Health Special: The health condition of the body in summer was good, but the body condition was so bad in the monsoon season, that too in the early season. The most important body change among them is ‘Agnimandya’. Agni is not a limited meaning of hunger or digestive power burning in the body, but the body’s desire to consume food (hunger), the various processes that help digest food, the processes of converting that food into energy and excreting waste products is the mechanism that is ‘Agni’.
Ayurveda expected fire
To be more precise, the digestion of every particle of food consumed, the production of energy or body cells from it, and the excretion of the waste elements that are produced, the many biochemical actions-processes that take place at all three levels, is the concept of ‘Agni’ expected by Ayurveda. All these three functions of Agni get distorted during monsoons, patients experience the same.
Appetite slows down
Agni is slow in summer, but it slows down even more during the monsoon season (early monsoon). Therefore, the appetite slows down during these monsoon days even more than in summer. There was a state of wanting to eat because the desire for food was reduced and it was literally time to eat. No interest in food. Even if you eat with force, the food does not get digested due to fire. So people get sick with various digestive complaints during these days. Such as, feeling full even without eating, belching of fullness even without eating, belching of indigestion after eating, belching with sour-bitter bile, burning in the chest and stomach, bloating even after eating little, frequent bloating in the stomach, When the balloon passes through the lower passageway, it feels good to have a foul-smelling gas.
Obstruction or preoccupation
Sometimes constipation and sometimes loose stools. Many people, including me, complain of foaming and flaking these days. On the other hand, many people are troubled by malavrodhana. Many people also complain of bleeding due to difficulty passing stool due to hardening of the stool. Again, in the early days of the monsoons, light food is expected, but during the rainy season, people eat spicy, spicy, oily-ghee, which is hard to digest. It is not digested by some and the fire disease becomes more severe. As Agni slows down, the food consumed is not converted into micro-molecules that the body can digest and the body does not get the nutrition it needs from those food molecules. Such unnourished bodies become weak. Such weakened body parts and the organs formed from those body parts become weak and then the diseases of those parts become stronger. All in all, it was because of that fire.
