As processed foods become more common, the healthy, holistic conversation continues to shift towards highlighting the importance of why we should avoid these foods and prioritize whole foods in their natural, freshly prepared form. Ayurveda takes this a step further by teaching us not only what foods to eat, but when and how to eat for optimal digestion and nutrient assimilation. More than just reviewing these important rules, this course will explain in detail what happens inside the body when we eat improper foods or foods in the improper way. We will also go into greater detail about the various foods groups and how to choose foods in accordance with what is best for each prakruti.
