What is

High Cholesterol in Ayurveda?

High cholesterol is a major risk factor for heart disease. Ayurveda offers traditional wellness approaches used for heart-health support, combining detoxification, herbs, yoga, stress management and diet guidance, based on your individual consultation with our Ayurvedic physician.

Your treatment plan is determined after consultation with an Ayurvedic physician, according to your constitution (dosha), health condition and wellness goals. Cholesterol disorders and heart conditions need medical evaluation, and Ayurveda is used as a complementary approach.

How Ayurveda Views High Cholesterol

Ayurvedic care looks at the underlying imbalance rather than only the numbers:

Kapha Imbalance

High cholesterol is related to an imbalance of Kapha dosha.

Weak Digestion (Agni)

Improper digestion contributes to the build-up of waste in the body.

Ama (Toxins)

Accumulated toxins are linked to blockages in arteries and blood vessels.

Ayurvedic Focus

Detoxification, better digestion and metabolic balance.

Herbs Traditionally Used in Heart-Wellness Practices

Your physician may recommend some of these herbs, depending on your constitution and needs.

Triphala

Traditionally used to support digestion and detoxification.

Guggul

Studied for potential lipid-supportive properties and used in balance-focused routines.

Arjuna

Traditionally valued in heart-supportive practices.

Amla

Indian gooseberry, rich in antioxidants and vitamin C.

Ashwagandha

Traditionally used to ease stress and support overall heart health.

Bhringraj

Traditionally used to support liver function and fat metabolism.

Punarnava

Traditionally used to detoxify the blood and support heart health.

Tulsi & Neem

Tulsi is antioxidant-rich; neem helps purify the blood and supports wellness.
