Avoid mixing hot and cold drinks to maintain digestive health.
Sipping hot water aids in digestion, detoxification, and blood circulation.
Reheating Foods
Reheating foods after a few hours can disrupt digestion and prana (life force) in the food.
Opt for room temperature foods to maintain digestive balance and preserve prana.
Gradual transition of temperatures is ideal for cooking vegetables and preserving prana.
Buttermilk (Takra) Consumption
Buttermilk (takra) is a powerful Ayurvedic beverage with anti-inflammatory and cooling properties.

Consuming plain buttermilk can be too astringent; add a pinch of salt or dash of rose water for balance.
Incorporating herbs like coriander and mint enhances the taste and therapeutic effects of buttermilk.
Coffee and Caffeine Addiction
Coffee and caffeine addiction can have significant impacts on health, often underestimated.
Consider reassessing your relationship with coffee and caffeine to avoid dependence and adrenal issues.
