Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Ayurvedic Solutions for Liver Health
Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (AFLD) occurs when excessive alcohol consumption leads to fat buildup in the liver, impairing its function. Ayurveda provides a natural and holistic approach to manage AFLD by addressing its root causes, detoxifying the liver, and restoring balance. At Ayur Khyati, we offer personalized Ayurvedic treatments to rejuvenate liver health, enhance digestion, and support overall well-being.
Understanding Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Ayurveda
In Ayurveda, AFLD is associated with an imbalance in the Pitta Dosha, which governs digestion and metabolism. Excessive alcohol consumption aggravates Pitta and Kapha, leading to fat accumulation and impaired liver function. Ayurvedic treatments aim to detoxify the liver, improve fat metabolism, and restore doshic balance for sustainable recovery.
