Ayurvedic nutrition

A Holistic Approach to complete health

Food quality

Ayurveda recommends a balanced diet that includes fresh, organic and local foods. Food should be prepared with care and be as natural as possible.

Diet customization

There is no universal diet in Ayurveda. Each person is unique, and nutritional needs vary according to one’s dosha type (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha). A personalized diet takes into account health, age, season, digestion and other individual factors.

Basic principles in Ayurvedic Nutrition

Tastes – Ayurveda classifies food into six tastes: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, pungent and astringent. A balanced diet should include all of these tastes.

Digestion – The quality of digestion is essential. Food should be easy to digest and not overload the digestive system.

Food Combinations – Ayurveda provides detailed guidelines on food combinations. For example, avoid combining fruit with other types of food.

Conscious eating – Ayurveda urges us to be present in the moment of eating. We eat mindfully and gratefully, without being distracted by television or other activities.

Therapeutic Foods – Ayurveda considers food as a form of medicine. Certain foods have therapeutic properties and can help balance the doshas. For example, ginger has anti-inflammatory effects and turmeric supports the immune system.

In conclusion, Ayurvedic Nutrition is not just limited to food choices but involves a holistic approach to health. By following Ayurvedic principles, we can achieve full health and longevity. 

Through Ayurvedic practice, we have accumulated valuable knowledge that we can use wisely, depending on the typology of each person and their medical history, eating habits and the deficiencies they face.

So, we invite you to feel the effects of Ayurveda by adapting your nutritional style.
