Ayurvedic Treatment For Liver Failure

INTRODUCTION

Liver is an irreplaceable organ that controls multiple body functions. Currently liver disease incidence is on a high rise due to multiple causative factors of a sedentary and unconventional lifestyle that damages the liver. Almost all liver diseases convert into chronic liver disease. If it remains untreated, it progresses towards damage. In the modern medicinal system, liver transplantation is the only treatment in the end stage. But transplantation has high costs, high mortality and scarcity of donors. Here, Ayurveda holds several advantages which we will discuss further in the article. First, let us learn a little about the condition of liver damage

How is Ayurvedic treatment for Liver failure more effective than Modern Treatment?

  • In modern treatment, the focus is mainly kept on treating the cause. For e.g. antivirals are used in viral hepatitis, immuno-suppressants in autoimmune conditions etc. Whereas Ayurveda management protocol aims in improving the metabolism of the body and stimulating hepatic function. In case of a viral infection, herbs like Bhumyamalaki (Phyllanthus niruri) show antiviral action and promote virus elimination.
  • Modern science does not provide specific medicines for reducing liver scarring or reversing damage to the liver. However, it can slow the progression of damage. For eg. Ademetionine is used for improving bile flow, methionine is an amino acid that can help prevent further damage to the liver. Ayurveda herbs contain bioactive molecules that protect the liver from oxidative stress, block fibrogenesis and aid in liver cell regeneration.
  • It is no surprise that modern treatment comes with its share of side effects. Here are some common side effects caused by modern medications used in liver damage
    • Ademetionine can affect sleep, cause nausea, dizziness, diarrhoea, constipation, brain fog, anxiety or perspiration
    • Methionine may cause mood swings, fatigue, vomiting, a drop in blood pressure etc.
    • Metadoxine may lead to muscle pain, raised heart beat, restlessness, dizziness, pain in abdomen etc.
    • Entecavir can cause dizziness, headache, nausea and fatigue.
