Hlo,

Thanks for sharing such detailed information—it really helps to make tailored suggestions. Based on your description:-

Body type / dosha: Pitta-Vata - Current issues: Chronic constipation, dry skin, eczema, acidity from sour fruits, heat intolerance - Lifestyle: Active farm work, good appetite, no metabolic issues

We want foods that: - Pacify Vata → lubricating, warm, moist, easy to digest - Balance Pitta → cooling, non-spicy, non-sour - Support bowel movements → soft fiber, mildly laxative - Hydrate skin → oils, healthy fats

Here’s a breakdown of vegetables, fruits, and protein sources suitable for you: - Vegetables (Vata-Pitta balancing, moist, non-acidic, easy to digest)

Good choices: - Gourd family: bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pumpkin, ash gourd - Root vegetables: carrot, beetroot, sweet potato, yam (well-cooked, lightly spiced) - Leafy greens: spinach, fenugreek, coriander, dill (not mustard or fenugreek seeds) - Other veggies: zucchini, beans, cucumber (cooling, hydrating)

How to prepare: - Cooked, lightly steamed or sautéed in ghee or sesame oil - Avoid raw or cold salads in excess (can aggravate Vata) - Mild spices: cumin, coriander, fennel - Fruits (non-sour, Vata-Pitta friendly, moistening)

Good choices: - Sweet, ripe fruits: pear, apple (steamed or cooked if raw causes acidity), papaya, pomegranate (ripe), mango (ripe, not sour), banana - Melons: watermelon, cantaloupe - Berries: blueberries, mulberries (if tolerated)

Tips: - Avoid citrus, pineapple, unripe mango, tomatoes, and sour berries - If raw fruits trigger acidity, try cooked or stewed fruits with a pinch of cardamom or cinnamon - Protein sources (Vata-Pitta balancing, not heating)

Plant-based: - Moong dal (yellow mung) – lightly cooked, soupy - Red lentils, masoor dal (well-cooked) - Tofu, paneer (fresh, not fermented) - Soaked and cooked legumes (chickpeas, kidney beans in moderation, pressure-cooked) - Animal-based (if non-vegetarian): - White meat: chicken (boiled, stewed, lightly spiced) - Fish: freshwater fish, steamed or lightly cooked

Avoid oily, spicy, or heavily fried meats Oils/fats: Ghee (excellent for constipation and dry skin) Olive oil, sesame oil Nuts: soaked almonds, walnuts (small amounts) Other tips for constipation & dryness

- Warm liquids: 1–2 cups warm water or herbal teas during the day (fennel, cumin, coriander) - Fiber: Soaked chia seeds, flaxseeds (ground, mixed in warm milk or porridge) - Regular routine: Morning bowel movement after warm water or lukewarm ghee - Cooking style: Prefer soft-cooked, lightly spiced meals

Avoid:❌❌❌ Sour, fried, spicy foods Cold/raw salads if they trigger Vata Heavy, hard-to-digest grains Sample Daily Plan

Morning: Warm water with soaked almonds; warm porridge with flax seeds Breakfast: Steamed sweet potato or vegetable upma with ghee Lunch: Soft-cooked dal, steamed vegetables (pumpkin, zucchini), rice or quinoa, a little ghee Snack: Ripe banana or cooked pear with a pinch of cinnamon Dinner: Moong dal soup with cooked carrots and ghee, soft chapati or rice

✅ Key principles: Warm, moist, lightly spiced Sweet, cooling fruits Ghee or healthy oils daily Avoid sour, fermented, or heavily spiced foods

Tq

Hello Thanks for all the info. So, it sounds like you’ve got a classic Pitta-Vata thing going on – basically, chronic dryness from Vata and some Pitta sensitivity.

I’m only going to give you food advice, keeping a few things in mind: –You can’t handle heat, sour stuff, or those strong arishtas. – You’ve had constipation and dry skin your whole life. – But you do really well with bitter meds like Tiktakam Kashayam. – You’re 55, active, work hard, have a good appetite, and no metabolic problems.

AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING

Vata messed up = constipation, dryness, hard poop, eczema since you were a kid.

Pitta messed up (sensitive) = acidity from even slightly sour foods, can’t stand heat.

Kapha is pretty low, so not much ‘lubrication’ happening.

WHAT YOUR DIET SHOULD DO

– Calm down Vata. – Cool down and settle Pitta. – Add some good ‘oiliness’ without feeling heavy.

INCLUDE

VEGGIES (Only cooked – skip raw food) ✅ Best ones (Daily) Bottle gourd (Lauki) Ridge gourd (Tori) Snake gourd Pumpkin Ash gourd French beans Cluster beans (just a bit) Drumstick (moringa) Spinach (cooked well with ghee)

How to cook: Boil them or lightly saute in ghee or coconut oil. Don’t fry, roast, or use too many spices.

❌Stay away from / limit:Tomatoes, eggplant, bell peppers, raw onion, cabbage, cauliflower (they cause gas and dryness), and potatoes (make constipation worse).

FRUITS (SUPER important for constipation) ✅ Best ones (Sweet & cooling)

Ripe papaya (every day, morning) Ripe banana (1 small, not cold) Sweet apple (stewed is better) Pear (steam it if you need to) Pomegranate (only the sweet kind)

❌ Don’t eat: Citrus fruits (orange, lemon), pineapple, sour grapes, raw Amla. 👉 Since sour stuff gives you acidity, avoid all sour fruits, even if they’re usually considered healthy.

🌾 GRAINS & CARBS ✅ Best: Rice (older rice is better) Red rice / Matta rice Wheat (soft rotis, not dry ones) Broken wheat (Daliya, cooked soft) Oats (only if cooked well with ghee)

❌ Don’t eat: Dry foods, bakery stuff, too many millets (ragi, jowar) – they’re too drying for Vata.

PROTEIN (Good for Vata-Pitta) ✅ Best Proteins: Moong dal (yellow or green, cooked well) Masoor dal (a little bit) Cow milk (warm, boiled) Homemade paneer (fresh) Buttermilk (only diluted, in the afternoon, with cumin)

⚠️ Be careful with: Chana dal (causes dryness) Rajma, chole (only sometimes, soaked well)

❌ Don’t eat: Soy, too many peanuts, dry protein powders.

FATS – THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR YOU To fix constipation + dryness, fat is your friend.

✅ Daily Must: Cow ghee: 2–3 tsp/day 1 tsp in the morning 1 tsp with lunch 1 tsp at night (if constipation is really bad) Coconut oil for cooking (it cools Pitta)

SPICES (Keep it mild) ✅ Use:Cumin, coriander, fennel, turmeric (a little), cardamom. ❌ Don’t use:Chili, black pepper, too much garlic, ginger (especially dry ginger).

CONSTIPATION TIPS

Night Routine (Works really well)

1 tsp cow ghee in warm milk OR 1 soaked fig (anjeer) mashed in warm water

👉 This is safe even for life, and better than arishtas if you get acidity.

SKIN & ECZEMA HELP (Food-based)

–Daily ghee (oiling from the inside) –Bitter veggies sometimes: –Neem flower (if you can find it) –Patola (pointed gourd) –Keep taking your bitter medicine when needed.

❌BIG MISTAKES TO AVOID * Skipping meals * Eating dry food * Eating very spicy or sour food * Drinking cold water * Fasting too much

This isn’t a sickness, it’s just how your Vata constitution is. Food, ghee, and a good routine are your long-term answers, not strong medicines.

Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate
