Ayurveda and Hypothyroidism with Vaidya Kamya Pillai - 410

Elements of Ayurveda Podcast

The thyroid may be small, but its influence on our energy, metabolism, mood, and overall vitality is profound. Hypothyroidism is one of the most common endocrine disorders today. Ayurveda takes a holistic perspective to uncover root causes and pathways to healing, looking at digestion, doshas, lifestyle, and even emotional health.

In this episode, I’m joined by Vaidya Kamya Pillai, a specialist in Ayurveda with over a decade of clinical experience. Together, we explore hypothyroidism through the Ayurvedic lens, including:

• How Ayurveda understands the thyroid and its role in the body

• The symptoms and root causes of hypothyroidism

• The doshas and dhatus involved in thyroid imbalance

• The role of ojas, stress, emotional health and energetic balance

• How dinacharya (daily routine), ritucharya (seasonal routine), and regular cleansing can support thyroid health

• Ayurvedic dietary guidelines for those with hypothyroidism

• A case study from Vaidya Kamya’s clinical practice

Whether you’re living with hypothyroidism or simply curious about how Ayurveda views thyroid health, this episode offers insight and practical wisdom for supporting balance and vitality.
