→Principles of treatment of IBS
Dietary modifications including more dietary fibers, psycho-social therapies, drugs like anticholinergics, antidepressants, antidiarrheals, anxiolytics and those acting on serotonin receptors are being used in the management of IBS. Probiotics have a greater role to enhance or support the bacterial flora in the gut.

In a clinical study on IBS, by Raksha Mer & H. M. Chandola (2004), the effect of kutajadi avaleha alone and kutajadi avaleha along with medhyarasayana ghrita was compared. Better results were observed in the combined group. This shows the importance of addressing the psychological component in the treatment protocol.

Buttermilk has an astringent taste (kashaya rasa) and hot potency (ushna virya). It increases the digestive power ([[deepana]]) and absorbs fluid from the stool (grahi). It decreases aggravated [[kapha]] and rectifies the digestive process. It’s sweet and sour taste do not provoke [[vata]]. Its property of “madhura vipaka”, does not cause the aggravation of [[pitta]]. So, it is best to keep the balance of all the three [[dosha]] in gut.
