Commentary:
Indigestion and flatulence are two common symptoms of vata aggravation. The cold, dry and light qualities of vata weaken the digestive fire and inhibit the large intestines ability to properly absorb nutrients and maintain regularity.
Hingvastak is the traditional formula used to balance vata due to its heating quality. The herbs enkindle the digestive fire, warm the intestinal tract and promote regularity.
Notes:
For pitta-related digestive complaints, consider Digest Ease
For kapha-related digestive complaints, consider Trikatu
