Wellness Diet

According to Ayurveda, the sense of taste is a natural guide map towards proper nutrition. Ayurveda identifies 6 tastes (Shadrasas) by which all food can be categorized: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Pungent and Astringent.
Our Wellness cuisine has an international selection of foods in harmony with the different body types (Vata, Pitta and Kapha). Sweet, Sour & Salty food balances Vata; Sweet, Bitter & Astringent food balances Pitta and Pungent, Bitter & Astringent food balances Kapha. Food is the primary preventive tool in Ayurveda and the first step in bringing the mind and body back into equilibrium. Our chefs appreciate that delicate balance, and, in consultation with the doctors, juggle ingredients, flavors, seasons and palates to bring out personalized and inspiring works of culinary art.

Some of the dishes are Broiled Tuna with Almond Dill Sauce (for Vata); Three bean cake with Cumin & Onion Pulao (for Pitta); and Fresh Corn and Ginger Soup (for Kapha). The herbs used are mostly from our pesticide free gardens.

The detox treatments are supplemented with a supervised diet plan to increase their efficacy. The detoxification process works on cellular regeneration and internal cleansing of the body and hence it is important that we provide our body some respite and much needed rest during and immediately after the treatments. The digestive system cannot be overloaded with greasy and heavy foods which are difficult to digest and the focus is on foods that are healthy, organic and easy to digest.

High quantities of fresh and organic raw fruits and vegetables, juices and unprocessed foods are also common. Most of the diets also require you to avoid smoking, alcohol, processed and refined foods and stress.
