An Ayurvedic View on Ahara - A Review
Abstract: Ahara (food) is one of the most fundamental pillars of life and health, described as Mahabhaisajya-the supreme medicine-in Ayurvedic science. Proper diet and disciplined dietary habits (Ahara Vidhi Vidhan) play a pivotal role in maintaining the equilibrium of Dosa, Dhatu, Mala, and Agni, thereby sustaining health and preventing disease. In the present era, due to irregular lifestyle and improper food habits, disorders of the digestive system and metabolic diseases are increasing rapidly. This review aims to evaluate classical and contemporary Ayurvedic literature regarding Ahara, its classification, importance, and practical application in health maintenance.
