Given today's dietary habits and sedentary lifestyles, it's no wonder that many people struggle with unsatisfying bowel movements. However, the real issue arises when these symptoms are mistakenly diagnosed as constipation. In this episode, Dr Vignesh Devraj dives into the commonly misdiagnosed condition of constipation, exploring its symptoms, the reasons behind frequent misdiagnosis, and how this often leads people to rely on laxatives and other ineffective routines. He also shares simple changes that can help reverse the condition.

A couple of topics discussed in this episode are:

• What is constipation really? 

• The clinical symptoms of constipation

• Wrong routines & Constipation Anxiety

• Dietary recommendation for constipated patients 

• Laxatives & Ayurveda

BALANCE THE MIGHTY VATA - ONLINE COURSE NOW AVAILABLE 

What makes Ayurveda unique in its treatment approach is its practical wisdom on the concept of Vata. Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery. Recently I have recorded a workshop on - Balancing The Mighty Vata which has over 6 hrs of content, with notes filled with practical inputs that can be integrated into our life.
