Goiter, also known as bronchocele, refers to a condition that is characterized by swelling in the thyroid gland. Goiter can be supported by treating malaise. If Goiter increases in size it can cause swelling in the Larynx or Neck, Persistent Cough, Difficulty in breathing and problems in swallowing. Women are more prone to goiter than men. |
Iodine deficiency is the chief cause of Goiter. The over as well as under production of the thyroid hormone can cause Goiter. If a person has very limited consumption of iodine then his thyroid gland does not provide sufficient thyroxin hormone and this leads to Goiter. Similarly, excessive thyroid hormone can also cause over stimulation of the thyroid gland and lead to Goiter.
Kanchnara Guggulu is one of the best Ayurvedic preparations for the support of Goiter. The preparation is made from Kanchnar (Bauhiria Variegata), Guggal (Communiphora Mukul), Gum Resin, Haritaki (Terminalia Chebula), Bahera (Terminalia Bellirica), Amla (Emblica Officinale), Ginger (Zingiber Officinale), Kalimirchi (Piper Nigrum), Pippali (Piper Longum), and Elaichi (Elettaria Cardamomum).
Medhya Rasayana medicines and anti-stress medicines can be used as Goiter support.
According to Charaka, goiter does not strike those who take milk in adequate quantities. In addition, Old Rice, Barley, Moong Dal (Green Lentil), Bengal Gram, Cucumber, Sugar Juice, and Milk products are recommended for a person having goiter. Sour and heavy substances are contraindicated.
A fine paste made of the vegetable jalakumbhi (Pistia Straticies) applied over the affected part helps in reducing the swelling. The juice obtained from the jalakumbhi should be given in doses of 2 to 22 gm a day. It increases the amount of iodine, the lack of which, according to Allopathy, is one of the factors responsible for the ailment Coconut oil offers much promise today to sufferers of hypothyroidism and slow metabolism. It is a known fact that the fatty acid chains in Coconut Oil, known as medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) or medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), offer wonderful health benefits and are found more abundantly in nature under the name Coconut Oil. For the hypothyroid sufferer the MCTs help in body's sluggish metabolism

Kanchnara Guggulu is also a specific herb for hypo/hyper thyroid. It has a balancing activity on the thyroxine production; it boosts up the production of thyroxine if needed and prohibits the production of thyroxine if not needed. It also clears swellings in the neck and Goitre. |
The main symptom is a swollen thyroid gland. The size many range from a single small nodule to a large neck lump.
Thyroid gland in Ayurveda is known by the name of Galaganda, where there is neck swelling. The first description of neck swelling was mentioned in Atharva Veda (The last of the four Vedas) by the name apachi. Charaka (First Ayurvedic Physician) mentioned the disease under 20 sleshma vikaras. Sushruta Renowned ancient Indian surgeon in Sareera Sthana (body) has mentioned seven layers of the skin, the sixth layer Rohini is the seat of Galaganda. In Nidana Sthana he described Galaganda as two encapsulated small or big swellings in the anterior angle of the neck, which hang like scrotum, whereas Charaka mentioned Galaganda as a solitary swelling.
From the above description one can say that Galaganda is a condition related to thyroid gland. But hypothyroidism is not just a local problem; it has many symptoms related to many systems. So it is better not to restrict hypothyroidism with Galaganda as mentioned in the classics.
'Samprapti Vighatana' that is, reversal of pathogenesis is one of the main principles of treatment. Whatever may be the aetiology of the problem, it deactivates the thyroid gland and, ultimately, the slowing down of the body's metabolism. So the support needs to stimulate the thyroid gland. A thyroid stimulatory herb like Kanchnara Guggulu helps the problem.
Eating goitrogenic foods such as mustard seed (Rapeseed), Cabbage, Brussels Sprouts, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Sweet Potatoes, Maize, Lima Beans, Soya and Pearl Millet should be limited. These foods contain natural goitrogens, which are chemicals that cause the enlargement of the thyroid gland by interfering with thyroid hormone synthesis. Cooking makes the goitrogen elements less effective, so do not eat these foods raw.
Smoking depresses TH levels and produces chronic underlying hypothyroidism. Research shows that nicotine increases the synthesis of T3 from T4 in the brain, while alcohol and opiates block the breakdown of T3 in the brain.
Foods that contain iodine, such as Kelp (Seaweed), Beetroot, Radish, Parsley, Potatoes, Fish, Oatmeal and Bananas, are useful.
