Ayurveda, an ancient system of holistic medicine originating in India, believes that successful and healthy weight involves a balance of many factors such as nutrition, activity, life and consciousness.
Here are some Ayurvedic principles and practices that can help you get rid of belly fat:
Mindful Moderation:
Ayurveda is about healthy eating, which means paying attention to your body's hunger, thirst, and all its symptoms. Do not overeat and do not eat large meals, especially before bedtime. Instead, choose small, balanced meals throughout the day.
Choose the right food:
Ayurveda divides food into different types based on their quality (strength).
To lose belly fat, focus on foods that balance the Kapha dosha, which is often associated with body weight. Choose hot, soft, acrid, bitter and pungent foods. Include plenty of vegetables, whole grains, protein, and spices like ginger, turmeric, and black pepper.
Exercise regularly:
Exercise regularly to speed up your metabolism and burn more fat. Choose exercises that suit your body type and energy level. Ayurveda recommends practices such as yoga and brisk walking for balance.
Water:
Drinking warm water every day can help improve digestion and speed up metabolism. Do not drink cold water as it reduces the digestive system (agni) according to Ayurveda.
Get enough sleep:
Aim for 7-8 hours of good sleep each night. Establish a consistent sleep schedule and don't stay up late, as this can affect your body's health.
Additional Digestive Spices:
Spices such as ginger, cumin, coriander, and fennel are known for their digestive benefits. Adding this spice to food can help improve digestion and metabolism.
