Indigestion, bloating, acid reflux, diarrhea, or constipation?
In Ayurveda, agni (fire) is viewed as the source of life.
It’s literally the gatekeeper of good health and a metaphor for all metabolic functions in the body. Everything you eat is looked upon as an offering to agni — and what’s a more potent, direct offering than food?
What you eat can nourish and strengthen this fire, boosting your digestive system — or it can smother it, leading to an impaired, weakened, or imbalanced agni.
According to Ayurveda, harmful foods, such as fried foods, processed meats, and very cold foods, can create undigested residue that forms toxins, or in Ayurvedic terms “ama.” Ama is described as the root cause of disease.
So, the health goal is to balance this metabolic fire. When it comes to good eating habits, here’s the best advice most Ayurvedic practitioners give:
Eat only when hungry.
*Keep gaps of at least three hours between meals, so the previous meal is digested.
*Avoid smothering agni with cold, wet, spicy, oily, and fried food.
“A diet of light simple foods is the best. Alkalis help regulate this gastric fire. Ghee stimulates agni and improves digestion. Proper chewing is essential to good digestion.
Stomach Bloating, burning sensation in chest and stomach, hyperacidity, constipation are the primary symptoms for the emergence of gastrointestinal disorders.
