Why is Hiczdi considered healing food
She said: “Hichdi is not just a bowl with rice and lentils. In Ayurveda, it is considered as one of the most powerful healing products. If someone becomes ill, or has a weak digestive system, the first food, which is often recommended, is a hash. It is warm, soft and full.
Having explained why Hichdi approaches almost everyone, Schweta said: “Ayurveda has three energy or dos in every body – cotton, pita and cafes. If these doses are not balanced, we are ill or feel low in energy. Hichdi is special because it is a balance of all three. “.
When our stomach is weak or upset, we cannot digest heavy food, according to Schwida: “Ayurveda says that the digestive fire (lights) becomes slow during the illness. The hichdi is produced using mung and rice, which are very easily digested. It gives energy without imposing too much load on the stomach.”
How to use Khichdi as aid by detoxification
In Ayurveda toxins in the body are called “Ama”. Schwyta said: “These toxins make us feel tired, cause bloating, or make us ill. Hichdi, especially when made of melted butter, ginger, turmeric and cumin, helps remove these toxins. It works as a soft detox, helping the body feel and pure.”
Despite the fact that Khichdi is a simple dish, it has everything you need. Schweta explained: “Dal gives protein, rice gives energy, and ghee helps in digestion and healing. If someone recovers from the disease or feels weak, Hichdia gives strength without damaging the stomach.”
She added: “One of the best parts about Khichdi is that it can be changed depending on the season or body type. In winter, we can add warming spices such as black pepper or dried ginger. In the summer we can make it simple and cool. You can also add vegetables or greens to make it more healing.”
Sweden later said that “Khichdi fulfills one golden ayurvedic rule”: “Langgan Aushadham (light is the best medicine).” According to her, if your stomach is upset, you feel tired, or you just want to rest, eat Hichdi. She said, “It is not fantasy and modern, but it is proven in time. Simple food, when preparing the right way, becomes the best medicine.”
