In Ayurveda, they believe that poor digestion, or Agnimandya, is at the heart of most health issues. When our digestive fire, known as Agni, isn’t strong enough, food doesn’t get broken down properly. This can lead to a buildup of toxins, referred to as Ama, in the body. These toxins can throw our bodily functions out of whack, weaken our immune system, and create imbalances in the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, which can result in various illnesses. To keep disease at bay and promote good health, it’s essential to strengthen digestion through herbal remedies, a balanced diet, and a consistent daily routine.
