Ayurveda is a very vast and ancient medical science. Unlike other medical sciences, instead of focusing on treatment of any particular disease, Ayurveda focuses more on the healthy living and well being.
For healthy living, Ayurveda emphasizes on consuming right kind of diet which is healthy and nutritious. In Ayurveda, food is considered not only as mixture of the basic ingredients like proteins, vitamins, fats and carbohydrates, but something, which serves as a source of energy for mind and soul.
The basis of Ayurveda diet is the concept of tri-dosha, or the system of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta and Kapha (the equivalent of the three body types, ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorph).
According to this ancient system of healing, the formula for your optimum health, ideal weight, increased longevity, vitality and fulfillment in life is to:
What we eat affects our emotions and can create a predisposition for both psychological and physical disorders. Just as wrong emotion can upset our digestion, so wrong digestion can upset our emotions.”
The most important principle in the Ayurvedic Diet is that your food is fresh (without pesticides, additives and other chemicals), seasonal, and as often as possible local. Fresh doesn't, however, mean raw. The best are freshly cooked, whole meals.
Contrary to what you might think, eating Ayurvedic diet doesn't mean eating only legumes, rice and vegetables. Basic Ayurveda diet principles can be applied to any cuisine, be it Mediterranean, Asian, European, or whichever one you prefer.
There is a elaborative discussion on the diets considering one's tridoshas(vata-pitta-kapha),importance of six tastes on ayurvedic diets,concept of Agni/metabolic fire ,good food habits,how to maintain harmony between health and taste,which has to come up here gradually...
