According to Ayurveda a combination of Ayurvedic herbs with Guggulu, which are highly praised in Ayurveda for dealing with inflammatory, painful and severe difficulty in physical movement (Typical conditions of rheumatic pains and arthritis) due to high Vata (Air) are helpful in relieving from this ailment. This combination helps in Lubrication of Joints, Removal of deep-seated toxins both from muscles and blood through Gastro Intestinal tract. When it comes to rheumatoid arthritis, nearly 15% of the total world's Population suffers from it. In Ayurveda there is a very detailed description about Rheumatoid arthritis or "Amavata". |
Amavata is seen most commonly in the patients due to their changing Dietetic Habits, Social Structure, Environment and Mental Stress and Strain. It is one of the commonest diseases among the crippling disorders caused due to the impairment of Pitta (Agni/Fire)-one of the three doshas namely, VATA (Air), PITTA (Fire), KAPHA (Water). 'Ama' (A toxin that is produced by imbalanced body fire), is manifested due to the derangement of Pitta (Agni/Fire), gets lodged in Kapha-Sthanas (Seat of Kapha) with the help of vitiated Vyana Vayu (One of the Air type) producing Stiffness, Swelling, Tenderness in the joints, Making the person lame. Derangement of Kapha (Water) dosha especially Shleshaka Kapha (Type of Kapha) in Amavata (Sanskrit word for Rheumatoid Arthritis) producing joint pains and swelling with tenderness. The treatment comprises of Detoxification and Rejuvenation.
The root cause of arthritis is the build up of poisonous substances in the body due to faulty digestive processes. These substances that build up in the body are known collectively as Ama.
It often results in crippling disabilities for young and old alike. Sufferer can have: Night Sweats, Depression, and Lethargy among many other symptoms. Over time, the condition can also spread to other parts of the body. Rheumatoid arthritis affects about 6.5 million people in the United States-of which mostly of them are women. The condition usually starts between the ages of twenty and fifty, although it can begin at any age. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include: Fatigue, Possible low-grade fever, General body weakness, Joint stiffness, and various degrees of joint pain. These symptoms can lead to the appearance of painful, Swollen joints within a short period.
Rheumatoid Arthritis incapacitates the synovial tissue, which is the membrane that lines joints and secretes its lubricant. This lubricant normally allows bones to move painlessly against other bones. With Rheumatoid Arthritis mostly the small joints are affected. These joints become tender, Swollen, and Even deformed and the lining of joints or lining of internal organs are inflamed. This disease may be chronic (lasts for a long time) or may flare up intermittently. The inflammation of lining of joints causes Swelling, Pain, Redness, Stiffness and warmth in the affected region. The cells of inflamed lining release enzymes which may harm the related bone and cartilage. This process may cause deformity of joint, Pain and may restrict joint movements.

The exact cause of Rheumatoid arthritis is not known. But immunologists have discovered that Rheumatoid Arthritis is an auto immune disease. According to Ayurveda, The rheumatoid arthritis is caused by formation of "Ama" (A toxin that is produced by imbalanced body fire). The toxin ama is carried by imbalanced Vata (One of the three energetic forces i.e.Vata (Air), Pita (Agni), Kapha (Water) ) and reaches the Kapha (One of the three above mentioned energetic forces) dominated places like Joints, Stomach, Chest, Brain etc. This toxin becomes sticky due to imbalanced doshas and blocks the vital channels which nourish the body. The sticky toxin ama not only affects the joints but also spreads all over the body. The channels (Channels like arteries, Intercellular spaces, pores in cells etc are called srotas) which allow nutrients to flow through and nourish body tissues, cells get partially blocked. This leads to a decreased supply of nutrients to body tissues and cells. Thus the immunity of the body gets lowered, and the appetite reduces, The body becomes weak due to insufficient nourishment of body tissues. The ama which gets logged in joints acts like a foreign substance and triggers the immune system. This leads to inflammation of linings of joints to which we call as rheumatoid arthritis. |

Amla is a strong rejuvenator and antioxidant. It boosts our immunity and revitalizes our entire body. It acts as a toner for the gastro-intestinal tract and helps in digestion.Being an anti-oxidant, it is a free radical scavenger (Free radicals damage the body that are produced in the body due to oxygen taken by the body cells). As Amla helps in food absorption and restores intestinal digestive enzymes, it protects the formation of AMA (A toxin that is produced by imbalanced body fire) in the body. Ama is the root cause of Rheumatoid Arthritis. |

As Ama (A toxin that is produced by imbalanced body fire) is the bye-product of faulty metabolism of fats, Carbohydrates and Proteins. It is the accumulation of toxins within the body. So it is vital to check the formation of Ama. This Ama can be checked if an herb having digestive properties is consumed. Vibhitaki is such an herb having marvellous digestive properties. It helps reduce weight and this reduction in the weight lights the body weight. If the body weighs less, there is less weight on the joints and thereby less pain in Arthritis. |
