Dear Ask Ayurveda: "I am a 41 year old female from the Midwest, happily married but without children. I work about 50 hours a week at an IT position that is fairly high paced and stressful. I have a couple minor health issues such as bouts of eczema, reoccurring sinus infections and a seemingly slow metabolism; but my main concern I am hoping to talk about today involves my addiction to sugar. I know many people have a sweet tooth, but my sweet habits seem to go way beyond this. I try my best to keep junk food out of...

Dear Ask Ayurveda: “I am a Kapha body-type and find myself frustrated once in a while at all of the food restrictions that we have to endure. I am not currently overweight, but I definitely gain weight extremely easily if I am not careful. I often read that Kapha types should not eat snacks between meals, and I was curious as to how strict I should be about this. I am not trying to lose weight anymore, but I also do not want to gain weight. I am often worried that if I do the wrong things I will be back...

Dear Ask Ayurveda: "I am an avid follower of Ayurveda for over 3 years now. I have been trying my best to incorporate the routine and practices that will balance my Kapha (my main dosha). I have noticed so many great changes in my health so far, including losing 10 pounds without even dieting. I typically am pretty good at keeping to my Ayurvedic routine, however, I can sometimes feel a bit overwhelmed trying to follow so many rules at once. I usually do a really good job for a couple weeks, but soon I begin to feel overwhelmed and anxious...

Dear Ask Ayurveda, "A friend of mine recently told me about the benefits of tongue scraping for oral health and even the health of the body. I have not used an official tongue scraper before, but I have been brushing my tongue with my toothbrush for years. I am just curious if there is a difference and if one is more powerful than the other. I do have a slight coating on the back of my tongue and often have bad breath in the morning. Do you think a tongue scraper would be better for these issues than simply brushing the...

Dear Ask Ayurveda: I have been learning about Ayurveda for a year or so now. I think I am a Vata type. I have learned a lot about eating for my constitution, along with other healthy Ayurvedic practices that I try to follow. I have suffered from a weak digestion for many years, although the changes I have made through Ayurveda have helped me dramatically so far! I have recently heard that Ayurveda puts a lot of emphasis on Food Combining. I have tried to incorporate the little I know about this, but I am still confused and left a bit flustered. ...

Ask Ayurveda, “When someone has an aggravated Dosha (or an imbalance in the body), why do they still have no urges or cravings toward changing behavior or diet in order to pacify the dominant Dosha (or imbalance), relieve the condition and return to Balance?” Craving Conundrum Dear Craving Conundrum, Thank you for sending in your question! Cravings are definitely a curious and telling phenomenon. According to Ayurveda, when we are out of balance we can either experience a “healthy craving” or an “unhealthy craving”. In this sense, it can most definitely become confusing as to which type of craving it is at...

Dear Ask Ayurveda, "I am a 50 year old female. Although I have been in relatively good shape my entire life, in the past 2 years I have gained 15 pounds even though my diet and activity has remained the same. I have since tried a few various diets such as the Paleo, but I have not seen any results. The most frustrating issue is that all of the weight seems to have collected along my midsection. I am currently going through menopause; experiencing hot flashes, night sweats, irritation and hair loss. The weight gain seems to be another symptom...

Castor oil has a wide range of uses, both internally and externally. Castor oil holds a strong place in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, as well as many other ancient medical sciences. Castor oil packs are a highly effective therapy used to relieve many conditions including constipation, congestion in the GI tract, congestion in the lymphatic system, liver issues; benign tumors, cysts, and fibroids; skin disorders, and inflammatory issues. Although the outer shell of the castor bean is actually poisonous, it is the seed inside that is used to make the castor oil. Castor oil can still be upsetting while used internally, however,...
