What Do I Eat? Ayurvedic Nutrition, Tastes and Food Combining

May 03, 2018


Episode 26

Episode #26 is all about Ayurvedic nutrition. It’s so confusing these days with so much information on different eating regimes and diets! Ayurveda has a very logical approach to nutrition. First of all, Ayurveda tells us that there’s no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to food. Ayurveda takes an individualised approach to nutrition and what you eat depends on your constitution or mind/body type. In this episode, Colette breaks it all down and talks about:

  • Ayurvedic nutrition vs. Conventional nutrition
  • The six tastes of Ayurveda – sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent and astringent 
  • The affect of each taste has on our body
  • How each taste affects the doshas of Vata, Pitta and Kapha
  • Dietary recommendations for each dosha
  • The affects of each taste on the mind and the emotions
  • The affect of too much of each taste on the body and mind
  • The affect of too little of each taste on the body and mind
  • The importance of food 
  • Ayurvedic guidlines for eating
  • Choosing the right foods for you
  • Poor food combinations
