Actually i was working on maany posts ....Sorry for the delay will try to post early and new informations.Many will be posted very soon..thanks for the consern
am also adding u to my blogroll
I am new to blogging. Ayurvedic medicine was my flair and it still is. I never got a placement to be a BAMS like you.
What is panchakarma? Can these be done at home. Any special course to taken?
very nice to see u sharing such valuable and useful information with us. i have been trying the remedies for dandruff sugggested by u.can u give me some useful remedies for cracked feet.i have been using creams but of no use.ur guidance will help me.
I'm worried to see that my right big toe has become dark and dull as if it is dead, without any earlier injury - is it fungal or sign of deeper disfunctioning?
Often, esp. when I have gas or bloating I feel pinching pain in the nail bed. I eat s ind. veg food no diet - have 3 -4 glasses of tea, take no supplements. I have GERD and am allergic to red chillies, coriander, turmeric, onion garlic, milk, chick peas, eggplant, tomato and groundnuts, but I have been eating everything. I usually have 2 pieces of chocolate daily. i dont drink any milk.
I had a cold start last friday. It started as a runny nose and sinus infection. In the morning I would spit out lots of green mucus. My sinuses were clogged up. On Sunday I put some garlic oil in my nose and it cleared everything up great. But the next morning I woke up with the same thing in my chest. I cant stop coughing at night when I lay down and the stuff is yellowish greenish phlegm. My dosha is mainly Kapha with a litle vata. Seems like greenish yellow phlegm in the chest is pitta. I have been using Vasant Lad's Home remedy book but im not sure if it is clearing it out. I usually have one cup of triphala tea a day but have increased it to 2 the lat 2 days. Any suggstions to get this out of my system as soon as possible? I tried number 4 this morning(drinking water and vomiting up) but am still coughing up a little green stuff. Thanks

Among the many reasons for contacting cough and cold, when there is improper digestion, the food transforms into a mucus toxin and this circulates through the body and reaches the respiratory system, where it causes coughs and colds.
He has the problem of cough during the whole year (including summers too).
What can be the remedy please suggest.
The condition becomes worse during winter days. Esp. breathing disorder occurs he inhales (ESIFLO 250) when the condition is worse.
Please reply asap.
