Rules for safe weight loss with Ayurveda

Ayurveda asks you not to focus on calories or fad diets, but to ensure your eating habits are your lifestyle.

INGREDIENTS
The most important aspect of this is ensuring you eat seasonal, fresh and locally produced food. This is the most important rule. 

If you are still reading this, then you are ready for the other rules! 

COOKING
Always eat cooked food, not raw. Cooking replicates digestion and for people with weak digestion, cooked food is always easier to digest.

EATING
Eat every 4 hours and eat until you are 75% full.

Eat slowly. No gulping food or air.

Eat mindfully. Keep phones, computers, TV switched off mode. Think of it like the time when your flight is landing. Watching media while eating will cause disturbance to your digestion.

Eat with your hands. Your fingers help absorb the five elements of food.
