“Nutrition from an Ayurvedic Perspective
1) Food needs to be hot (usually cooked)
2) Food needs to be tasty and easy to digest
3) Food needs to be eaten in the proper amounts, neither too much nor too little
4) Food needs to be eaten on an empty stomach, after your last meal has been digested, and not before
5) Foods need to work together and not contradict each other in their actions.
6) Foods need to be eaten in pleasant surroundings with the proper equipment for their enjoyment.
7) Eating should not be rushed.
8) Eating should not be a horrendously drawn out affair, either.
9) It is best to focus on your food while eating.
10) Only eat food which is nourishing to your particular constitution and which suits your mental and emotional temperament.”
