Ghee – Ancient Super-food For Holistic Healthcare

 

 

 

Our ancient Indian Sages and also the Ayurvedic literature text has asserted the importance of ghee or the clarified butter as a part and parcel of our everyday diet regimen.
  • And this has since ages been regarded as one of the best possible natural and healthy diet available to us.
  • Not only this, Ghee is considered to be a nectar for those who want to attain as well as maintain positive health and healing.
  • Moreover, this super-food helps you to live your life according to the Ayurvedic principals of living. 

 

 

Ghee Or The Clarified Butter

Ghee has the highest source of Butyric acid that is believed to preserve your immunity, colon health, and also the healthy microbes.
Yet, advantages of taking ghee are much more.
  • Ghee or the clarified butter is a great source of healthy saturated fats and is considered great for cooking and to be included in your diet!
  • Owing to the predominant earth element in ghee, it increases the growth in body tissues.
  • And also enhances the Ojas or the vital energy in your body.
  • This means overall, the natural properties of the Ghee help in maintenance of good health.
  • This is by strengthening the digestive as well as the immune system.
  • Besides, ghee is also known to be anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer.
  • And it is a great appetite stimulator.
  • Also, ghee imparts positive effects on your brain and mental power.
  • This is by the virtue of improving memory, learning capability as well as the retention power. 

 

 

Why Ayurveda Counsels Ghee?

  • Ayurveda believes that the daily dose of ghee nourishes the body and aids to enhance the general well-being of mind, body and soul.
  • And this is because the natural property of Ghee enriches Satva i.e. peaceful and calm mind.
  • It moreover aids the process of elimination as well as assimilation.
  • Imparts lubrication to body tissues.
  • Invigorates your digestion.
  • Also ghee plays an important role in cleansing toxins out of your body.
  • And as well actively boosts ojas, agni, semen and lymph.
  • Ayurveda has for always sworn by the qualities of ghee and now the modern research also proves that ghee is one of the seven healthy fats that are most essential in the everyday cooking.
  • Finally the Modern science validates this truth that Ayurveda has been supporting for thousands of years that Ghee is nectar that is essential for the body, mind and soul.

Ghee For The Body

  • Ayurveda encourages the intake of pure ghee because of its excellent digestive nature.
  • Also, ghee has the excellent property of being absorbed directly by the liver, just like carbohydrates and then being burnt directly as energy.
  • For this particular reason, the athletes, over the ages, have used ghee as a reliable energy booster.
  • Moreover, this energy aids the burning of other fats in the body to help in losing weight. 

 

More Benefits Of Ghee

Ghee has amazing benefits for imparting health and wellness.
  1. Ghee is excellent in taste
  2. And it is ideal for cooking as it has a high smoke point so it does not break into radicals unlike other oils. 
  3. It’s an extremely healthy food that is rich in vitamins A, D, E, K2  as well as the antioxidant CLA (conjugated linoleum acid).
  4. For people suffering from lactose or casein intolerance, ghee does not cause dairy allergies as the milk solids.
  5. This is because the impurities get removed while making ghee from butter.
  6. Not only this, being rich in fatty acids and butyric acid, it promotes the development of HDL.

 

Ghee For Ayurveda Panchkarma Treatments

In Ayurveda Panchakarma treatments of detoxification and overhauling the body, Ghee is considered as one of the key ingredients. Let us understand why this is so?
  • This is generally used for providing the necessary oleation and lubrication during the thorough detoxification of the body.
  • And this is generally undertaken by the means of one of the basic Panchkarmas called as Virechana or the purgation therapy.
  • For this purpose, ghee which is the necessary ingredient of Snehapana karma is to be taken first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
  • Besides, the ghee helps to soften the tissues for detox, and utilizes mobilized stored fat to be burned as fuel. Ayurvedic treatments use ghee because of its innate qualities to balance and harmonize the human body.
  • While the expert Ayurveda therapists use ghee as a carrier substance for various Ayurvedic medicines.

 

 

Dosha Balancing Effect

  • Also, owing to its sweet taste, ghee has a laxative and diuretic effect that helps eliminating waste products from the body.
  • Largely, Ayurveda believes that ghee balances Vata and Pitta doshas or the body humors (and also the Kapha dosha when taken in little or moderate quantities).
  • While this its oily nature ensures the downward movement of vata dosha, this aids the lubrication of the digestive tract.
  • And this is how it reduces bowel hardness and flatulence in your body.
  • Not only this, its laxative and oily nature is extremely useful during pregnancy, aiding in delivery by softening the body during birth.

Ghee For Your Health And Wisdom!

The health, strength and quality of the human body is dependent on having good agni. Thus comes the most benefit of Ghee because of its role to increase the body’s ability to absorb food (agni) without aggravating Pitta dosha and balancing different kinds of agni in the body, is extremely vital for preventive health in Ayurveda.

 

Ghee For Beautiful Skin

Ghee’s nutritional and cooling qualities act as a pacifier and create a balancing effect on the Vata-Pitta disturbances in the body which are responsible for causing diseases. Ayurvedic beauty swears by the many skin-friendly characteristics of ghee and uses it lavishly to treat burns as it’s known to prevent or reduce the formation of blisters and scars.

Ghee As Rasayana Or Rejuvenation Therapy

Ayurveda believes that the Ghee strengthens Agni (the basic digesting power) and thus creating an outstanding basis for healthy nutrition. It is therefore considered as Rasayana in Ayurveda which means a natural rejuvenator as it is known to have cell regeneration tendencies.  Consuming ghee is like having a combination of prebiotics, fibre and probiotics leading to a healthy digestive tract that produces killer T cells in the gut to fight diseases like ulcerative colitis, cancer and bowel inflammations. 

 

Ghee For Spiritual Growth

In the ancient Ayurveda text, Ghee is considered to be the most Satvic food. Its aromatic flavour is the secret tool used by chefs world over to create soul food and is recommended to be used while boiling, sauté, frying, steaming and baking. It enhances positivism, growth of consciousness, pulling out emotional toxins to cleanse the negative emotions from the body to feed the positive making it the ideal food for soul.
