Effectively Heal Crohn’s Disease

Why EliteAyurveda

How are we able to Treat Crohn's Disease

Crohn's Disease is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. According to Ayurveda, it is considered an imbalance of the body's doshas, particularly Vata and Pitta, leading to inflammation and irritation in the intestines.

Crohn's Disease is caused by the imbalance of Vata and Pitta doshas according to Ayurveda. When these doshas get aggravated, they affect the digestive fire (Agni), leading to the production of toxins (Ama) which cause inflammation in the intestines. Acharya Charaka in Charaka Samhita, Chikitsa Sthana, 15/22 mentions:

"Vata-Pitta prakopad vidagdham pittam jathyascha pitheshmadhyath" - Aggravation of Vata and Pitta doshas leads to inflammatory conditions in the digestive tract.

This shloka explains that conditions like Crohn's Disease are related to dosha imbalances and can be managed by pacifying these doshas.

“ According to ayurveda, Crohn’s disease is a result of vitiated Pitta dosha that causes inflammation. When the digestive tract is inflamed, it leads to symptoms, which are the same when Pitta is vitiated. The seat of Pitta dosha is the naval region, stomach and rasa tissue. Rasa is the first tissue formed after the nutrition process accomplished by Pitta dosha. When there is indigestion, i.e. when Pitta dosha is vitiated, symptoms similar to Crohn’s disease are observed. Thus, the root cause of Crohn’s disease are- improper digestion of food in the stomach, formation of toxins, less formation of nutritive juices and deficiency of nutritive juices that reach every tissue in the body.
Thus, the Ayurvedic treatment of Crohn’s disease focuses on eliminating the root cause, i.e. by balancing the Pitta dosha. The therapies accompanied in the treatment of this condition are Pravarthana, Pramathyas and Langhana. Further, for the elimination of accumulated toxins, panchakarma procedures, mainly virechana are employed. Rasayana therapy is also used to boost rejuvenation and nourishment of cells. This line of treatment helps in complete reversal of the condition and also helps in the long run.

What is Crohn's Disease?

Crohn's Disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and ulcers in the digestive tract, particularly in the lining of the small intestine and colon. It can lead to severe abdominal pain and diarrhea if not treated properly.

Treatment

According to Ayurveda, Crohn’s disease is a result of vitiated Pitta dosha that causes inflammation. When the digestive tract is inflamed, it leads to symptoms, which are the same when Pitta is vitiated. The seat of Pitta dosha is the naval region, stomach and rasa tissue. Rasa is the first tissue formed after the nutrition process accomplished by Pitta dosha. When there is indigestion, i.e. when Pitta dosha is vitiated, symptoms similar to Crohn’s disease are observed. Thus, the root cause of Crohn’s disease are- improper digestion of food in the stomach, formation of toxins, less formation of nutritive juices and deficiency of nutritive juices that reach every tissue in the body.
Thus, the Ayurvedic treatment of Crohn’s disease focuses on eliminating the root cause, i.e. by balancing the Pitta dosha. The therapies accompanied in the treatment of this condition are Pravarthana, Pramathyas and Langhana. Further, for the elimination of accumulated toxins, panchakarma procedures, mainly virechana are employed. Rasayana therapy is also used to boost rejuvenation and nourishment of cells. This line of treatment helps in complete reversal of the condition and also helps in the long run.

The treatment for Crohn's Disease is as mentioned below:

  1. Detoxification: This is achieved by ingestion of herbal formulations that clear up Ama from the body.
  2. Internal medications: These are provided to set back all the doshas in line with bodily functions. The medications may include Kutajarishta, Bilva Taila, and other formulations based on individual needs.
  3. External applications: These include massage of herbal oils and formulations on the abdominal area to soothe inflammation and aid healing.

Along with the line of treatment for Crohn's Disease, a side treatment is suggested by health professionals regarding the diet and exercise routine. This helps in fixing the unmanaged metabolism and also helps in balancing doshas within the body.

Complications associated with Crohn’s disease

  1. Obstacle to bowel movement: Crohn's disease can alter the entire gut wall thickness. Parts of the gut might scar and constrict with time, obstructing the movement of digestive materials. The unhealthy piece of your colon may require surgery to be removed.
  2. Ulcers: Chronic inflammation can cause open sores (ulcers) throughout your digestive tract, including your mouth and anus, as well as in your genital area (perineum).
  3. Fistulas: Ulcers can sometimes spread all the way through the intestinal wall, resulting in a fistula, which is an unnatural connection between two bodily regions. Fistulas can form between the gut and the skin, between the intestine and other organs. The most frequent type of fistula is one that develops at or around the anal region (perianal).
  4. Anal fissure: A minor break in the tissue that lines the anus or in the skin around the anus can lead to infection. It's frequently linked to uncomfortable bowel motions and can result in a perianal fistula.
  5. Malnutrition: You may find it difficult to eat or for your gut to absorb enough nutrients to keep you fed if you have diarrhea, stomach discomfort, or cramping. Due to iron and vitamin B-12 deficiency, anemia is most common.
  6. Colon cancer: is a kind of cancer that affects the intestine. If you have Crohn's disease that affects your colon and is most likely to manifest colon cancer. People without Crohn's disease should have a colonoscopy every ten years starting at age 50, according to general colon cancer screening guidelines.

Causes

Crohn's Disease is believed to result from an inappropriate immune response in the intestine. The exact cause is unknown, but factors such as genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and an abnormal immune system response may contribute to its development.

Stages

Crohn's Disease is typically categorized based on the extent of the disease in the colon:

  1. Ileocolitis: Inflammation affects the end of the small intestine (ileum) and the beginning of the colon.
  2. Ileitis: Inflammation affects only the ileum.
  3. Gastroduodenal Crohn's Disease: Inflammation affects the stomach and the beginning of the small intestine (duodenum).
  4. Jejunoileitis: Inflammation affects the upper half of the small intestine (jejunum).
  5. Granulomatous Colitis: Inflammation affects only the colon.
