According to Ayurveda, fresh, cooked food is considered to be the most nourishing and easily digestible. Here are some reasons why fresh, cooked food is emphasized in Ayurveda:
- Increases digestibility: Cooking breaks down food and makes it easier for the body to digest and absorb its nutrients.
- Enhances taste and aroma: Cooking enhances the taste and aroma of food, which can stimulate the digestive fire (Agni) and increase appetite.
- Kills harmful bacteria: Cooking kills harmful bacteria and parasites that may be present in food, reducing the risk of foodborne illness.
- Reduces toxins: Cooking can reduce the levels of natural toxins present in some foods, such as lectins in grains and goitrogens in cruciferous vegetables.
- Supports overall health: Consuming fresh, cooked food is believed to support overall health and balance the three doshas (biological energies) in the body, according to Ayurveda
- It’s important to note that Ayurveda also emphasizes the importance of consuming seasonal, locally grown foods and avoiding processed and preserved foods. Additionally, Ayurveda suggests eating food that is appropriate for your individual needs and digestive capacity, and avoiding overeating and eating at irregular times.
