You are what you eat
is inscribed in the ancient texts of Ayurveda, the science of life. In our fast-paced world, this
saying is still – or perhaps even more so than ever – of great importance. Today, we pay very little
attention to the food we eat and what influence these foods have on our well-being. Nutrition
according to the Ayurvedic principle is therefore more relevant than ever for a healthy and
mindful lifestyle.
In Ayurveda, food is tailored to the individual needs and body type of each person and great
emphasis is placed on regional and seasonal ingredients. The goal of the Ayurvedic diet and
way of life is to balance body, mind and soul. An imbalance of those, caused by external influences
or an inner tension, will sooner or later lead to illness and discomfort.
