Podcast: Ayurvedic Approach to Weight Loss with Dr. Sujatha Kekada

In this episode, Colette Kent speaks with Dr. Sujatha about the Ayurvedic approach to weight loss.

According to Ayurvedic teaching, we are healthy when our doshas are in balance. If there is an imbalance of the doshas, this leads to both physical and mental discomfort. One of the problems that can occur here is obesity. If a person suffers from overweight, then in most cases the Dosha Kapha is present in an excess.

If the balance of the doshas is restored, this often also has a beneficial effect on weight loss. Ayurveda is an ideal approach if you want to reduce weight. Because unlike many modern dietary approaches, Ayurveda is a sustainable and long-lasting method of reducing body weight.

Ayurveda offers a gentle and natural method of weight loss, with which you will achieve long-term success. Because once a healthy body weight is reached, the weight can also be easily maintained with Ayurveda. Not only nutrition plays an important role here, but also regular exercise and physical activity. The great peculiarity of Ayurveda is that there is no single recipe. Instead, each person takes an individual approach, which takes into account the particular circumstances of their lives. Therefore, Ayurveda can achieve particularly good results in weight loss.
