Brain Tumor And Its Ayurvedic Management With Remedies

ABSTRACT

A group or a mass of cells that start functioning abnormally and multiply at a very high rate. This will lead to accumulation of a group of cells known as tumors. There are various types of tumors depending on shape, size and the location of the tumor. The different types of tumors that target or arise in the brain are known as brain tumors. The tumors arising in the brain are termed as primary tumors (benign) whereas the abnormal mass of cells that spread to the brain from various other sites are called secondary tumors (malignant).

AYURVEDIC ASPECT ON BRAIN TUMOR

The tumors can be correlated to “Arbuda” according to the Ayurvedic principles. The arbuda is described as a condition that arises due to the imbalance because of a hindrance among the three fundamental elements i.e. vata, pitta, kapha. It is caused by imbalance of vata, pitta, kapha which further disturbs the balance of mansa dhatu and rakta dhatu. This will lead to formation of masapinda (tumor). This can occur in any part of the body . This will be slightly painful, and its size increases gradually – growth rate is slow. It is stated that the arbuda (tumor) is majorly caused due to the imbalance of levels of kapha dosha, and medo dhatu. Hence, the treatment regimen would include restoring the balance and equilibrium between the various elements of the body.

What is Sarcopenia? – Causes, Symptoms and Ayurvedic Treatment

Abstract

The normal aging process causes sarcopenia, which is the loss of muscular mass. A person’s strength is reduced when their muscular mass decreases. As a consequence of this, their balance and gait are also altered. Sarcopenia may make it difficult for a person to do things like climb stairs, lift items, or walk. Ayurveda is a beautiful system of medicine that not only heals sickness but also keeps our bodies healthy and balanced. Sarcopenia may be treated using a variety of herbs and herbal formulae that can keep you feeling energetic, youthful, and healthy far into your senior years.

Your stride, balance, and general ability to accomplish everyday duties are all impacted by sarcopenia. This condition mostly affects the elderly and may result in physical handicaps, decreased quality of life, and death in certain instances.

Sarcopenia

Causes

Sarcopenia is often caused by a lack of physical activity throughout the day. Sarcopenia may also be seen in people who lead busy lifestyles, although it is less prevalent. This suggests that the disease’s onset might have been caused by other reasons as well. Other reasons for sarcopenia usually involve a decline in nerve cells that transmit messages from your brain to notify your muscles to work, a drop in hormone levels, a decrease in your body’s capacity to transform protein to energy, and not eating adequate daily calories and protein to maintain muscle mass.

Symptoms

The severity of sarcopenia symptoms varies according to how much muscle mass has been lost. Signs also include:

  • Exhaustion
  • A reduction in muscle size and weakness
  • Climbing the stairs is difficult.
  • Inequity

Factor of Risk

Although age is the most common cause of sarcopenia, other variables also play a role in muscle loss. Here are a few examples:

  • Consuming too few vegetables and fruits, as well as eating a lot of acid-producing foods like grains and processed meals, may lead to a loss of muscle mass.
  • People who engage in little or no physical exercise on a daily basis are more likely to develop sarcopenia as they get older.
  • Malnutrition is a risk for older people who eat less. According to the International Organization for Research on Cancer, up to 41% of women and 38% of men over 50 consume less protein than the daily recommended limit.
  • Sarcopenia may be exacerbated by poor nutrition. Poor diet may impact how quickly muscle mass falls in elderly people, even though it can happen at any age.

Prevention

  • The most prevalent cause of this affliction is a lack of exercise. As a result, maintaining a healthy level of physical activity may reduce your risk of developing sarcopenia. Even a half-hour of moderate activity every day, such as walking or running, can assist maintain your system in good shape.
  • Whey protein is a kind of protein that aids in the preservation of muscle mass.
  • A proper diet is also necessary for successful activity. Research According to Trusted Source, eating extra protein may lessen the risk of sarcopenia in older people. Supplements have also been shown to help prevent sarcopenia.
