There is a belief in the minds of people about drinking decoction that it can be drunk only in winters. Some people believe that it is right to drink it only at the time of any kind of infection. People who drink decoction in winter stop drinking it in summer. People argue that if the nature of the decoction is hot then it can harm the body. But should we really not drink the decoction in summer or can we drink it? Let us know about this from Ayurveda experts.
in Delhi Ayurveda Expert Dr. Chanchal Sharma tells that according to Ayurveda, you can consume the decoction in every season, it keeps your hormones balanced, but the thing to understand here is that the things that go into the decoction can be different in every season and what to put in the decoction depends on the nature of your body.
Decoction has been used in Ayurveda for centuries. For this, some Ayurvedic medicines are boiled with water in a vessel and then filtered and drunk. Therefore, it is very important to know which medicine should be used in the decoction in which season. It is also important to see what season it is and how the decoction should be prepared accordingly. So that we can get the best benefit from it.
During the summer season, the incidence of Pitta Dosha increases in your body. Therefore, in summer, decoction made from things with hot nature can be harmful. Due to this they may have stomach problems. This can also cause mouth ulcers. Although you can drink the decoction in summer, do not use medicines with hot nature in the decoction. Drink the decoction only in balanced quantity.
In summer, you should use such material which feels cool inside your body. You can add three to four fresh basil leaves in your decoction. You can use liquorice to get relief from throat problems. You can use fennel to keep the body cool and improve digestion. Along with this, you can also add coriander seeds to the decoction.
