Overview
Constipation has become increasingly common in metropolitan cities like Gurgaon, where demanding work schedules, lack of physical activity, frequent eating out, and stress can disturb digestive rhythm. While many people rely on laxatives or short-term remedies, Ayurveda emphasizes treating the root cause of constipation by correcting digestive fire ( Agni ) and balancing the doshas
Understanding Constipation in Ayurveda
In Ayurveda, digestion is governed by Jatharagni - the digestive fire located in the abdominal region. The word Jathara means stomach/abdomen and Agni means fire. When this digestive fire weakens or becomes irregular, digestion slows down, leading to incomplete waste elimination and constipation.
At Ayulife Ayurveda, we have been restoring digestive health for over 25 years through authentic Ayurvedic medicines, Panchakarma, diet correction and lifestyle guidance.
Ayurveda identifies four states of Agni:
Constipation usually results from Manda Agni (weak digestive fire) or Vishama Agni (irregular digestive fire due to Vata imbalance).
Why Constipation is Common in Modern Life
Constipation is increasingly common in modern urban life, especially in Gurgaon, due to long sitting hours, stress, lack of sleep, and irregular eating habits. Dependence on outside food, low water and fiber intake, and a sedentary lifestyle weaken Agni (digestive fire). Regular consumption of cold drinks processed foods, and alcohol further disturbs the gut, leading to chronic digestive imbalance.
