CLINICAL AYURVEDIC REVIEW
Treat yourself this Sunday morning to a brunch you won't forget. 'Poached Egg with Frisee & Walnuts' will add a gourmet crunch to your regular weekend menu. This meal is inviting to the eyes and enticing to the belly with its vibrant greens and sweet dressing - a great option to serve on special occasions like your wedding anniversary, following a promotion at work or among house guests.
The heaviness of eggs and walnuts are balanced by the addition of light frisee. You'll feel satisfied after this dish as eggs and walnuts are anabolic in nature, supporting the body to sustain and grow tissue, particularly after a period of weakness. The oily crunch of the nuts gives a texture variation not generally associated with poached eggs. You'll feel strong and ready for the day ahead after this breakfast.

INCREASES![Guna Help]()
Increases These Biocharacteristics (Gunas)
Functional Ayurveda helps you assess imbalances through 20 main biocharacteristics
(gunas).
Aggravating these characteristics weakens your body and causes imbalance.
By knowing which characteristics are habitually imbalanced in your body, you will be able to identify and correct imbalances before you get sick.
Every characteristic has an opposite which balances it (i.e. hot balances cold).
You restore balance by favoring diet and lifestyle choices that increase the opposite characteristic.

The Three Doshas / Body Types
According to the biocharacteristic theory of medicine,
people tend to get sick, over and over again, due to habitual causes and imbalances that are unique to the person.
Your body type summarizes this tendency, showing you the 'type' of conditions and imbalances that frequently challenge your health & wellness.
Using body type, you can also identify remedies likely to improve your strength and resiliency.
Your body type identifies physical and mental characteristics as well as your personal strengths and weaknesses.
The calculation of your body type is based on your medical history.
The 3 functional body types
(doshas),
are Catabolic (Vata), Metabolic (Pitta), and Anabolic (Kapha).
Catabolic individuals tend to break down body mass into energy. They are easily stimulated, hyperactive, underweight and dry.
Metabolic individuals tend to burn or use energy. They tend to be rosy-cheeked, easily irritated, focused, driven, and easily inflamed.
Anabolic individuals tend to store energy as body mass. If they store too much energy, they could gain weight easily and have congestion. Anabolic people tend to be stable and grounded.
