How Does This Ayurvedic Food Improve Wellness?
CLINICAL AYURVEDIC REVIEW
Wherever salt appears in the body,
water follows. Salt encourages secretions in membranes and glands, including the sinuses and GI tract, and juiciness of the glands, stimulating stomach acid and
nourishing the adrenals.
Thus salt promotes good
digestion and elimination of the bowels. Salt cleanses the body and dissolves congestion and hardened areas. It nourishes the nervous tissue.
Salt effectively combats dryness in Vata but causes excess water retention for Kapha. As salt increases water retention it also increases blood pressure provoking Kapha dosha.
Salt extracts fluids from cells into the intercelluar space, causing
swelling in lymphatic vessels and capillary beds. It hardens muscles, damages bones and causes premature aging.
In excess salt causes vomiting.
