Food as Medicine - Ayurvedic Lecture

FOOD AS MEDICINE

Do you know that the entrance and exit door of your health and disease is your mouth?

‘Food As medicine’ is a thought evoking lecture on the physiological and psychological effects of food on humans health.

There are two kinds of food we take in - first, the food we chew in our mouth and swallow down to our stomach to get our physical energy, and secondly the thoughts, the mental food, we consume through our senses and process in our brain and swallow down to our heart, to generate our mental energy. If we know how to control these two areas of consumption - our physical and mental food - we can lead a healthy life without getting much troubles in our life.

Our kitchen is our pharmacology. When we make food with the six taste principle of Ayurveda according to our present health condition, we are becoming our own healer, and our food the nature’s medicine.

Through this lecture Janesh Vaidya explains how to choose clean food for your body and mind with the help of ayurveda and how to balance the agni, the fire element in our stomach that governs our digestive system and metabolism.

Understanding that food is your ultimate medicine and that your lifestyle is your therapy, through designing the right food and lifestyle disciplines according to the PDE (presently domination elements) in your body-mind system, you can start practicing Ayurveda and improve your health at any age of your life.

In addition to this, you will get the advice on how to practice smart shopping, heartfelt cooking, and conscious eating - to celebrate your each meal time with the power of nature’s healing food.
