Drought: How it affects health and how to overcome it
Drought is a severe climatic condition where scarcity of water leads to multiple health challenges. Prolonged exposure to drought situations can result in dehydration, poor nutrition, low immunity, and stress-related disorders. Observation of one’s hydration status, skin dryness, and fatigue helps in identifying the early health impacts of drought.
According to one of India’s leading Ayurvedic experts, Dr. Varun Ram Raj, drought creates an imbalance in the body by aggravating Vata Dosha and leading to Ama (toxin) formation due to poor digestion. The management includes maintaining adequate hydration, consuming Vata-pacifying foods like warm soups and ghee, and practicing Ayurvedic detox and rejuvenation therapies. Herbs like Ashwagandha and Bala are highly beneficial in improving strength and resilience during drought-related stress.
