Winter regimen

 Winter regimen 


Introduction

Winter season is a cold season. And I think all of us like winter season that cold breeze ,snowfall, and cold climate make all of us lazy and we tend to sleep  in cozy warm blanket .This is the beauty of winter that nights are long and days are short so we get more time to sleep .
But because of cold outside the channels inside the body get blocked vata dosha is predominant in winters .The leaves become dry and air outside also becomes dry and cause dryness in body and digestive fire also increases 
This is very common that we feel very hungry in winter as soon as we get up from the bed becoz of high digestive fire. Food is digested very fast 

As there is predominance of vata dosha the skin become dry , lips get cracked , so to keep them moistirizing one should eat unctuous substance like ghee and should use seasame oil in cooking that will keep body nourished 
 If proper amount of nourished food is not taken then all 7 dhatus will not get nutrients properly and body will burn the tissue and emaciation can occur 

In winter it is advised to eat unctuous food ,
Food which are sweet in taste , salty in taste ,and sour in taste  this taste normally occur in winter season 
If consume this taste then our will remain banlanced 

 Note: sweet taste doesn't mean that one should eat sweets that are avalaible in shops ,unctuous doesnt mean that one should it deep fried foods and excess oil in food healthy fats present in nuts, milk
Ghee should be consume 
Salty doesnt mean that one will eat more salty food .seasonal fruits and vegetables should be consumed in every season and also one which grows in ur region should be taken 

Vegetables available in winter season
 
 





Fruits that are available in the season should be consumed 









Fermented food such as south indian food which has sour taste should be eaten in winter season such as idli ,dosa ,medu vada
Etc

Dokhla and many gujarati people can also have curd which also sour in taste 



 

 

Note : people having acidity problem, burning senstion , pitta problem and rise in body temperature and ulcer problem problem related to pitta should not eat  sour food and sour fruits in excess quantity

One can al so eat mutton soup, fish available in particular region 



Grains 

Black gram (phaseolus mungo)

Bajra (millet)





Lifestyle modification in winters 

One should massage body with seasame oil (tila taila) before taking bath it will moisturize ur body and mitigate excess vata dosha and should take a bath with luke warm water 

Note : one which have very dry skin should do the oil massage on regular bases and one with oily skin there is no need of it 

One should cover the body with sweaters and head should be covered well and foot should be well covered with socks so that body remains warm in winter 




One should not drink ,eat cold food and drinks and should not stay in cold climated excessively 

"In this one should follow the winter regimen to keep oneself fit and healthy"

Amlapitta Introduction When we eat food, it goes down through the food pipe and is stored in a bag called stomach for about 1.5 – 2 hours.  Here, the food undergoes disintegration into very small particles. Hydrochloric acid kills many of the micro organisms that we might ingest in food and a small portion of the food is absorbed. After 1.5 hours, the food is pushed down to the intestine for further digestion. If the inner lining of stomach is damaged or irritated or inflamed due to causes like heavy alcohol consumption etc. the condition is called gastritis. (Gastrum = stomach, itis = inflammation). Gastritis , acid reflux , chest burn . In ayurvedic system it is also called as Amlapitta Causes ‘Hurry’, ‘Worry’, and ‘Curry’ are the three main reasons for the disease.
