Ayurveda has vast knowledge about food. The ancient seers were so enlightened at that period that they knew what food and food habits would be beneficial for healthy as well as for diseased and work at what level of body and knew how food habits helps in balancing the Doshas and alleviates the diseases. But if we look into the modern protocols this phenomenon of rules of intake of food, effect of particular food in particular disease etc. is missing. They indicate diet in disease in which the main focus is on the deficiency of a particular element in the body without knowing the state of acceptance of that diet in the body. But our protocol depends upon the state of Agni, Doshas, Srotas condition etc. This article aims to highlight the important dietary factors for the management of Pandu.
