After masturbation, the body may feel a bit depleted, but don’t worry, you can support your energy and skin health with a few dietary strategies based on Siddha-Ayurvedic principles. Masturbation mainly influences the water and earth elements (Kapha) which needs rebalance to maintain vigor and internal strength. To address this, focus on foods and drinks that replenish the vitality and nourish the dhatus (body tissues).
Start with warm herbal teas like ginger or licorice, as these stimulate Agni (digestive fire) and help maintain metabolism. For skin health, increase your intake of antioxidants by consuming amla (Indian gooseberry) or fresh fruits like pomegranate, which rejuvenates and revitalizes body’s tissues.
Incorporate ghee and almonds into your diet; these are excellent for nourishing the skin and keeping it supple. Both possess Rasayana (rejuvenative) properties and can help counter dryness. Also, cooked moong dal (green gram) is beneficial for its light and easily digestible nature.
Try having a glass of warm milk with a pinch of turmeric every evening. This combination balances Vata, promotes sound sleep, and helps in recovering body’s energy levels. Practicing meditation or pranayama daily can assist in calming the mind and regulating sexual energy flow.
Avoid heavy, oily foods and cold drinks as they can further imbalance Kapha and inhibit digestion. If symptoms persist, it’s a good idea to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized assessment and to address any underlying dosha imbalances appropriately.
