Kitchen Remedies


Now that you have a very general idea of Ayurvedic medicine and the focus of food and diet in the balancing of health you can now take this information with you as you explore different approaches to health care, treating disease, and eating a nutritious diet. Below I have listed some of the kitchen remedies that are found in Ayurveda. I have focused my attention on those foods that have been discussed in previous expeditions to Bolivia and Brazil as well as some more common foods that you may find in your kitchen. As you read about these foods think about your constitution and how these foods could help balance your health based on Ayurvedic principles.
