COOL DRINKS FOR A HOT SUMMER (PANAKAS)

Hello friends,

    As we are welcoming a bright summer ahead , i thought this subject would be very handy. Summer comes in a AADANAKALA(uttarayana), AADANA means to take away, so ayurveda says in this period of the year as sun rays are closer to earth resulting in drying up of our energy and water sources , so body feel drained out and dehydrated .

                                          Even though we cannot change the course of nature , but ayurveda provides some very simple recipes to beat the effects of this heat, they are known as PANAKAS ,

few of them can be totally made at home like -

* NIMBU PANAKAM(LEMON JUICE) -  4 tsp of lemon juices + 500 ml of water + sugar as per      taste + cardamom

*COCONUT MILK DRINK -  extract 100 ml of coconut milk + cardamom  + 200 ml of water

  sugar as per taste .

And ayurveda mentions about few herbal PANAKAS  which are very effective and simple to make,

i m mentioning here few important ones

* SARIVADI PANAKA - at our clinic we make a concentrated syurp of it using sariva moola (known for its blood purifying effect and reduces pitta)  kesar petals(rejevinative and cools the body) ,sita (brown sugar candy)

                                              

 

                                          Just add 2 stp of this concentrated syurp to either a glass of milk or                                                     water , and its ready to serve, easy and very very tasty.

*USHIRA PANAKA -  it is also a concentrated syrup made up of a very famous herbal known as    ushira (vetivera zizonidis) , khas khas in hindi, +  dhanyaka patra  (coriander leaves) + sita (brown sugar candy )

                                         Just add 2 stp of this concentrated syurp to either a glass of  water  and its ready to serve, easy and very very tasty.

JAANU BASTI- knee care

 hello friends,
As we know ayurveda belives in treating everyone as seperate individuals customized by by their  specific combininantion  of VATA PITTA KAPHA , which are unique for every individuals, bcozz of which we get afflicted to different diseases . Its like in a family one gets fever and other dont , even though  they ate same  food and had same water.

Even though  we are unique in our vata pitta and kapha combinations ,we all still follow a similar pattern at certain levels and AGE is one of such factor which treats us same.

HOW AGE INFLUENCES OUR DOSHAS  

New born to  age 16 yrs - kapha kala , so childern commonly suffer from coomon cold , ferver , loose stools, vomitting etc.

16-40yrs  - its pitta kala , so adults suffer from pimples , acidity, ulcers, hair fall,  bleeding disorders etc.

above 40 - vata kala starts , vata has laghu ,ruksha(dry) gunas due to whcih body starts degenarating . so in aged persons we see teeth fall, joint pain , muscle wasting, loss of memory, reduced performance of sense organs like eyes, ears etc.


KNEE PAIN AND JAANU BASTI.

So the as the effect of vata due to age the qualities like ruksha (dry) , khara(roughness) ,etc increase in body casuing dryness of knee joint , the lubricating fluid called as sandhi shelshma ie synovial fluid reduces . This leads to more friction between the bones of knee joint and resulting into the degenaration bone at joint .

so ayurveda explains certain medicated oils which has opposite gunas of  vata . These oils are used in a therapy called jaanu basti,

* what is jaanu basti ?
- jaanu= knee  and basti= making oil to stay at one place for certain duration.. so we make the medicated oil of specific desirable temprature to stay on ur knees for certain time. and then followed by massage and medicated steam to ensure proper absorption of oil.

*what are the benifits...?
- improves the joint mobility.,
   reduces pain and swelling
   improves lubrication of joints  (synovial fluid )
   makes knee joint last longer and healthier.

*who can have it..?
-since it is not only a curative therapy , it also acts as preventive and rejevnative therapy so anybody can have it. doctor guidness is necessary in choosing oil so no self medication please .
*  spl indication- sports person as to avoid the illeffects of over use of their knee joint.
