One Man's Meat is Another Man's Poison
Author: Tim Larson, Ph. D.

One of the most important factors for enjoying good health is the food you eat. Food not only nourishes your body and replenishes your tissues, but proper nutrition helps you stay balanced and healthy. Improper nutrition can cause imbalance in your system and eventually lead to disease. But the foods that are best for one person are not necessarily best for the next person. Some foods that help balance one person may actually work to imbalance another person, depending on their individual constitution.

Hippocrates was an early observer of the importance of food to your health and equated food to medicine. Yes, if you have the right knowledge, food becomes medicine to heal you! However some foods can be toxic to your body, slowly poisoning you even though you may not be aware of what is happening! So proper knowledge of the effects that foods have on your particular constitution is very important.

Typical nutritional guidelines often lump everyone together, recommending the same thing for all people, all of the time. However, the fact is - people are different! There is profound truth in the quote, "One man's meat is another man's poison." Don't be misled by one-size-fits-all guidelines.

The time-tested wisdom of Ayurveda provides clear and concise recommendations for people based on their unique constitutions, state of balance and seasonal factors. This wonderful knowledge has been validated and has withstood the test of time since the tenets of Ayurveda were first laid down.

One wonderful thing about following the unique recommendations that are right for you, is that the recommendations also help regulate your body weight, so that you don't have to resort to starvation diets or unnatural diets to keep you at the weight that is right for you. If you are overweight, you will find that following the recommendations help you to lose weight. It will happen effortlessly and you will be surprised at the simplicity of it!
