Dietetics in Ayurveda

Dr. Jagruti Chaple

Abstract :

The healthy bodies as well as the diseases are nothing but the outcome of Ahara. Out of all the factors for maintenance of positive health, properly food taking occupies the most important position because diet or Ahara is the basic medicament other than any substance. Though one is not able to sustain life without Ahara. In today‘s fast life, many norms regarding diet & regimen have been compromised which is showing the overall declining status of health in the society. Ahara and its related codes and conducts have been long forgotten by the human being; hence to evaluate this ancient science of dietetics this study was undertaken. For this total positive health, Ayurveda has given three sub pillars – Ahara , Nidra and Brahmacharya which comes under the social medicine. These are the code and conducts for taking diet of any dietetic science having physiological and functional consideration.
