ToggleHow to Know if You Are Overweight or Obese
Before starting any weight loss plan, it’s essential to understand your body metrics:
Body Mass Index (BMI):
25–29.9 → Overweight
30+ → Obese
Waist-to-Hip Ratio:
Men: More than 102 cm (40 in)
Women: More than 88 cm (35 in)
- Why this matters:
Higher waist circumference = higher risk of heart disease, diabetes, and inflammation.
Did You Know?
Obesity has tripled worldwide since 1975 (WHO).
Over 135 million people in India are affected by obesity.
NFHS-5 reports that 1 in 4 adults in India is overweight or obese.
The rise in obesity is linked to poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, stress, and slow metabolism — all of which Ayurveda addresses holistically.
“Weight management in Ayurveda is not just about reducing numbers on a scale; it’s about rekindling the body’s Agni (digestive fire) and clearing the Srotas (channels) so metabolism, hormones, and mind work in harmony.”
— Dr. Sumana Patvardhana, Ayurvedic Specialist, Adyant Ayurveda
Ayurvedic Understanding of Obesity (Sthaulya / Medoroga)
In Ayurveda, weight gain is known as Sthaulya or Medoroga. Classical texts explain obesity as a result of:
Kapha imbalance: Slow metabolism leading to fat accumulation
Vata imbalance: Stress-driven or irregular eating patterns
Pitta imbalance: Excess appetite and inflammation
Ama (toxins) and impaired Medo Dhatu Agni (fat metabolism)
Classical References:
Charaka Samhita: Excessive food, sleep, inactivity → Sthoulya
Ashtanga Hridayam: Apatarpana Chikitsa (weight reduction therapy)
Sushruta Samhita: Recommends Udwartanam, Virechana, Lekhana Basti for fat reduction
Root Causes of Weight Gain in Ayurveda:
Heavy, oily, or sweet foods
Sedentary lifestyle and irregular sleep
Weak digestive fire leading to toxin accumulation
Stress and emotional eating
Health Risks of Obesity
Obesity is not just about appearance. It increases the risk of:
Type 2 Diabetes
Hypertension & Heart Disease
PCOD/PCOS & Infertility
Sleep Apnea
High Cholesterol & Fatty Liver
Joint Problems
Certain Cancers
