Following an internal <a href=\"https:\/\/mauryaayurveda.com\/ar\/abhyanga-therapeutic-massage-maurya-ayurveda\/\">Oleation (Snehana) <\/a>and fomentation <a href=\"https:\/\/mauryaayurveda.com\/ar\/bashpa-sweda-steam-therapy-ayurveda-maurya\/\">(Swedana<\/a>), Ayurvedic formulations are carefully selected based on the patient&#8217;s constitution or Prakriti. These purgative medicines promote regulated bowel motions, thereby removing excess Pitta dosha and toxins.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Within 8 hours of taking the medication, the patient may experience 7 to 20 bouts of loose stool. Because the body loses its digestive function after Virechana, the patient will be placed on a strict food regimen. First, a liquid diet consisting of rice porridge will be implemented. The patient&#8217;s ability to digest food will be evaluated by our physician before solid food is gradually introduced.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Can you determine if your Virechana procedure was successful?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, yes!
