52 - Jody Vassallo: What Should I Eat?
Today Jody talks about how Ayurveda looks at digestion and how we can learn what foods are best suited for the different body types and their relevant doshas.
Digestive fire or agni is dependent on a range of things, the food we consumed yesterday and how it was broken down, our prana, sleep and lifestyle choices. When digestive fire it can not only impact our digestive system, it can lead to a change in our mood and our behaviour.
Jody discusses the six tastes and the elements that make up each taste and how each one of the six tastes impacts the doshas.
