Ayurveda Aahar represents an approach to food rooted in Ayurvedic principles and supported by a defined regulatory framework.

The Food Safety and Standards (Ayurveda Aahar) Regulations, 2022 provide a regulatory pathway for Ayurveda Aahar, including a Category A mechanism, establishing a structured framework for its production and communication.

To understand Ayurveda Aahar, three key concepts come together: Diet, Tradition and Standards. Diet refers to what we consume; Tradition encompasses the knowledge and practices passed down through generations; and Standards provide a framework for responsible food production and communication.

Together, these elements help build a clearer understanding of Ayurveda Aahar and its role in promoting informed food practices.

In Ayurveda, "Agni" broadly refers to the factors responsible for digestion and transformation.

Ayurveda describes different states of Agni to represent variations in digestive function. Samagni refers to balanced digestive function, while Mandagni denotes diminished digestive capacity. Tikshnagni describes very strong digestive capacity, and Vishamagni refers to irregular or variable digestive function. Together, these descriptions form an important part of the Ayurvedic framework for understanding digestion and its different patterns.

तनाव से राहत, शरीर में मजबूती की ओर एक कदम!

सेतुबंधासन शरीर को सक्रिय और संतुलित रखने वाला योगासन है। इसके अभ्यास से कमर के निचले हिस्से की मांसपेशियों को मजबूती मिलती है, उदर के अंगों में कसावट आती है तथा पाचन क्षमता बेहतर होती है। नियमित अभ्यास से कब्ज से राहत पाने में भी मदद मिल सकती है।

सावधानी: अल्सर एवं हर्निया से ग्रस्त व्यक्तियों को यह आसन नहीं करना चाहिए।

Exercise isn’t one-size-fits-all!

In Ayurveda, the right amount and type of physical activity should be personalised based on your age, Prakriti (body constitution), health status and the season.

Listen to your body, move with balance & live with Ayurveda.
