Ayurveda Cure For Gluten Allergy

Ayurvedic medicine,ancient Indian wisdom enables one to lead a graceful, harmonious and vigorous life free of any disorders including gluten allergy. Ayurveda, a prehistoric healing system, to live a healthy life, advises us to modify our activities which will be in rhythm with the nature.
Gluten allergy is a condition of the digestive system resulting in the poor absorption of certain nutrients.
Individuals who are intolerant to gluten, a protein, which is mostly found in wheat related products are mostly affected by this allergy.Ayurveda believes that pitta dosha vitiation is also one of the main reason and hence provides herbal medicines for pacifying it.

Some of the suggested medicines are as below :

Commonly used medicines are Chiruvilwadi qwath, Chithragrandyadi qwath, Chitrakadi qwath, Kalyana gulam, Agasthaya rasayan, Kooshmanda rasayan etc.
These medicines increase the digestive quality and toxins are not produced after the digestion of gluten diet.
The medicines will subside the allergic reactions in due course. Strict diet restrictions should be followed during the medication. Regular internal purification process advised by a qualified Ayurvedic doctor should be performed in regular intervals.

Tripala acts as an alkalyzer and if taken regularly helps to balance the vitiated pitta which is an acid base disorder. But it has to be accompanied by the gluten free diet and lifestyle during the treatment period.
Best detoxifying ayurvedic medicine is a balanced infusion of organic herbs and spice like rosemary, ginger, orange, turmeric, aloe vera and lime.

Panchakola ( herbal combination )when added with the gluten free soups is excellent remedy. It also recommends parpati kalpa which along with a strict gluten free diet is very helpful.

Buttermilk is the best appetizer and can be taken in any quantity aids in fast recovery of the disease. In order to make the digestive agni stronger one has to take a dose of ghee mixed with appetizing ayurvedic herbal formulations.

Gluten allergy is a malabsorption syndrome which is caused by the ingestion of the gluten protein found in the wheat products. If the patient's sticks on to the gluten free diet then there is a drastic improvement in his condition.

Ayurveda suggests the following modified diet and lifestyle:

Wheat, rye, barley, oats and other related grains contain gluten and it better to avoid it totally. Avoid taking beer, cereal beverages, cakes, biscuits, ice-cream, processed soups, crackers, processed cheese/meats, candy bars.

Instead one may substitute rice, potato, corn,tapioca,
chickpea, soya beans,arrowroot,carob,buckwheat,millet,
amaranth and quinoa and gluten free flour.
Few of the gluten free foods and beverages are- tea, cofee, rum, wines, jellybabies, choclates, fresh fruits/ vegetables/ fish/ meat/ poultry/ eggs,popcorn,
jam honey and sugar.
Take a lot of leafy green vegetables by cooking them in an appropriate manner and it has a lot of minerals which improves metabolism.

One may start with eating his favorite naturally gluten-free foods and then later add his unfavourite ones.
To mention few : Wines and brandies without any preservatives and dyes in it. Gluten-free breads which
has an easily digestible base ingredients like rice flours etc. All hard cheeses like cheddar, swiss, edam, and parmesan.
Fresh brewed coffee, chocolate made with cocoa, fruit juices etc.Regarding snacks one may take rice wafers, potato or corn starch based chips, popcorn etc. In Sweets one may include sugar, honey, maple syrup, jellies, jams etc.

One has to take care while buying bakery products and packed/processed food by inspecting the labels and avoid the products if it has gluten as its ingredient.
Sometimes alternative names such as cereal products or emulsifiers, stabilizers, are also used in labels.

Always try to eat home made preparations where you will know the ingredients of your intake. Also note that if you have to avoid all the foods with gluten, it is definitely going to be so stressful which can be managed by yoga which comprises of postures,meditation and breathing techniques.
Ayurvedic medicine recommends focusing on stress reduction and do detoxification according to ones body constitution and lead an easy life free of tension.

I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis (gluten allergy that affects skin and small intestine) about 3 months ago. It’s been 2 months that I am on gluten free diet and on dapsone(which has side effects more than the problem it is taken for). According to allopathy there is no cure for gluten allergy. When I came across this article, I got to know it can be cured using ayurveda and yoga. How does this remedy work? Say if I undergo this remedy, can I eat food containing gluten normally as I used to 3 months back? Or I’ll have to keep off from gluten. Is this a permanent solution?
Thank you .
