Chapped Lips? It’s Not Just Weather — Heal It From Within

Discover the deeper causes of chapped lips beyond weather — like stomach heat and vitamin B deficiency. A sacred guide to healing your lips from within, in Araah’s holistic tone.

🌡️ The Real Root: Stomach Heat + Vitamin B Deficiency

In Ayurveda, dry, chapped lips are a sign of excess pitta (heat) in the stomach or vata imbalance (dryness).
Modern science supports this — linking lip cracks to B-vitamin deficiency and dehydration.

Let’s decode the deeper causes and sacred solutions.

❌ 5 Hidden Reasons Behind Your Chapped Lips

1. Excess Tea & Coffee Intake

• Diuretics that dehydrate tissues and flush out B-vitamins

• Aggravates pitta → lips become dry, red, or cracked
  🌿 Ritual Fix: Limit to 1–2 cups/day. Replace with herbal infusions like fennel or warm jeera water.

2. Lack of Healthy Fats in Diet

• Fats like ghee, seeds, nuts protect the lips from internal dryness

• Low-fat diets often lead to dull, flaky lips
  🌿 Ritual Fix: Add soaked almonds, sesame seeds, or coconut to meals every day.

3. Vitamin B Deficiency (B2, B3, B6)

• Triggers lip cracks, soreness at corners, or peeling

• Common in stress, poor gut health, and restrictive diets
  🌿 Ritual Fix: Include bananas, spinach, fermented foods, jaggery, soaked almonds.

4. Stomach Heat & Poor Digestion

• Pitta imbalance from spicy, fried, acidic foods

• Signs: acidity, ulcers, burning, and dry lips
  🌿 Ritual Fix: Sip jeera-ajwain-dry ginger tea through the day. Include banana, cucumber, ghee.

5. Skipping Nighttime Lip Nourishment

• Lips dry out due to AC, dehydration, or mouth breathing

• Night is when body restores itself
  🌿 Ritual Fix: Apply Araah Lip Balm + a drop of ghee on your navel and lips before sleep.
