Giving into food cravings and eating when you are not hungry can later cause food related allergies.

Eat freshly cooked food. Eat when food is hot. Avoid Gluten rich foods. Eat Jowar Roti instead. Your body will shed excess weight. You will feel light and energetic.

Sleep

The best time to sleep is before 10:30pm.

There is nothing called catching up with lost sleep. Damage done is done. You will experience the consequences.

When you keep yourself awake late into the night, your brain and neurons become hyperactive and this can trigger sleeplessness, dementia and Alzheimer\’s.

Trick 5 of 5 simple Ayurveda tricks

Packaged Food

Avoid all packaged foods and fast foods. Eat fresh fruits instead.

Packaged food do not have Prana. Prana is present in fruits and freshly cooked foods.

When we eat, the body derives Prana and nutrients from the food and throws out the rest as faecal matter or stools.

Packaged foods do not add any nutrition to the body nor do they have any Prana. They deplete your body of energy. You actually feel like eating more. This is one of the root causes of obesity in children. Cooking foods in microwave also destroys Prana and depletes your body of energy.
