            Description regarding shali has been made previously in the post naming “Sharad: October heat 2. For preparing roti or chapatti flours of wheat and barley should be used. For making vegetables, one should use smaller variety of radish and that of cucumber along with other locally available fruit vegetables. Dal should be prepared from mung i..e green gram. For preparing sweet, rock candy sugar should be used. Ghee should be used for processing the vegetables and dal. Ghee of Indian cow which is originally known as gau or go or gay, should be used along with roti and rice. According to researches, it doesn’t increase bad cholesterol. Use of milk and milk products like buttermilk is also recommended. Milk of Indian cow which is light to digest and having other hundreds of properties in it, should be preferred. Milks of buffalo or goat could be used in case of unavailability of cows milk. Among fruits pomegranate and grapes are good. Rock salt should be preferred instead of common salt.  Rock salt is cold in nature and beneficial for eyes on contrary to common salt which is hot in nature and harmful to eyes when consumed in large quantity. Medicines should not be indicated for daily use. But however these two medicinal herbs viz chebulic myrobalan i.e. harad and Indian gooseberry i.e. aamla, could be used on daily basis. These two herbs maintain health of all tissues and cells and all the systems including digestive one. This function of harad and aamla is named as rasayana. Chebulic myrobalan is contraindicated in pregnancy and in pitta prakriti (Constitution of body having influence of piita.). All this is about pathya, which should be practiced daily. Later posts will describe about apathya. To be continued…..
