we begin every treatment plan with a doshic assessment, ensuring therapies match the patient’s constitution (Prakriti) and specific lipid profile.
Causes of High Cholesterol
From an Ayurvedic standpoint, diets rich in deep-fried, sugary, and heavy foods, overeating, irregular meal times, lack of exercise, chronic stress, and inadequate sleep slow down Agni and allow Kapha and Ama to accumulate. Modern factors—such as processed foods, smoking, alcohol, and a sedentary lifestyle—further compound the problem. Our practitioners at Kaivalya Ayurveda examine both lifestyle and emotional triggers to craft a root-cause-oriented plan for healthy cholesterol balance.
Ayurvedic Treatment for Cholesterol Management
Our approach combines gentle detoxification, metabolism-boosting herbs, and sustainable lifestyle changes. Udwarthana (herbal powder massage) and Virechana (therapeutic purgation) are employed to clear Ama and excess Kapha. Internal formulations like Guggulu Tikta Ghrita, Arjuna, Triphala Guggulu, and Lasuna (garlic) capsules aid in fat metabolism and arterial cleansing. A personalized sat-minded diet—rich in whole grains, seasonal fruits, warm water, and digestive spices—is prescribed to support optimal Agni. Regular yoga asanas, brisk walking, and breathing techniques ensure long-term cardiovascular resilience. Under the guidance of Dr. Subodh Chaturvedi and our Kaivalya team, patients receive a balanced plan that addresses cholesterol at its source—without reliance on lifelong medication.
