Ayurvedic Treatment for Weight Loss and Obesity

As we grow older, it becomes even more challenging to manage your weight or lose that excess fat through a diet and exercise plan. Many of us may still choose to ignore the excessive weight. However, this is not the way it is meant to be treated. The ancient system of medicine in India – Ayurveda – helps you to lose the stubborn fat. The various natural therapies target the exercise-resistant fat based on a technique to ignite your digestive fire. The basic principles of Ayurveda are based on finding a perfect balance between the mind and the soul. When you are mindful, you are likely watchful of your weight.

What is Obesity?

Obesity is a medical condition and refers to excessive body fat. It occurs when the amount of calorie consumption exceeds the amount of calories lost. Obesity is not just a cosmetic concern, but it is a serious condition that is associated with several health problems such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, back pain, bone diseases, etc. Obesity or overweight status is determined on the basis of Body Mass Index (BMI), which is further evaluated in terms of fat distribution.

Obesity increases the risk of various health issues, such as heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers, joint problems, and respiratory difficulties.

In Ayurveda, it is believed that one of the reasons for being overweight is due to the imbalance of the Kapha Dosha. What happens is that the Kapha dosha and obesity share the same qualities, such as, both of them are slow, heavy, dense, etc. Therefore, when you start gaining extra kilos, your kapha becomes aggravated and this leads to even further weight gain.

Now, since you have decided to lose weight, the Ayurvedic way to lose weight is easy, uncomplicated, and simple. The best part about the Ayurveda fat loss treatment is that it promotes a healthy lifestyle.
