FEEL UNDERWEIGHT
Table of ContentsAre you prone to a problem with 'Feel underweight'? Find your imbalances and create a diet for your Weight by taking the free weight loss quiz: AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON FEEL UNDERWEIGHTA low body weight may cause an unsettling sense of lightness, ungroundedness, or weakness. It is important to determine the cause of weight loss. Unexplained weight loss can be serious - please see a doctor if you have chronic weight loss issues. Common causes of weight loss:
Find grounding through exercises like gentle yoga, stretching, and light walking can prove beneficial. Avoid energy burning activities like thinking and vigorous exercise. Reduce hyperactivity. Take a tip from sumo wrestlers: The most effective way to gain weight is resting, and even sleeping, after meals. Take note of any fluid loss, as these will deplete electrolytes. Common signs of fluid loss include loose stools, clear urine, and excessive sweating. Avoid sweating where possible. Avoid cleansing, raw foods, and a diet high in greens - these activities increase weight loss. Avoid spicy foods, and other foods that increase metabolism. ARE YOU NEW TO AYURVEDA?

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS
ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?
Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?
Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharaceristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.

Ashwagandha would be better than Tulsi. Tulsi helps in weight loss.
Hi Pippa,
If you are underweight, than actually adding some kapha to your diet is good! And really important! It won't push you out of balance, it will bring you back. Sweet potatoes, ghee, homemade yogurt, more beans (spiced and well cooked), seitan, white basmati rice, paneer, nuts, and root veggies will help you regain your strength. Hope that helps!
