To keep yourself healthy is your very own responsibility. It is awful that health issues are at apex and many diseases are not even in our knowledge. So sometimes due to lack of knowledge about a disease, conditions get more worse.ILD (Interstitial lung disease) is described as group of disorders which is characterized by the scarring of lung tissues between the air sacs. Whereas NSIP (Nonspecific interstitial pneumonia) is also a lung disorder and also a cause of ILD (Interstitial lung disease).

Ayurvedic Outlook

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in Ayurveda is described under the category of shwas roga. Shwas Roga comprises all the respiratory diseases. According to Ayurveda there are basically three energies – vata, pitta and kapha. These energies represent a healthy body. Imbalance of any these energies result in diseases. ILD is defined as the sannipapata rog and which is mainly due to the vitiation of vata dosha along with involvement of kapha dosha. There is thickening of lungs tissues between the air sacs and also there is the scarring of lungs tissues.

From the treatment perspective, herbs like Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum), Haridra (Curcuma longa), Neem (Azadirachta indica), Shirish (Albezzia lebbock), Ashwagandha (Withania sominefera), Shallaki (Boswellia serrata) and Curcumin (Curcuma longa) are very effective to manage the symptoms of ILD NSIP.
