Ayuvedic Treatment for Xerostomia – Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis & Herbal Supplements

ABSTRACT

Saliva is a vital bodily fluid made by the salivary gland, i.e., the parotid gland, the submandibular gland, and the sublingual gland. In adults, salivary glands make up about 0.5 - 1.5 liters. Saliva helps in various functions like speech, digestion, protects the gums and enamel, strengthens the tooth enamel, washes away the debris, helps in speech, and enhances the taste. Some diseases affect saliva production, such as AIDS, and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren's disease can make salivary glands inflamed and painful.

Xerostomia

INTRODUCTION

In this article, we are going to talk about a disease called Xerostomia, in which salivary glands do not produce enough saliva, also known as Dry Mouth. Saliva flow is decreased by 50-60%. It is more common in women than men, elderly people (more common in people over 65 years of age), and people with certain medical conditions. When affected, there is dryness in the mouth, bad breath, thick saliva, and soreness.

CAUSES

The causes of Xerostomia are

  1. SMOKING : Habits like chronic smoking and chewing tobacco lead to dry mouth.
  2. MEDICATIONS : A dry mouth is a common side effect of prescribed medications like antihistamines, decongestants, and some muscle relaxants. Old people are more prone to dry mouth.
  3. ANXIETY : When the person experiences stress or anxiety, or the body activates fight or flight which suppresses the saliva production by salivary glands resulting in a dry mouth.
  4. DEHYDRATION : Conditions that lead to dehydration are high fever, vomiting, excessive sweating, diarrhea, blood loss, and burns can lead to dry mouth.
  5. SOME MEDICAL TREATMENTS : Damage to the salivary glands can affect saliva production. It can be done during radiation to the head or neck, or chemotherapy for cancer patients.
  6. NERVE DAMAGE : A dry mouth can be the result of nerve damage during the surgery or injury.
  7. SALIVARY GLAND PROBLEMS : Surgical removal of salivary glands can lead to a dry mouth.
  8. SPICY FOOD : Eating a lot of spicy food also hampers saliva production which may also lead to dry mouth in severe cases.
  9. SJOGREN DISEASE : In Sjogren's disease, there is chronic lymphocytic infiltration and inflammation of acinar cells resulting in gland damage which initiates the dry mouth.

SYMPTOMS

Here are the symptoms of Xerostomia

  1. Dryness in the mouth for a long time
  2. The patient might have bad breath due to less saliva production
  3. A dry or grooved tongue can be seen in the patient
  4. A burning or tingling sensation in the mouth, especially on the tongue
  5. The patient may have problems while chewing, swallowing, and tasting
  6. The tongue appears to be dry, red, and raw
  7. There is a classical sign of the tongue, the “Cobblestone” appearance of the tongue
  8. Frequent thirst

DIAGNOSIS

The clinical examination may include

  1. Fissured tongue and lips can be seen.
  2. Lack of saliva on the floor of the mouth.
  3. A biopsy of the salivary glands can be done.
  4. Sialography, which is 3D imaging of the salivary glands, can also be done to check for any mass or stone in the salivary gland.
  5. Sialometry in which saliva flow rate is checked and which should be around 1.5–2.0 ml/min, but if it is around 0.5–0.7 ml/min or less than 0.1 ml/min, then it can be hyposalivation leading to xerostomia.

TREATMENT

Managing xerostomia involves a combination of oral hygiene practices, hydration, and medical treatments to restore moisture

  1. The patient can stay properly hydrated by drinking lots of water.
  2. By avoiding certain foods and drinks that cause dry mouth.
  3. The patient can be suggested to use a saliva substitute such as carboxymethylcellulose, xylitol, or hydroxyethylcellulose.
  4. The patients can be recommended to use fluoridated kinds of toothpaste and gels.
  5. Avoid breathing through the mouth.
  6. Avoid alcohol or tobacco consumption.

COMPLICATIONS

There can be complications when xerostomia is not managed on time

  1. Candidiasis
  2. Dental Caries
  3. Angular Cheilitis
  4. Sialadenitis
  5. Dysphagia
  6. Mouth Ulcerations
  7. Gum Disease

HOME REMEDIES FOR XEROSTOMIA

Here are some home remedies for Xerostomia

1. Cardamom

It should be eaten after meals or at other times. It not only keeps away bad breath but also helps in saliva production. Another thing is that you can also drink cardamom tea or cardamom-infused water which has the properties to stimulate saliva production. This can provide relief from the discomfort of dry mouth.

2. Ginger

Ginger is a natural sialagogue, it can stimulate the salivary gland to produce more saliva. Some ways to use ginger for a dry mouth like chewing on raw ginger, ginger tea, and ginger spray. It shouldn't be used in excess as it produces heat in the body.

3. Aloe Vera

It is rich in antioxidants and a natural hydrating substance. It not only works on the dry mouth but also protects the tissue of the mouth. The patient can drink a quarter cup of half aloe vera juice once every day. Do not swallow the pulp just rinse it after keeping it in the mouth for a few minutes.

4. Hydration

Water has health benefits. Drinking water not only hydrates oral tissues but also lips, throat, and gums.

5. Lemon

Lemon has citric acid in it, which helps in the production of saliva by the salivary glands. This can provide relief from the discomfort of dry mouth. Here are some ways to use lemon for dry mouth. You can cut the lemon into two halves and suck it 1–3 times a day or drink the lemon tea or lemon water. Don’t use lemon in excess, as it has citric acid and can erode the tooth.

6. Fennel Seeds

Fennel seeds have metabolites and flavonoids that stimulate saliva production and control bad breath. You can chew the fennel seeds after a meal.

After that, a contrast material is then injected through the long tube. An X-ray video is made which shows the heart functions and its blockages.
  3. Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG): By this method the electrical activity of the heart is viewed which helps to determine whether any part of the heart has become enlarged, has overworked or damaged. 12 to 15 electrodes helps to detect heart’s electrical currents which are attached to person’s arms, legs and chest with a sticky tape.

Real Story of a Breast Cancer Survivor

DIVNA SHIPOVIKJ DESCRIBES AN INTEGRATIVE MODEL FOR TREATING CANCER THAT COMBINES ALLOPATHIC AND AYURVEDIC TREATMENTS.

I began my long journey of educating myself about Ayurveda, the philosophy behind it, the herbs, the natural remedies, the doshas.

My name is Divna. Breast cancer survivor. Ayurveda believer and enthusiast. Starting a new life. Here is my story: why I decided to redefine and change my life.

30 years of my professional life I passionately devoted to education. I walked my professional path enthusiastically from the classroom, through ministerial offices, to fieldwork, implementing reforms in the education system. I considered myself privileged for getting a chance to make a significant impact and personal contribution to education.

And then a sudden personal blow. I was diagnosed with breast cancer. A big tumor with a few metastases. I was devastated. Mastectomy and lymph nodes removed. And that was the easy part. Chemotherapy was the real challenge. Couldn't eat, was sick all the time, felt dizzy and very weak, lost hair, and abrupt physical changes of the skin and nails. I felt miserable.

From a fellow patient I heard of Ayurveda for the first time in my life. I thought it was just another unrealistic miracle story. After my fourth chemo I felt so bad that I decided to do something. I went to see an ayurvedic doctor for consultations. He advised me about diet. Gave me a list of foods I should avoid. Prescribed me several ayurvedic herbal supplements. It seemed too easy to be true. I asked about the treatment I was already going through. He told me that I should continue with it, and add the ayurvedic therapy to it. That seemed reasonable. I thought, "I can do these changes to my diet. Herbs cannot harm me, and maybe they can help me heal sooner." So, I decided to give it a try.

Went for another consultation to my ayurvedic doctor. This time I had some questions about the herbs, the composition of the ayurvedic products that he prescribed, about Ayurveda and how to change my lifestyle. I left happy with the answers and advice he gave me.

I continued with prescribed ayurvedic remedies and got much, much better. My oncologist was surprised by the speed of my recovery and with my check up results that all came out normal. I knew that I had made the right choice for my health.

My third visit to my ayurvedic doctor was to discuss the diet and the changes in the lifestyle in more detail. I had questions about the company producing these products and the man behind the company.

I began my long journey of educating myself about Ayurveda, the philosophy behind it, the herbs, the natural remedies, the doshas. I was eagerly reading everything available. I met in person the man behind Planet Ayurveda, Dr Vikram Chauhan. Spoke with many patients using ayurvedic remedies. Spoke with ayurvedic practitioners about their experience with herbal remedies.

A few years after I heard of Ayurveda for the first time in my life, I joined the Planet Ayurveda team in its holistic approach to curing and healing people. I share the information about ayurvedic products and their benefits for people suffering from different health concerns.

I am very enthusiastic as I know first hand how effective the Ayurvedic holistic approach to health and wellbeing is.

This story is also published in many magazines like; Spirit of Change, Heartfulness and other.

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT OF LIVER CIRRHOSIS

Ayurvedic Treatment of Liver Cirrhosis 

Liver cirrhosis is a complicated disease in which there is damage to liver cells and there is a huge burden on the remained functional liver cells. Slowly the burden becomes so high that the functional cells also start to die. 

There are many reasons for liver cirrhosis. The most important ones are chronic alcohol consumption and sometimes viral infection leading to hepatitis and complete damage to liver. Chemical based drugs, toxins in food and water leading to hepatitis. 


1. Alcoholic liver disease is one of the major reason for liver cirrhosis. 

2. Hepatitis - Hepatitis is inflammation of liver due to any cause. Damage to liver cells leads to disturbed liver metabolism, release of bilirubin in the blood leading to yellowish discoloration of skin known as Jaundice. Elevation of liver enzymes like SGOT and SGPT. Major cause of Hepatitis are viral causes. Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis D and Hepatitis E

  
3. Bile duct Blockage leading to Biliary liver cirrhosis - Bile is a substance produced by the liver to help the body digest fats. Bile is carried from the liver to the gallbladder and eventually into the intestines by small tubes called bile ducts. If these ducts become blocked, the bile backs up and can damage the liver. The liver becomes inflamed, starting the long process of cell damage that leads to cirrhosis. In adults, gallstones are a common cause of bile duct blockage. Surgery to remove the gallbladder also blocks the bile ducts.

There are many other reasons for liver cirrhosis but the above 3 are main reasons for liver cirrhosis and alcoholic liver disease is one of them. 
No matter what is the reason behind liver damage and liver cirrhosis but the below mentioned herbal remedies help to regenerate the liver cells and prove to be an effective treatment for liver cirrhosis.
