What does it mean to overeat?

While at home during Corona lockdown many of us are putting on weight!
So, are you munching every 2 hourly? Are you a food-lover , wondering when to stop eating?

Well then, you need to know,what does it mean to have enough food?
Here are some simple observations:-
•Is there undue pressure on the stomach, after food?
Is there undue pressure on the chest, after food?
Is there heaviness in the abdomen, after food?
Is the urge for hunger satisfied or fulfilled?
Lastly, after food are you comfortable in activities such as breathing, sitting, walking, and laughing.
You need to stop before the undue pressure begins or the activities are compromised.

So, Ayurved divides the capacity of the stomach into three parts. One part for solids, second part for liquids and third part is left for the movement of Vata-Pitta-Kaph!
Your denial to these indications may lead to the following:
•Severe pain in the abdomen or any part of the body.
•Dizziness
•Drying of mouth or feeling thirsty.
•Contraction of vessels.
•Fever
•Diarrhoea
•Distaste & disinterest in food
•Heaviness in the body
•Burning sensation

This is known as “aam”. Watch out! Observe!
Many of us are facing these consequences, but are unaware of the reasons! All the chronic diseases take root from “aam”.
It is stated that appropriate quantity & quality of food decides “Agni’s” well being.
