AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON RECENT WEIGHT CHANGE

Any recent or sudden weight change is important sign from the body that demands attention. It is important to know the cause of any recent weight changes.

Rapid weight gain may be caused by low metabolism and hypothyroid. Getting your thyroid checked is an important first step in understanding any recent, unprompted weight loss. Rapid weight gain may be water retention, especially if it correlates with bouts of inflammation or your menstrual cycle. Read more about feeling overweight.

Rapid weight loss may be due to malabsorption, or a recent bout of vomitting or diarrhea. It is also potential alarm sign for something more serious like a parasite or cancer. Read more about feeling underweight.

Disclaimer: 'Recent weight change' could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

HOW TO ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE #3

RECENT WEIGHT CHANGE IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE #3 - ATTACKING TISSUE

If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances are becoming stronger and weakening your body's resistance. Most people have a weakness in one or more organs. These areas of weakness are the 'weak link in the chain.' They are first to succumb when an imbalance reaches a tipping point. Repairing imbalances in this category often represent your last opportunity to prevent disease. At any moment, these imbalances could overwhelm weakened tissue and develop into a disease. You may feel pain or discomfort in the weakened area. At this stage you will need to support the weakened tissue with specialized foods and herbs for the weakened tissue.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS

ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?

WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?

Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.

HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?

Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharacteristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.

On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.

GET STARTED

To get started on your Ayurvedic journey, we first recommend that your find your body type by taking our free quiz. In Ayurveda, every solution is based on your unique body type, so by taking this quiz, you’ll get the best results.

“My recent weight change (from 118 lbs. to 104 lbs. within six months) was in part due to removing all meat and poultry from my diet and exercising more. My naturopath recommended eating two eggs and a protein powder shake a day to bring my weight back. My weight has slowly increased, but I would like to transition to a vegan diet. My hope is that an Ayurvedic diet without animal products could supply all my nutritional needs. A complication is that I'm 62 years old and have absorption issues."
