Your Prakruti (constitution) depends on the balance of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas. To determine it, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner. Generally:

Vata Types: Prefer warm, oily, and grounding foods. Avoid raw and cold foods.
Pitta Types: Favor cooling, hydrating, and less spicy foods. Avoid oily and sour foods.
Kapha Types: Eat light, spicy, and dry foods. Avoid heavy, sweet, and oily meals.
To cleanse the gut:

Include Triphala powder at night to detoxify and improve digestion.
Eat a simple diet of kichari (mung dal and rice) for 3–5 days.
For weight loss:

Take warm water with lemon in the morning to boost metabolism.
Consume herbs like Guggulu, Punarnava, or Triphala Guggulu under guidance.
Avoid processed foods, sugar, and heavy meals at night.
Combine Ayurvedic foods with yoga and a regular eating schedule to achieve sustainable weight loss.

Based on your age and the absence of chronic illnesses, your prakruti (natural constitution) would need to be assessed in more detail through your physical, emotional, and mental characteristics. However, common Ayurvedic guidelines for balancing health and promoting well-being suggest focusing on a diet that is suited to your dosha (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha). To cleanse your gut, include easily digestible foods like cooked vegetables, grains such as quinoa or rice, and warm herbal teas like ginger or fennel. Avoid heavy, greasy, and overly processed foods. For weight loss, focus on a diet that is light and detoxifying, including fiber-rich foods like leafy greens, fresh fruits, and legumes, and reduce intake of sweets, fried foods, and dairy. Herbal supplements like Triphala and ghee can aid digestion and metabolism. Regular physical activity and a mindful eating routine will also support healthy weight loss.
