A balanced diet is a productive ayurvedic tool to achieve a balanced and healthy body.The Tri-Doshas if kept in constant balance can help heal, revitalise and rejuvenate the body to a great deal. A person with imbalance in any specific dosha can be cured wit a germane diet that targets to bring down the aggravated dosha and place it in proper balance with other doshas.

A person of Vata type display a predominant trait of being under constant motion. The amount of energy exhibited is enormous but fatigue captures them easily. Thus a calming and strengthening ayurveda diet is best defined for them. Warm, moist and heavy type of food with sweet, sour and salty rasa in small amount should be taken frequently and regularly. Raw, junk, dried food are not advisable as well as food with bitter, pungent or astringent taste are to be avoided. Summers call for sour and salty food while winter recommends salty and pungent food along with sweet for both seasons. The non-vegetarian diet especially fish suits Vata types along with dairy products, spices, nuts and oils.

Vata being a cold dry dosha asks for warm and nourishing food and hence dissuades cold dishes for vata imbalances. Vata dosha is aggravated during seasons such as autumn and winter. This asks for a shift in ayurveda diet under the advice of the ayurveda doctor. In other cases where the doshic tendencies are in a combined form, the diet is a mixture of the ingredients recommended for both prakrutis.

This is very interesting! I'm a friend of Lissa Coffey ( author of What's Your Dosha baby) and I know she follows an ayurvedic lifestyle.

I will have to do some research on ayurvedic diets.

Thanks for sharing.
