🌧️ Monsoon Mood, Mindful Meals 🌧️

✨ What you eat during the rains matters more than you think ✨

The rainy season brings relief—but also humidity, sluggish digestion, and a spike in infections. 

At Sattvic Grains, we believe in eating with the rhythm of nature. Ayurveda teaches us that Agni (digestive fire) weakens during monsoons, making mindful food choices essential.

🚫 Foods to Avoid During Monsoons:

🔸 Leafy greens (like spinach, methi) – Can harbour microbes due to dampness. Opt for steamed or sautéd versions if needed.

🔸 Fermented foods – Increase acidity and may aggravate Pitta and Kapha doshas.

🔸 Cold dairy (like chilled milk or curd) – Can lead to mucus buildup and slow digestion.

🔸 Street food & raw salads – Risk of contamination is higher in humid conditions.

🔸 Seafood – Monsoon breeding season makes it more prone to spoilage and allergies.

🔸 Excessive sweets – Can trigger sluggishness and imbalance Kapha.

🌿 Ayurvedic Insight:

Monsoon aggravates Vata and Kapha, so favour warm, cooked, mildly spiced foods that support digestion and immunity. Think moong dal, steamed veggies, and herbal teas.

📿 Sattvic Tip:

Start your day with warm water infused with ginger and tulsi to awaken digestion and boost immunity.
