Why Oats May Not Be as Healthy as You Think

The Untold Story of a “Superfood” That Wasn’t Always for Humans For decades, oats have been marketed as the ultimate health food—high in fiber, cholesterol-lowering, and perfect for weight loss. But is this really true? Or has the story of oats been carefully packaged and sold, masking their less-than-ideal impact on digestion and metabolism? Let’s peel back the label. A Brief History: From Animal Feed to Breakfast Cereal Historically, oats were primarily used as livestock feed—especially for horses and cattle in Europe and North America. They were never a staple grain for human consumption in traditional societies. In fact: So how did oats become a breakfast staple? The Industrial Shift In the early 1900s, oat producers were looking for ways to profit from surplus production. With clever marketing and corporate lobbying, oats were gradually repositioned as a “heart-healthy” food. The FDA approved the cholesterol-lowering claim of beta-glucan (a soluble fiber in oats) based on limited studies, and oats became a… Continue reading Why Oats May Not Be as Healthy as You Think

Why Sleeping After 11 PM Aggravates Vata — And What It Means for Your Health

In the still silence of night, when the world sleeps, the human body enters its most sacred phase of healing, digestion, and rejuvenation. Ayurveda—the timeless science of life—teaches us that our well-being is not just shaped by what we eat or how we move, but when we rest. Sleeping beyond 11 PM is more than just a bad habit. It is a quiet disruptor, an energetic trespass that particularly aggravates Vata dosha, leading to cascading imbalances that affect the mind, body, and spirit. Let’s explore why this is so, and what happens when we violate nature’s clock. The Wisdom of the Universe: Understanding the Circadian Energy Flow In Ayurveda, time is divided into cycles governed by the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas aren’t just inside us; they govern the rhythms of nature and time itself. Here is the daily energetic cycle: When you stay awake past 10 PM, you trespass into Pitta time—a time meant for internal digestion,… Continue reading Why Sleeping After 11 PM Aggravates Vata — And What It Means for Your Health

Cholesterol & Ayurveda: Understanding the Root Cause and Natural Healing

“Cholesterol is not the villain; imbalance is.” In the modern world, the word cholesterol often triggers fear and concern. People immediately think of heart attacks, blocked arteries, and lifelong dependence on statins. But what if we told you that cholesterol, in itself, is not the problem? Ayurveda, the ancient science of life, looks deeper—at the root cause of imbalance rather than just the symptoms. It offers a holistic approach to restoring harmony in the body, mind, and spirit. Let’s explore how Ayurveda views cholesterol, why statins may not be the ideal solution, and how natural therapies like Liver Basti and Hridya Basti can help heal from the inside out. What is Cholesterol According to Ayurveda? In Ayurveda, cholesterol is not labeled as a harmful substance. Instead, it is seen as a vital meda dhatu (fat tissue) that supports cell structure, hormones, and nervous system function. The problem arises when this fat tissue becomes excessive, toxic, or stagnant—leading to imbalance. The… Continue reading Cholesterol & Ayurveda: Understanding the Root Cause and Natural Healing

Understanding Gallbladder Stones through Ayurveda: Myths, Causes & Natural Healing

Gallbladder stones, also known as gallstones, are a rising concern in modern times, often linked to sedentary lifestyles and poor eating habits. While modern medicine may suggest surgery as the only remedy, Ayurveda offers a more holistic perspective—tracing the root cause, balancing the body’s energies, and promoting natural healing. Let’s dive into the Ayurvedic understanding of this condition and bust some myths along the way. What are Gallbladder Stones in Ayurveda? In Ayurveda, gallstones are referred to as “Pittashmari” (Pitta – bile; Ashmari – stone). These are crystalline formations in the gallbladder, arising due to an imbalance in the doshas, primarily Pitta dosha. When Pitta becomes excessive due to improper diet, stress, and suppressed emotions, it causes the bile to become concentrated and stagnant, eventually leading to the formation of stones. Which Organ is Responsible? While the gallbladder is where the stones are found, Ayurveda sees the liver (Yakrit) as the root organ responsible. Here’s why: Breaking the Myths Myth… Continue reading Understanding Gallbladder Stones through Ayurveda: Myths, Causes & Natural Healing

Ayurveda & Skin Diseases: Healing Beyond the Surface

Your Skin Is a Mirror of Your Inner Health In Ayurveda, the skin is more than a surface — it’s a reflection of your inner balance and overall wellness. Conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, urticaria, and pigmentation are considered indicators of internal doshic imbalance. Therefore, skin diseases treatment in Ayurveda goes far beyond external applications; it begins with detoxifying, nourishing, and harmonizing the body-mind system. Root Causes of Skin Diseases in Ayurveda According to Ayurvedic texts, skin disorders often stem from aggravated Pitta dosha, impaired Agni (digestive fire), and Ama (toxins) circulating in the blood. Common triggers include: Over time, such imbalances affect Rasa and Rakta Dhatus, and if untreated, can penetrate deeper tissues like Mamsa and Meda, making treatment more complex. Holistic Skin Diseases Treatment in Ayurveda Instead of suppressing symptoms, Ayurveda focuses on root-level healing through personalized therapies and herbs. 1. Virechana (Panchakarma Detox):Cleanses the liver and purifies the blood, ideal for chronic issues like eczema, acne,… Continue reading Ayurveda & Skin Diseases: Healing Beyond the Surface

Why Putting Oil or Ghee in the Nose is Essential as per Ayurveda

The Nose — The Gateway to Health and Vitality In Ayurveda, the nose is far more than a breathing organ—it is the “doorway to the brain” (Shiraso Dwaram). The daily practice of putting ghee or medicated oil into the nostrils is called Nasya Kriya, an ancient technique that balances the doshas in the head and neck region, improves immunity, and promotes clarity of mind and longevity. Timing is Everything: Why Nasya Must Be Done During Kapha Kaal According to Ayurveda, the Kapha time of day—between 6:00 AM to 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM—is the most effective window for performing Nasya. Why Kapha Kaal? Important Caution: Don’t Do Nasya When It’s Raining or Cloudy As per Ayurvedic texts, Nasya should not be done: This is because the atmospheric moisture disturbs Vata and Kapha, which may cause the oil to get trapped in sinuses, potentially leading to heaviness or congestion. Always ensure the weather is dry and stable before… Continue reading Why Putting Oil or Ghee in the Nose is Essential as per Ayurveda

Almond Milk in Ayurveda: Nectar or Not?

In a world increasingly drawn to dairy alternatives, almond milk shines as a favorite. But as we always say at Anammyaa Wellness, Ayurveda isn’t about trends—it’s about balance. So, is almond milk truly nourishing, or can it disturb your doshas? Let’s dive into what Ayurveda says about almond milk—its properties, benefits, drawbacks, preparation, and who should or shouldn’t consume it. Ayurvedic Wisdom on Almond Milk Ayurveda reveres almonds (Vatadha) as sattvic, nourishing for the mind and body, enhancing ojas (vital immunity), and strengthening the seven dhatus (body tissues). When prepared correctly, almond milk is balya (strength-giving), bruhana (tissue-building), and medhya (mind-nourishing). Benefits of Almond Milk as per Ayurveda 1. Pacifies Vata and Pitta Doshas Warm, unctuous, and mildly sweet—almond milk’s qualities balance the dryness of Vata and the heat of Pitta.( for Pita aggravated individual consume very little quantity as it slightly hot in nature ) 2. Builds Ojas A regular dose of almond milk (prepared right!) supports vitality, longevity,… Continue reading Almond Milk in Ayurveda: Nectar or Not?
