Balance Your Dosha with Proper Food

Ayurveda has been practiced for thousands of years and it executes on three doshas which are the derivatives of five elements of the earth. They are
  • Vata – Air, Ether
  • Pitta – Fire, Water
  • Kapha – Earth, Water
The dosha balance for each and every person is unique. This unique natural dosha balance of an individual depends on the lifestyle, body type, and habits of those persons. When the dosha balance gets lost, health issues will occur. At that time, this traditional medical system is used to normalize body functions with proper food and other activities like yoga and meditations. Based on the Ayurvedic medicinal system, digestion is a significant process in preventing disease. The efficient digestion process happens with the help of element fire (Agni – sun) and the Dosha balance. When the Sun is at peak (during the afternoon), the power of Agni is stronger. Therefore eating heavy food during afternoon time gets digested easier. Improper digestion may cause AMA i.e., toxin (partially digested food and acts against the immune system) which is the main reason for diseases and degeneration. Undigested food may be accumulated as a toxic substance. The Ayurvedic system uses natural ingredients to balance Dosha, provide better digestion, and prevent toxic stagnation in the body.
