DIET

The diet prescribed in Ayurveda can help you live a happier, healthier and longer life.
When you eat an unhealthy / wrong food / overeat or have a poor digestion, you develop toxins(Ama) in the body. This ama is the main cause of all the diseases in the body. Ama is sticky and heavy. It accumulates in the body and sticks to various channels in the body and blocks them. Everyone has some weak organ or tissue. Wherever Ama finds a weakness, it causes the disease in that organ. To prevent the formation of ama dosha, follow your biological or ayurvedic clock.
