Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda & Alternative Medicine - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Today’s life style is framed in busy schedule and packed with automatic sedentary type of approach. In present situation man has forgot about holy blends of Dinacharya(daily routine) like wake up call, bowel evacuation, exercise, diet , sleep, dailybody massageetc. Rotation of shift,improper location of taking food, lustre of tongue, and change in pattern of preparing and consuming food irrespective of time and taste are few example of wrong practice. Man has changed his attitude towards food. Time which is the most important interfering factor regarding consumption of food has been ruled out from life style .Now a day food is just for the sake of tongue and not for health. Aadhyashana (consumption of frequent meals irrespective of pure hunger) is one of the most provoking causes of various Santerpanoth Vikaar (diseases arise due to excessive impletion) like Obesity, Diabetes. Modern medical science is insisting on the fact thatthere should not be a pattern of frequent meals. One should eat strictly twice a day. From recent studies, it is crystal clear that increase in frequency of eating patterns is main cause of Hyperisulinemia and Insulin Resistance. Such wrong practise results in of Obesity and Diabetes. Daily optimum level of Insulin must be kept for two times a day for proper digestion. In Yogratnakara; there is a reference that Eating must be like Agnihotra Vidhiwhich is performed twice a day. However additional points like Agnee (gastric fire), Jirnahaar lakshanas (signs of digestion),and Kshudbodh lakshanas (signs of hunger) to be taken in mind.This article is based on theme of Adhyashana and its relation to insulin resistance.
