Ayurveda and Heart Health: What Was Published in February 2025

When you hear Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of holistic medicine that uses herbs, diet, and lifestyle to balance the body. Also known as ayurvedic medicine, it's not just about herbal teas—it’s a whole way of thinking about health that millions in India rely on daily. In February 2025, we dug into how Ayurveda works in real life, who it helps, and where it might not be safe. We looked at the so-called king of all herbs, a powerful adaptogen used for centuries in India to reduce stress and boost immunity, and also warned about dangerous herbal combinations, mixes that can interfere with prescription drugs or cause liver damage. This isn’t theory—it’s what people are actually taking, and mistakes can be costly.

At the same time, we didn’t ignore the hard realities of modern medicine. People recovering from heart surgery, a major procedure that often leaves patients with long-term pain and activity restrictions needed clear answers: Can you have oral sex after open-heart surgery? What are the most painful operations? We broke down recovery timelines, what to expect, and how to avoid setbacks. We also tackled the toughest orthopedic surgeries, like spinal fusions and knee replacements, where recovery can take months and pain doesn’t just fade. These aren’t just medical terms—they’re life-changing events for real families.

And then there’s cancer. We didn’t sugarcoat it. We listed the deadliest cancers, types that kill quickly because they’re often found too late, and explained how treatments like chemotherapy actually work to kill cancer cells. For those facing stage 4 cancer, we asked the hard question: Is chemo still worth it? We didn’t give false hope—we gave facts. Meanwhile, for people managing diabetes medication, a daily battle to keep blood sugar in range, we compared metformin to newer options, and showed which pill actually works best for different bodies. No fluff. Just what you need to decide.

What you’ll find below isn’t just a list of articles. It’s a collection of real questions people asked, and answers they could actually use. Whether you’re trying Ayurveda for the first time, caring for someone after heart surgery, or choosing between pills for diabetes, this is the month we got specific. No generalizations. No vague advice. Just clear, practical info you can act on today.
