Intestines are the largest and the longest organ in our gut. It’s divided into two parts, namely large intestine and small intestine. Even though the small intestine is called ‘small’, it’s actually longer than the large intestine. The major functions of the small intestines are assimilation of food and absorption of the nutrients. Additionally, on the psycho-somatic level, they get affected by emotions like anger, depression, stress and worry. Have you ever noticed episodes of indigestion, burning in the stomach and low appetite when the stress levels go very high? You might also notice increasing migraine attacks due to pent-up anger.
Ayurveda has clearly mentioned that the small intestine is a seat for the Pitta dosha i.e. the element that is responsible for the digestion and assimilation of food; it also provides us with intellect, strong grasping abilities as well as analytical and cognitive abilities. No wonder small intestine has its own intelligence!
Maintaining the health of our small intestine leads to our physical, emotional and intellectual well- being and therefore, it is extremely important to maintain its health.
