Do NOT mix roasted ginger + garlic (hot) with honey (cooling) and eat quickly. This creates Pitta-toxic reaction (Ama + Viruddha Ahara) which can severe discomfort even if rarely done.

If you accidentally have mixed roasted ginger and garlic with honey while they were still warm, do not worry. Just drink plenty of warm water after that and avoid taking anything else eating for next few hours, this combination becomes very sharp and can irritate the stomach and throat. So have a little ghee or plain yoghurt to cool the system. Avoid spicy food for rest of the day, and you you feel acidity or burning warm water with a pinch of Sugar or a Little cold milk to settle the heat. If still persist, then ta Avipattikara churna half teaspoon before meals with water
HELLO,
If you roasted ginger and garlic in ghee, added honey to it while still warm and caused severe discomfort, here’s what you should do and know:
Do not consume the mixture again — combining honey with very warm or hot ingredients can cause toxic compounds to form according to Ayurveda, especially when honey is heated above ~40°C. Drink plenty of water to dilute and help your body process the mixture. Avoid heavy or spicy foods for the next few hours.
Roast ginger and garlic in ghee until golden. Let it cool to lukewarm temperature, not hot. Then add honey and mix.

Hello Roasting ginger and garlic in ghee is ok , most of the cooks do this and put in curries. Vegetables. But you eat it hot with honey. If you are fine and not facing any problem then, don’t worry You can take Avipattikar tablet 1-0-1 after food with water Drink adequate amount of water Avoid spicy fried sugary foods, street foods.
After roasting ginger and garlic with ghee and consuming them with honey, there’s a few considerations to keep in mind. In Ayurveda, this combination can strengthen the digestive fire, or Agni, due to the warming and stimulating properties of ginger and garlic. Ghee acts as an Ayurvedic medium that helps carry the active components to the tissues, while honey provides an additional layer of soothing sweetness and aids in detoxification.
If you are experiencing normal heat, it indicates moderate activation of Agni. However, be conscious of your Dosha. If you have a Pitta constitution or imbalance, this combination may increase heat, potentially leading to symptoms like heartburn or discomfort. In such cases, follow this with a glass of lukewarm water with a pinch of fennel or coriander to balance the heat.
On the other hand, if you are Vata or Kapha dominant, this preparation could be beneficial in enhancing your digestion and metabolism. Consider taking this mixture in the morning as part of your routine to ignite Agni, aiding in better digestion throughout the day. Limit consumption to once a day, as excessive heat might lead to imbalances.
Ensure the ginger and garlic aren’t charred, as burnt residues might create toxins which could disrupt the balance in the gut. If this happens, try combining with a dash of turmeric or add a few mint leaves to cool the system.
When incorporating this into your routine, be mindful of its effect on your body. If you notice any adverse reactions, consider consulting with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized adjustments. If you experience any signs of burning or excessive heat, discontinuing this practice and seeking professional guidance would be advisable.
After roasting ginger and garlic with ghee and consuming with honey, it’s good to consider what the combination is doing for your body. This mixture, rooted in traditional treatments, can stimulate agni, aiding digestion and enhancing metabolism. The ginger and garlic can support ultraya (waste elimination), while honey magnifies these benefits, although always use it in moderation given its heating nature.
For balance and incorporate this into a routine, understanding your dosha is essential. If vata (air) is dominant, this mix can support warmth and digestion on cooler days. However, if pitta (fire) dominates, moderate to avoid excessive heat, especially during hot months. For kapha (earth and water), this combination can help fight heaviness or sluggish digestion, especially in damp, wet seasons.
On taking it, ideally consume in the morning or early afternoon when digestive fire is strongest. Avoid evenings when digestion naturally slows down. If you’re using this as a remedial action, a small dose—half a teaspoon—is enough.
Considerations include toxicity of heated honey, as it’s an Ayurvedic belief not backed scientifically but important traditionally. Air on caution: allow ginger-garlic mix to cool slightly before mixing in honey. For immediate relief from potential upset, warm water sips calm digestion and neutralize excess heat. Stay in touch to monitor any symptoms like dullness, dryness, or heavy head.
Incorporate foods complementing balance to negate excess: cooling herbs like coriander or cooling drinks such as buttermilk adjust potential overheating instigated by ginger-garlic-honey mix. Pay attention to what your body signals post-consumption, adjusting accordingly.
HELLO,
If you roasted ginger and garlic in ghee, then added honey and ate it while still warm, and it caused severe discomfort the safest steps are
WHAT TO DO -drink warm water to dilute the mixture in your stomach -avoid eating anything spicy or acidic for a few hours -rest your stomach- stick to light foods- rice, bananas, toast if needed -if there’s burning in the chest or stomach a spoon of plain yogurt, or milk can help soothe it
WHY IT HAPPENED -honey should not be heated or added to very hot ingredients- it can become harder to digest and may irritate your stomach roasted ginger + garlic is also strong and intense, which can cause discomfort when eaten quickly
WHAT TO AVOID NEXT TIME -do not add honey to hot ginger/garlic . let them cool to lukewarm first -eat a small amount not a big spooonful
