Or if ghee is really as beneficial for everyone as it may seem? How does Kombucha affect the cracks on your tongue? Below, you can access charts from over 125 research studies on food and herbs.

At the Joyful Belly School of Ayurveda, we are passionate about answering questions just like this. In fact, we are the only US-based school of Ayurveda who regularly publishes novel research. Explained clearly, practically and physiologically, our scientifically-tested information provides a robust resource for your clients and your own further education.
