Understanding Liver Problems
The liver is one of the most vital organs in your body, responsible for detoxification, metabolism, digestion, and nutrient storage. When the liver becomes damaged or diseased, it can lead to serious health complications. Common liver conditions include fatty liver disease, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and liver enzyme imbalances.
Common Liver Conditions
- Fatty Liver Disease: Accumulation of fat in liver cells
- Hepatitis: Inflammation of the liver
- Cirrhosis: Scarring of liver tissue
- Liver Enzyme Imbalance: Elevated ALT, AST levels
- Jaundice: Yellowing of skin and eyes

Ayurvedic View of Liver Problems
In Ayurveda, the liver is considered the seat of Pitta dosha, particularly Ranjaka Pitta which governs blood quality and liver function. Liver problems arise when Pitta becomes imbalanced, leading to inflammation, toxin accumulation, and impaired liver function. Ayurvedic treatment focuses on balancing Pitta, detoxifying the liver, and rejuvenating liver tissues.
Pitta Imbalance
Excessive Pitta creates inflammation and heat in liver tissues, damaging liver cells and impairing detoxification functions.
Toxin Accumulation
Weak digestive fire leads to Ama accumulation, which blocks liver channels and impairs metabolic functions.
Ranjaka Pitta Disturbance
Imbalance in Ranjaka Pitta affects blood quality, bile production, and overall liver metabolic activities.
