Using cow urine for curing Gastrointestinal Disorders

The gastrointestinal tract comprises of the organs that are primarily concerned with absorption, assimilation and digestion of food.

Gastrointestinal disorders can be caused due to ailments affecting either the organs such as stomach, liver, pancreas or the intestines or may also be due to infection from microorganisms that find their way into these organs. A gastrointestinal physician or expert usually looks for food infection or similar causes to diagnose the exact nature of infection in such cases.

Ayurveda believes that all diseases and disorders are because of the imbalance created in the body due to the increase or decrease in the three main doshas (vata, pitta and kapha). Since these three elements are increasingly linked with the food that is consumed rather than any other aspect of our environment, it becomes important to consider the intake of food for keeping away from gastrointestinal disorders.

Ayurveda prescribes the use of many herbal treatments and natural therapy for the healing and relaxation of the organs concerned with this disorder.
