Diet and Lifestyle Recommendations
To restore energy and vitality, include foods such as ragi, cow ghee, sesame, rice, green gram, dry fruits, grapes, amla (Indian gooseberry), pomegranate, and barley in the diet.
While strenuous exercise is not recommended for individuals experiencing debility, light physical activity or passive physiotherapy can help boost metabolism.
Spending time outdoors is preferable to staying indoors, as natural surroundings can uplift mood and improve well-being.
If debility is linked to an underlying health condition, regular check-ups are important for proper management.
Home Remedies for Debility
Sprinkle rose water, cardamom, saffron, and honey over mango slices and eat them.
Consume one raw clove of garlic daily.
Juice Indian gooseberry (amla) and mix it with honey before drinking.
Always eat freshly prepared meals.
Incorporate plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits, salads, and whole grains into your diet.
Add one-fourth teaspoon of cardamom (elaichi) to a glass of warm milk. This soothing drink serves as a calming nightcap for those experiencing debility.
Take 3-6 grams of ashwagandha (winter cherry) powder with milk twice daily.
Mix Bala powder (Sida acuta) with one cup of warm milk and a teaspoon of ghee.
A refreshing and energizing drink can be made using pomegranate or amla juice, rock salt, a pinch of black pepper, and two tablespoons of raw or brown sugar.
When to Consult a Doctor
If a psychosomatic condition is suspected or if emotional issues are involved, staying in touch with a healthcare professional is highly recommended.
If the debility worsens to the point where the individual becomes semi-conscious or unconscious, seek immediate medical attention.
If there is no improvement despite using medications or home remedies, consult a specialist for further evaluation.
