A typical weight loss ayurvedic medicine is simple, natural, and free of side effects, whereas mainstream medicine may recommend potentially dangerous surgical interventions such as bariatric surgery (which involves the removal of the lower part of the stomach). Also, keep in mind that ayurveda is more than just a healing system of medicine; it is a way of life that guides you towards a healthy lifestyle.
Ayurvedic weight loss medicine is based solely on natural therapeutic ingredients. There are several ayurvedic herbs known for their weight-loss properties, but we’ve compiled a list of the top 5 most effective ayurvedic medicines for weight loss without side effects. These herbs are listed in no particular order below (means they are not listed rank wise).
Kalongi
Kalongi, also known as Nigella Sativa, is a seed that is widely used in Indian cuisine. It has a variety of health benefits, including weight loss. It burns fat and promotes a healthy body mass index. Kalongi is also used in the treatment of diabetes and high cholesterol. According to a study published in the Indonesian Journal Of Internal Medicine, using this herb can help men lose belly fat, lower blood pressure, and improve digestion.
A 2013 study published on ncbi.nlm.nih.gov reveals that kalongi has numerous health benefits. The wonder herb has antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, anticancer, pain relieving, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, gastro-protective, hepato-protective, and nephro-protective activity. This study found kalongi to be effective for weight loss.
Guggul
Guggul is a popular Ayurvedic herb with a variety of medicinal properties. It fights bad cholesterol and aids in the production of good cholesterol. According to Ayurveda, guggulu suppresses the kapha dosha, which is responsible for the development of obesity.
Guggulu cannot be consumed orally in its natural state. It is usually combined with other herbs to form a compound, which is then taken in the form of tablets, powder, syrup, or capsules. Guggul single herb preparations are also available for those who prefer to use it in its purest form.
Aloe Vera
Many clinical studies have been conducted to investigate the effect of aloe vera gel on weight loss. In one study on rats, aloe vera gel was found to reduce body fat, thereby assisting in diet-induced obesity. Aloe vera has been shown to increase metabolic rate by increasing energy expenditure rate. As a result, the more calories you burn, the more weight you will lose.
Orally, Aloe Vera is used to lose weight. If you have access to an aloe vera plant, cut one of its leaves and carefully extract the pulp. Swallow this pulp whole, or mix it with juice or lukewarm water.
Zeera
Cumin seeds (zeera) aid digestion. It raises the BMR (basal metabolic rate). This encourages your body to burn more calories and lose belly fat. Zeera contains thymoquinone, a natural ingredient that fights free radicals and increases insulin sensitivity in cells. Zeera can also help with blood sugar control, is an excellent antioxidant, and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Regular use of zeera has been shown to speed up the weight loss process, reduce belly fat, lower blood sugar, and reduce swelling and inflammation. In one study, 72 overweight people between the ages of 18 and 50 were given a combination of Cumin cyminum L. and lime. Individuals who took Cumin cyminum L. and lime lost weight significantly more than those who took a placebo.
Garcinia Cambogia
The tropical fruit Garcinia cambogia is native to India and Southeast Asia. It is well-known for its ability to aid in weight loss. Garcinia is thought to suppress appetite and inhibit the body’s ability to produce and store fat. It contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA), a natural chemical that suppresses appetite.
Garcinia cambogia supplements are available. Typically, capsules and tablets are produced. To achieve the best results, go with a well-known brand or manufacturer. HCA should make up 50-60% of the supplement. Three times a day, 15 minutes before meals, take the herb supplement orally.
