According to Ayurveda, winter is the season of Kapha and Vata. It is important to keep the body warm and nourished.
Foods to Include:
- Warm Soups and Stews: Easy to digest and warming.
- Root Vegetables: Carrots, beets, and sweet potatoes are grounding.
- Spices: Ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, and black pepper help stimulate digestion and immunity.
- Ghee: Lubricates the tissues and keeps the body warm.
Avoid cold, raw foods and iced drinks as they can dampen the digestive fire (Agni).
