According to Ayurveda
In Ayurveda Ulcerative colitis is known as Raktaj Atisaar. Basically there are three energies - vata, pitta and kapha in our body which represent a healthy body. Imbalance of any of three energies results in the several health issues. Ulcerative colitis is mainly due to the imbalance of pitta dosha with involvement of imbalanced vata dosha in some cases. Pitta dosha gets aggravated due to the consumption of pitta aggravating foods which results in the damage to rakta dhatu (blood tissues) and mamsa dhatu (muscle tissues). Due to this there is the formation of ama (toxins) in the intestine. Vata dosha also gets aggravated in the lower colon region which causes the mucous accumulation and inflammation.
