Hippocrates, who propounded the basics of modern medicine said, “Let food be your medicine and your medicine be your foodâ€. For many years now, people have always believed that food plays a very important role in controlling your moods and temperament. Even the age-old Ayurveda believes that our eating habits decide what we are made up of and how we behave. Doctors always suggest people to stick to a completely vegetarian diet because the benefits outweigh risks and keep the body disease-free. Fresh greens and vegetables lightly cooked in salt are always soft on the stomach and digest without upsetting the stomach.
People eating non-vegetarian food are prone to weight issues, abdominal disorders and many behavioral problems too. Food like fish, mutton, chicken etc produce a lot of heat in the body and cause inflammation of the internal organs. Adding fuel to fire is the way of cooking. Usually, non-vegetarian food is cooked in heavy spices, oil and heat producing condiments. Imagine the chaos all these create in your tummy thereby leading to digestive problems like acid refluxes, constipation and ulcers. The story doesn’t just end here. Non-vegetarian food when compared to vegetables and greens can cause mood fluctuations and also delay speech and cognitive developments in children.
Owing to our crazy lifestyles and odd work hours, it is better that we stick to a pure vegetarian diet. Only that can save our health and the money we earn!
