What is Obesity & Weight Loss?

Obesity & Weight Loss – Ayurvedic treatment at Pure Aushadhi

Obesity is excess body fat that increases the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, joint pain, fatty liver, PCOD and sleep problems. It is rarely just about willpower — hormones, thyroid, sleep, stress and medicines all play a role.

We aim for steady, healthy loss of about 2–4 kg a month. Treatment combines metabolism-supporting herbs, a home-cooked Indian diet you can sustain, activity planning and, where suitable, therapies like Udvartana (herbal powder massage).

The Ayurvedic view — Sthaulya / Medoroga

Ayurveda describes obesity as Sthaulya, one of the eight undesirable body types. Excess Kapha and Meda block channels, so nutrients are not properly converted to deeper tissues and fat keeps accumulating, while Vata trapped in the abdomen increases hunger. Treatment lightens Kapha and kindles Medo-Agni.
