While tap water is convenient, it may contain impurities harmful to health. Ayurveda recommends using boiled and filtered water (Ushnodaka) to improve digestion, detoxify the body, and boost immunity. You can also add herbs like tulsi (holy basil) or ginger to your water for additional benefits.
Ayurveda advises minimizing processed and microwaved foods, as they lack prana (life energy). Instead, consume freshly prepared, warm meals cooked using traditional methods. Use clay, iron, or copper vessels to enhance food quality and ensure better digestion.
Flu or cold symptoms indicate an imbalance in the body’s doshas. According to Ayurveda, consuming turmeric milk (golden milk) with a pinch of black pepper can reduce symptoms. Additionally, steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil and gargling with warm salt water help clear nasal passages and throat infections.
In Ayurveda, heart health is deeply connected to the balance of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. While modern medicine addresses heart issues through surgery, Ayurveda emphasizes prevention and natural healing. Practices such as following a Sattvic diet, consuming herbs like Arjuna and Ashwagandha, and adopting Pranayama (breathing exercises) help strengthen the heart and improve circulation naturally.
