Which of the following is part of general chikitsa for grahani roga?

• A. Dipan, Pachan, Takra after meals, eating with awareness
• B. Rice with yogurt, ghee, and trikatu
• C. Takra after meals
• D. Light, easily digestible meals only when hungry

Answer: (A)

Grahani roga centers on a weak and mismanaged digestive fire, so the general approach aims to kindle agni, aid digestion, and prevent the formation of ama. Dipan opens and stimulates the digestive fire before meals, Pachana helps complete digestion and clear any accumulated toxins, and Takra after meals provides a soothing liquid that supports digestion and reduces post-meal heaviness. Pairing this with eating with awareness ensures you don’t overwhelm the gut, you chew well, and you maintain regular, mindful eating habits. Together, these measures address the root issue—improving digestion and absorption—making them the most fitting general management for grahani roga.
