All the world seeks food. It is the life source of all beings. Clarity, longevity, intelligene, happiness, contentment, strength and knowledge are all rooted in food.
[Chacharyaarak]
Father of Ayurvedic Medicine
Ayurveda teaches that each individual has the power to heal himself. Thus, this science of life offers every one the freedom to recover health by understanding the body and its needs. Fundamental to the individual's ability to remain healthy according to Ayurveda, are the maintenance of a sound diet and a stable healthy routine.
