Physical
strength and appetite is highest in winter. In winters, the body retains heat
and protects itself from the cold weather. This strengthens the digestive
system and makes it capable of digesting large amounts of food. Seasonal food
available in this period is also rich and nutritious. This season is
particularly good for enhancing immunity.
Diet in winter:
During the
winter, one can take oils, fats, fresh milk products (yogurt, cheese), and
sweet, sour and salty foods. As the external atmosphere is cold, the body
retains heat and attempts to preserve it. As a result, the digestive fire
(jatharagni) becomes stronger and is able to metabolise heavy foods such as
fats and dairy products. Kidney beans, black beans (urad dal), grains and
products made from grains (wheat, rice), special herbal wines (not to be
consumed for intoxication) and honey can be taken. One should also drink warm
water or ginger tea in winter. Foods
that are sweet, sour and salty are especially beneficial in cold, dry winters.
Bitter and spicy foods should be avoided as they tend to increase dryness in
the body.
