Other types of Apathya
Good
Morning and Namaskāra to all !
In previous
posts, we learned about Pathya and Apathya. I provided list of Apathya in last
post. But, concept of Apathya is not strictly adhered to type and name of particular
food only. It is very much broad concept which includes methods of preparation
of food, timing in which you are eating food, your mental condition while
eating food, mixing of one food with another one, Status of your hunger before
meal, Status of your digestive system before meal and so on. So kindly read it
carefully ones again –
1.
Methods
of preparation of food
2.
Timing
in which you are eating food
3.
Your
mental condition while eating food,
4.
Mixing
of one food with another one,
5.
Status
of your hunger before meal,
6.
Status
of your digestive system before meal
7.
And
many more factors including seasonal issues, place factor, constitution,
personal unwholesomeness and particular diseased condition.
Considering
these points, concept of Pathya and Apathya becomes more comprehensive and needs
to explain under more clear headings.
So,
here are some points under which I will explore this matter through the eyes of
ayurveda.
- 1. Adhyashana
- 2. Vishamashana
- 3. Samashana
- 4. Viruddhashana
- 5. Constitution i.e. Prakriti
- 6. Allergy or personal unwholesomeness
- 7. Diseases
Remember
!
Nothing
is said to be Pathya to all in each codition.
And
Nothing is said to be Apathya to all in each condition.
It
requires basis of consideration of above said points and much more.
Let
us discuss one by one in following posts.
