आयुर्वेदिक सिद्धांतों के अनुसार बेहतर स्वास्थ्य के लिए खाने-पीने की चीजों को कैसे मिलाएं? - #52942

You are already following a disciplined routine, which is very good. The bloating and occasional discomfort you feel are usually due to improper food combinations and weak digestive coordination (Agni imbalance) rather than the quantity or quality of food alone. In Ayurveda, food combining is based on how different foods digest together. The most important principle is to keep meals simple, warm, and compatible so digestion remains smooth. Avoid combining fruits with cooked meals, especially mixing fruits with grains or legumes. Fruits should be taken alone, preferably in the morning or as a separate meal. Avoid mixing too many different foods in one meal, as this overloads digestion and causes bloating. Since you are vegan and rely on fruits and vegetables, be careful with combinations like raw + cooked foods together, as this often creates gas and discomfort. Prefer warm, cooked meals over raw foods, especially if bloating is present. Lemon water is fine, but using the peel regularly can sometimes increase sensitivity and Pitta; keeping it mild is better. Also, long fasting from evening to morning is generally fine, but ensure your main meals are nourishing and not too light, otherwise Vata increases, leading to bloating and energy dips. A simple structure works best: one type of grain + one type of legume + cooked vegetables + a little healthy fat in one meal. Avoid frequent snacking and allow proper gaps between meals so digestion completes fully. When food combinations are correct and digestion is stable, bloating reduces, energy becomes steady, and the body feels lighter without discomfort.
