*Yoga over centuries has developed a concept of a balanced whole foods diet and an eating philosophy. These principles of good intake use powerful techniques which help in maintaining a strong and health body, a stress-free mind and a positive spirituality within this mixed up world.

*It has been observed that (East) Indian civilizations suffer least from bowel problems, constipation, indigestion and other food related disorders such as obesity. Do you know why? Because the Indian philosophy of food preparation and eating draws heavily from the yogic attitude of eating!

*Never has this yogic philosophy of a balanced whole foods diet be felt more than today when 97% of all health disorders can be traced to a faulty nutrition and diet.

*Yoga does not dissect food into vitamins, minerals, protein etc. The yogic philosophy is that the true benefits of these ingredients can be had only when they are NOT isolated but as much in their natural form as possible.

*Yoga & FoodYoga is the only science that has laid great emphasis on food over centuries. In fact, there is a whole branch – called Anna Yoga – dedicated to food for health and happiness.

*The key to true health is to have a balanced wholefoods diet. A balanced diet ensures that all the faculties of digestion work smoothly – absorption, assimilation and elimination. A impartial whole foods diet ensures a healthy you!!

*Read this report on how the rapidly increasing incidence of cancer can be traced down to faulty nutrition.

*It is extremely important that all these 3 aspects work well together. If all these aspects work in harmony it is extremely unlikely that you’ll suffer from health disorders and even obesity. Often “synthetic” or “processed” foods create conditions that disrupt this balance. This leads to several physical and psychological harms. Over years, this can have dangerous consequences.

 

what are complete foods?

Wholefoods are edible substances which are as close to their “whole” or natural state as likely. They have not been pre-processed in any way which would disturb their nourishment or flavor. They are therefore free of all processing additives or subtractions.

The overall idea of wholefoods, is to buy foods which are -

* As whole and in their most simple form as likely

* In season from as close to the source as possible

* As chemically and additive free as possible

* In bulk and not pre-packaged
