Joint and Muscle Pain

July 7, 2012 at 7:55 pm · Filed under Remedies     

According to Ayurveda mostly Joint & Muscle pains are caused by the aggravation of vata (air) dosha. It is a condition which is caused by accumulation of ama and aggravation of vata. (Ama is a toxic by-product of improper digestion. )This ama circulates in the whole body and deposits or gets collected at the sites which are weaker. When it deposits in the joints and at the same time there is aggravation of vata , it results in a disease called  amavata that all results of Joint Pains.  



Symptoms

The main symptom of this disease is severe pain in the affected joints. The tissues in and around the joints become inflamed and movement of the joint becomes extremely painful. Untreated arthritis may lead to permanent deformity of the affected joints.

:: Infections – many infections cause aching joints and aching muscles
   – Viral infection
   – Common cold
   – Flu

Causes include both internal and external factors. Ama associated with Vata (internal moving body air) quickly moves to different parts of the body and accumulates where circulation is sluggish or slow such as the hands, knees and other bone joints filling the blood vessels with a waxy type material. It is also more common in old age when Vata naturally increases in the body. Meat diet, foods such as ice cream, to much concentrated dairy such as aged cheese or goods of sour cream or cheese with your meals, cold foods especially during cold weather which weaken the digestion, heavy cakes, pastries and candies, packaged and processed foods with little fiber are the main dietary causes. Gas producing vegetables and legumes also create more internal air which moves the toxins to different parts also the condition. This ama blocks tissue pores and passages. This causes heaviness and weakness of the heart which becomes the seat of the disease.

Other symptoms may be heaviness, aches, oily skin, congestion or mucus in the stool. Pain is relieved by heat or hot-dry weather. Best to live in a hot-dry climate and follow a Kapha diet.

Home remedies for Snoring

July 7, 2012 at 7:41 pm · Filed under Remedies     

The sound that occurs due to the vibration of soft palate, which relaxes when one sleeps is called snoring. Though snoring is not particularly harmful, except for the disturbance that it causes to the snorer and the people around, it could probably lead to serious sleep disorders like the Upper Respiratory Resistance Syndrome or Obstructive Sleep Apnea, wherein breathing could stop periodically while sleeping. 

Certain conditions like swelling of throat and nasal passages, colds, sinus infections and lifestyle factors such as obesity, smoking and alcohol could trigger snoring. Children have the tendency to snore when they have enlarged tonsils and adenoids. Middle aged men are more prone to snoring than women. Couple of remedies for snoring-
Sleeping on the side, by tucking a pillow into the back helps prevent snoring.

Stick a nasal adhesive strip across the soft part of the nose, just above nostrils prior to bed time. The plastic bands that are embedded in the adhesive pad, helps in tightening and lifting the sides of nose, while also maintaining airflow while sleeping.

Pour three to four drops of warm Brahmi ghee or plain ghee into each nostril in the morning and prior to bed time.
If overweight, try to lose weight through regular walks or any such exercise, which helps an obese person to breathe easily.
Take care to go to bed at a scheduled time every day to get adequate sleep.

Snorers should strictly avoid use of sleeping pills, sedative antihistamines or alcohol. Smoking should be strictly avoided, as it irritates the nasal and throat lining.
In case there is no relief from snoring by following any of the said methods, or if the pauses in breathing during sleep exceeds ten seconds, or in case the snorer feels more tired and irritable during the day, it is best to consult a physician and seek suggestions.
