CAUSE: too much kapha in body (kapha protects the organs against

overheating. SO when, for example the weather becomes

colder, you need less protection against heat and the body

needs to become drier and warmer

REMEDY: if the body is normally dry and thin, take spicy, hot

tees (brahmastra)

if body is normal build take bitter tees (gentian,

dandelion)

if body is heavy take both kinds of tee

AVOID "sweet" foods: milk, grains, nuts, mangoes

NERVOUS DISORDERS:

(People with dry thin bodies are prone to this condition)

CAUSES: fasting, travelling, high concentration, stress,

management, sitting in front of computers all day

All these activities have the effect of drying out the

body - that is removing fat deposits which protect the

nerve cells.

often accompanied by following symptons:

HEADACHE, BACKACHE, STIFFNESS, CONSTIPATION, IRRITABILITY,

POOR SLEEP

REMEDY: MILK, GHEE, NUTS, GRAINS One should eat as HEAVY as one

can. If digestion is slow then everything should be

eaten (or prepared with GINGER) NO OTHER SPICE SHOULD BE

USED. GINGER IS A SPECIAL EXCEPTION.

Body can also be rubbed with oil (GHEE or COCNUT) or if

one is always cold (MUSTARD or SESAME or PEANUT)

Should never fast (always take at least water) -

especially when travelling take water and salty foods

Subject: Some common devotee ailments:

------------------------------------------------------------

Didn`t I set some rules here that we should have one medicine in one text and

not 10,000 in one text?

Besides, you actually had all these problems and found these cures factually

work? Or is this from some book or a `someone said`?
