Basmati rice is an Ayurvedic staple in many recipes and cleanses. This authentic Indian-grown basmati rice is harvested on sustainable, organic farms. Because of its easy-to-digest nature, basmati rice is very healing during times of cleansing, digestive imbalance, illness, and weakness. It is often eaten together with mung dal to create the traditional Ayurvedic dish known as kitchari and can be a nourishing, delicious addition to your daily diet.
*Although basmati is tridoshic, some Kapha types may experience heaviness after eating due to a slow, sluggish digestive fire (Manda Agni). For this, a less starchy grain such as quinoa may be a better option.
Basmati rice is generally best for Vata and Pitta types and may increase Kapha in excess. Individuals that are experiencing symptoms of a sluggish digestion or slow metabolism may experience heaviness or sleepiness after eating and should avoid if this occurs.

Dalen Rana –
I know it sounds weird because its just rice, but this is by far my favorite rice. I can’t find anything that compares at Vitamin Cottage or even the Indian grocery store I shop at. I use this rice for everything as its easily digestible, cooks fast, and the texture comes out perfect every time.
