#001 SHOULD WE REGULATE OUR FOOD?

-
FOOD CHOICE is important for a healthy life. It is not just nutritious balanced diet, which the Western modern health routines projects as key to health.

A diet in spite of being a storehouse of all the components like carbohydrates, proteins, fats, mineral salts and vitamins and being cooked in hygienic environment can yet cause ill health. On the other hand semi-starving and half-naked fakirs can live a long healthy life. Secret?

Food controls our behavior (SLEEP AND SEXUAL LIFE) and consequently health even without our cognizance. I plan about 100 posts, which may take about 150 days.

Every day I shall be writing about one or two foods. Their effects are discussed mostly from personal experiences and from ancient books.

FROM 30 YEARS PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

BRINJAL: Unnecessarily increases sexual desires. Though the desire increases, the erections or the staying powers do not increase.

ONIONS exacerbate the problem.

For a long time, I thought that my personal experience was an isolated peculiar problem.

Recently, I saw on a TV channel on Jaimini Bharata stories. There also, the commentator classified 'brinjal' as an avoidable thing for a person who wants to master his sensual organs.

Thereafter, I again experimented with brinjal taking it on some days and avoiding on other days.

However, there may be TWO limitations here. 1) The breed of brinjal may decide its impact on the bod of the organism which consumes it. 2) The soil on which the brinjal is grown, may decide its micro-elements and decide its medical qualities.

How far AyurvEdic system of medicine has progressed since Gandhiji's comments of 1942-46?

-
This post was originally made by me at my blog gandhijiyb.blogspot.com . It seems equally relevant here, as well. Hence I am re-posting here. Gandhiji wrote to an Ayurvedic physician, Vallabhram Vaidya, on 28th June 1942. From the context of the letter, we get an impression that the doctor was seeking Gandhiji's help for getting Government's monetary support to promote AyurvEda. Source of the letter: Vol. 83 of Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi: BHAI VALLABHRAM, I have already told you that Ayurveda cannot be saved either by money or by State help. Would the State be able to revive Ayurveda even if it gave thousands of rupees every month to the purveyers of indigenous tonics? Hundreds of people have laid down their lives to spread allopathy. Allopathy by itself is not expensive but the doctors and the chemists have made it so. You have not seen their books giving the formula and cost of each important medicine. The cost price of Bayer’s Sarsaparilla is one and a half pice b

This is in continuation of my post No. 1065 at my blog problemsoftelugus.blogspot.com. Link for those who are interested to study it: Click here if you wish to go to 1065 at problemsoftelugu.blogspot.com. That post, dealt with extensively and intensively with different types of curds, and their beneficial/detrimental effects on human bodies (Indian bodies which are heated by 45 degrees summer heat and cooled by drenching monsoons?), according to the Ancient Indian Traditional Medical Treatise Sarangadhara samhita. Curd (yogurt) is a dairy food. It is obtained and consumed in Indian homes on daily basis, by fermenting milk for about 12 hours, by adding a little of previous day's curd, to milk at room temperature. Going back to mythology, I am unable to trace anything about consumption of curd in Valmiki Ramayana, by Ramayana characters or its citizens or the Citizens of Kishkindha or Lanka. There are some references to liquor, meat, wine made from honey etc. My readers who

Did Gandhiji consider AyurvEdic medicines as poison?

-
ybrems This post, I have made, originally at my blog on Gandhiji. It seems more relevant to AyurvEda. Hence, I am re-posting it here. Gandhiji wrote to his son dEvadas Gandhi, on Jan. 1, 1945. Source: Vol.85 of Collected Works of MahatmA Gandhi. CHI. DEVDAS, Having written my first letter to Rajaji I now write this to you. Do not at all worry on my account. I am paying for my sins. I had too much of Ayurveda and I suffered. And now I am slowly throwing off the poison. I have therefore grown very weak but I am watching the developments. Hook-worm and amoeba, my old enemies, won’t leave me. All this is but flushing out the poison that I had taken. I do not know what other suffering is in store for me. I shall go on doing as God dictates. You should not worry. Ramdas[1] has come. And now Nimu[2] too. ybrems 1. Gandhiji and Swami Vivekananda has one thing in common. 'I am paying for my sins." Vivekananda called this "my karma". 2. Gandhiji: "I shall go on doing
