It is ironic how something as obvious as nutrition has
become overlooked in the modern health care system, and how in the name of
convenience our fast paced society has given way to fast foods, microwaves,
quick fix medicines, and eating on the run. Fortunately, there is a growing
focus in the important role that nutrition plays in maintaining good health. In
Ayurveda, India's ancient science of life, health and longevity, food plays a
prominent role in promoting health and is therefore considered medicine.
