Jbeliefs, each person has a distinct pattern of energy -- a specific ust as everyone has a unique thumbprint, according to Ayurvedic combination of physical, mental, and emotional characteristics. It is also believed that there are three basic energy types called doshas, present in every person:
• Vata-- energy that regulates bodily functions associated with motion, including blood circulation, breathing, blinking, and the beating of the heart. When vata energy is balanced, there is creativity and vitality. Out of balance, vata produces fear and anxiety. • Pitta-- energy that governs the body's metabolic systems, including digestion, absorption, nutrition, and body temperature. In balance, pitta promotes contentment and intelligence. Out of balance, pitta can cause ulcers and arouse anger. • Kapha -- energy that controls growth in the body. It supplies water to all body parts, moisturizes the skin, and maintains the immune system. In balance, kapha is expressed as love and forgiveness. Out of balance, kapha leads to insecurity and envy. All people have vata, pitta, and kapha, but usually 1 or 2 are dominant in a given individual. Many factors can disturb the Dosha balance, such as stress, an unhealthy diet, the weather, and strained family relationships. Such disturbance is expressed in the body as disease. Ayurveda treatments designed to bring the Doshas back into balance. From a Western medical perspective, relief of stress appears to be one of the ways that Ayurveda works to help fight illness.

Other studies have found that Ayurveda slows the aging process, and speeds recovery from illness. The herbs used in Ayurvedic treatment often have antioxidant effects, which means that they may help protect against the damage from free radicals (by-products of normal metabolism in the body) associated with long-term illnesses such as heart disease and arthritis. Ayurveda also recommend a vegetarian diet, which is believed to be better for your heart than diets containing red meat.
