Even with good water intake, dry stools can occur due to weak digestion or vata imbalance. Include fiber-rich foods (fruits, vegetables, whole grains), 1â2 tsp ghee, soaked raisins, figs, and warm liquids daily. Ayurveda medicines & lifestyle changes help regulate bowels. I suggest you consult me for a personalized plan.
First you need to know your prakriti means your body constitution
If you vataj thn your Vata must hv increased due to bad lifestyle
You need to correct that frst
Add some ghee with lukewarm water at night before sleep
Drink mineral water
Add fruit that hv high fibre content
Eat loki , torai sbji that hv more watery content
Dry/hard stools usually come from Vata imbalance (ruksha â dryness, shoshana â depletion).
So, the key is to add snigdha (unctuous, oily), mridu (softening), and anulomana (bowel-regulating) foods + habits.
Next Steps
Consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and proper treatment
Health Tips
ð¥ Diet 1. Ghee â 1â2 tsp daily (in dal, roti, or warm milk at night). 2. Warm milk with ghee â bedtime: 1 cup warm cowâs milk + 1 tsp ghee (classic remedy for mridu mala â soft stool). 3. Soaked dry fruits â 4â5 black raisins + 2 figs/prunes soaked overnight; eat in the morning. 4. Seasonal fruits â papaya, ripe banana, guava, pear (avoid very sour fruits if too much gas). 5.
