A Tale of Three Fruits: The Best Herbal Food for Your Skin
by Dr. Rama Kant Mishra
According to Ayurveda, perfect digestion is the basis of all health, including skin health. When the digestion is perfect, the body processes everything we eat or drink efficiently and completely - either into nutrients to build new cells and tissues, or wastes that are flushed out, leaving the internal machinery squeaky clean. But when-the digestion is sluggish, this processing is both imperfect and incomplete. As a result, the partially digested food, referred to as ama in Ayurveda, starts to clog the channels of the body. This, in turn, further disrupts the free flow of elimination of wastes. A vicious cycle of toxin build-up in the body and the skin is thus set in motion, leading to such problems as dull, lifeless looking skin, that ages more rapidly than it should, causing skin eruptions and disease.
