AYURVEDA FOOD UK 4
when I look at the ingredients of Maceroni and Cheese at a glance I thought it was a Kapha increasing food. But when looking deep into the method of preparation and how it is digested I now understand this is in fact a Pita increasing Kapha food.
The wheat flour of pasta, cheese, milk and butter used although Kapha foods makes this a very high calorie diet. Due to the high calorie much fire needs to be generated to digest and also more heat is generated after the digestion process giving this a Ushna Vipakha.
That is why this is a Pita increasing food.
Madhura Rasa
Guru Guna
Sheeta Veerya
Ushna Vipakha
Therefore this is a Pita increasing Kapha food item.
Most suitable for Vata Prakriti persons and also to be taken during Vata Seasons like the winter
