AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON AVOIDS HUMIDITY

Kapha people tend to store excess water. They avoid humidity and anything soggy, including soggy foods because it resembles the way they feel: congested, clammy and heavy. Since Kapha people crave heavy foods without sogginess, they are seduced by crunchy, light, airy baked goods like cookies, bread, and salty chips. However, salt causes water retention and should be avoided.
