Episode 026: What Do I Eat? Ayurvedic Nutrition, Tastes and Food Combining
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:
