Ayurveda
is the science of life, a 5,000-year-old traditional holistic
system
of
well-being from India. 'ayur' means 'of life' and Veda'
means 'knowledge'. Ayurveda is the knowledge of longevity
which offers healing, rejuvenation and self-realization
through balanced food, herbs, yoga, massage, aroma, and
meditation.
Ayurveda teaches us to pay
attention to how and what we eat, and to take responsibility
for our health.
Ayurveda is very clear when
it comes to food. Sattvic (pure) food is needed to heal
and maintain good health and must incorporate six tastes
in every meal: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, astringent
and pungent.
Modern medical science also
recommends a vegetarian diet for good health and prevention
of stress-related , health problems.
