Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory condition forming tiny granuloma clusters, most often in lungs and lymph nodes, with variable skin, eye, and joint involvement. Many cases remit; some need immunosuppression.

The Ayurvedic View of Sarcoidosis
Ayurvedic Understanding
Ayurveda interprets granulomatous inflammation with immune dysregulation as aggravated Pitta-Kapha with deep ama affecting tissues.
Supportive care emphasises anti-inflammatory diet, channel-clearing routine, rest during flares, and immune-balancing herbs.
