Grapefruit with Honey and Ginger
Simple, cleansing, sweet, bitter, pungent and citric!
ayurveda notes
Grapefruits help kapha cleanse in springtime and increase fat metabolism . Raw honey, the only safe sweetener for kapha, both improves the taste and increases fat metabolism. Ginger gives this recipe an 'agni' kick - igniting and stoking the digestive fire, liquefying kapha.
Honey Mustard Radishes
A clearing, detoxifying dish. A perfect spring or summer salad.
ayurveda notes
Radishes are great for detox, especially the liver. Targeted for kapha dosha.
Peppermint Cardamom Tea
ayurveda notes
Peppermint and cardamom clear improve sluggish agni and burping by clearing stomach stagnation from kapha.
Curried Chick Pea with Collard Greens
Made with South Indian style spices like turmeric, mustard, fenugreek and cumin.
ayurveda notes
Ayurveda treats obesity with foods that are difficult to digest but not very nutritional. Chick peas are difficult to digest and protein instead of carbohydrate rich. They are also astringent helping to tonify loose, flabby tissues.
The large amount of pungent spices and the mixing of legumes with greens targets pacifying kapha dosha.
