Hippocrates, known as the founder of modern medicine once said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” It is also not uncommon to hear ‘You are what you eat’.

You are nothing but a walkie talkie element table. Remember the periodic table of elements from the school times right from hydrogen to helium and more! Those are the elements that precisely make up your body in various proportions and which eventually gives you the feel of who you really are.

Good and Conscious Nutrition is often one of the most overlooked aspects of our day to day life as well as one of the most important nature healing methods.  As Wikipedia defines it aptly – Nutrition is the science that interprets the interaction of nutrients and other substances in food in relation to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organism. When any of these or other function is adversely related, only then one starts to match up the role of the nutrients – the carbs, fat, protein, vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, amino acids, etc. within the body. Many of the differences that I have observed through simple integration of healthy diet in daily life have been described here.

The blog on nutrition will just talk about anything that is related to nutrition. It could be my experience of a specific diet, a known fact through study and observations, link between diet and our worldly experience through the emotional states or the modes of nutritional absorption and more. It could be just about anything that I feel like writing on the subject as long as it gives some insight. Also I should tell here that our body is a lot more complex than simple physical aggregation. It works and heals on many levels. So do our current lives equally complex where we are juggling with multiple aspects – your true desires, your office, your family, your health and more together. To know how diet and nutrition fits in the whole scheme of things and can lead you to larger goals than just a healthy body, do read the book Can You Play. Remember, even Buddha realised that he could not do away without food while pursuing his mission.
