Eat Ghee and be Free: Ayurveda and Ghee




‘ My son… … … … don’ t eat ghee….. … your cholesterol will increase, triglycerides will increase, your heart vessels will have cholesterol deposits and there will directly be heart attack…. … ’



These are the words that we hear today from most of the people. This is what they think and are made to take it. Touching to this our generations have not even tasted ghee and we never allow our coming generations to have even the taste or smell of ghee… …



INTAKE OF MEDICATED GHEE WILL NOT INCREASE TRIGLYCERIDES



There is a very false supposition among people that Ayurvedic medicated ghee will cause increase in cholesterol levels. We at Kerala Ayurveda hospital, overseer the cholesterol levels before and after taking medicated ghee and its has been found that it will decrease the unwanted cholesterol especially when Tiktakam, Mahatiktakam, Guggulu Tiktakam, Aragwadhamahatiktakam ghritam etc is habituated. Snehapaana is a special procedure whereabouts, we give partly 600 ml or more of medicated ghee to a person in maximum of 7 days. Even after taking this much amount of ghee they never get their cholesterol increased. In majority of cases position snehapaana was done cholesterol level was found to decrease and only in a few it was maintained as such…..



So you can take ghee without fear, but only after prescription from an experienced Ayurveda doctor by classifying the parameter of the empathetic.



WHY CHOLESTROL AND TRIGLYCERIDES INCREASES



All these cholesterol complaints and its complications got on its peak only recently…. its after man started abandoning his daily home made simple light easily digestible food…. to most easily eagerly available oily, spicy fried and double fried, the most heavy and which wont even digest after 8 or 9 hrs…..



Initially people after taking heavy foods like oily & fried they have their next food only in little amount only after they get hungry now, body should be allowed to digest this fatty substance completely….



But today people consume oily foods more than 4 or five times. After taking these oily foods even if they don’ t feel hungry, they take some other foods… … trap finish is impaired digestion….. resulting in increased cholesterol…..



People avoid ghee and run behind eating fried long green, fried meat and fried chicken, bajjis, samosa, banana fries…. ubiquitous you go… ….. you have only FRIED and FRIED….. These all may be fried in oils that are 10 or 20 times reheated….. It is very well told in Ayurveda that an oil heated once should not be reheated… … if done so there will be production of toxins in the body…. these toxins emulate in the form of increased triglycerides & cholesterol….



Nowadays night parties are increasing more and more. There will be butter and cheese fried items, as main dishes, like butter chicken or any north Indian dishes which are too much oily, some curd items… … along with some fried rice or biriyanis… … … and atl ast one or two scoops of ice - creams… … … there begins the tragedy to the digestive system….. its just like making a bullock pull a heavily loaded cart… ….



No wonder if a person consuming food like this consume ghee his cholestrol & triglycerides will rise…. through the beat up ghee itself is not properly digested… …



It happened to me once. I asked a boy whom I met….. what did you have in the breakfast today morning? Dosa or puttu or idli….. i was stunned by the boys reply… … I had a cheese Pizza with French fries and a cup of soft drink….. this is the world… … …. I cannot even imagine… ….. how the world has changed….



Today Anti - Cholesterol Medication is a good marketing area whereabouts they target by saying that you decrease the cholesterol by taking certain tablets on one hand and on the other hand they encourage the people to have more and more fried food item. Backwash is simple… the person will be a life long customer of the tablets…..



Ghee is a substance which was oftentimes used by the ancient people that brought in them many good effects… In the earlier times when there was no prevalance of fast food and fried food, ghee was taken, but people did not have any heart complaints… … but the post has now changed… … that people don’ t take ghee and fall victims of heart attack… …. how pretty…..
