Abstract
The most common type of illness that affects an immense number of people worldwide is digestive system issues. In 2012, disorders affecting the digestive system claimed the lives of nearly 100 million people worldwide, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Despite this, the majority of scientific bodies ignore the importance of a healthy digestive system and related issues in health discussions. Digestive health is directly impacted by diet and lifestyle, and many problems can be resolved with a balanced diet or lifestyle modification. As per modern perspectives, gastrointestinal disorders pertain to illnesses that affect the digestive tract. Gastroesophageal reflux disease, cancer, IBS, and hiatal hernias are common digestive problems.
In Ayurveda, however, we classify under the Annavaha and Purishvaha srotas Dushti. Agnimandya, Aruchi, Atisara, Pravahika, Anaha, Adhmaan, Ajeerna, Visuchika, Alsaka, Vilambika are a few of the Gastrointestinal illnesses that are discussed in Ayurveda. Mandagni and Ama are typical causes of these illnesses. Therefore, in these illnesses, Deepan, Pachan, Vatanuloman, Shoolhara, and Virechaka aushadhis are commonly used. It has been said that a reduced Agni is the cause of nearly all problems. Therefore, the restoration of Agni has been accorded the greatest priority in the therapy of many disorders.
