An Applied Analytical Research Study on Dietetics and Nutrition in Ayurveda and Yoga
Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The present Applied Analytical Research study of various concepts of dietetics and nutrition, in various traditional classics on life and health especially in Ayurveda and Yoga, explored many valuable principles and practices about dietetics and nutrition. The references were compiled, integrated, understood, interpreted, represented and analysed statistically in the context of applicability in the present era. As per the interpretation, the concepts were classified according to the Pramana (Ayurvedic Fourfold Examination criteria) and again as per their Applicability in the present era. Statistical analysis, Observation and Results followed by discussion revealed that Ayurveda and Yoga illustrate most of the concepts about Dietetics and Nutrition as per Yukti Pramana i.e., they should be understood by the rationale followed by Aptopadesha Pramana i.e., to be accepted as Authoritative Statements. Some percentage of the concepts about Dietetics and Nutrition in Ayurveda and Yoga are found as per the Pratyaksha Pramana i.e., understood by perception i.e., demonstrated practically. Very few of the concepts were found as per Anumana Pramana i.e., could be understood by imagination or inference only. Some percentage of the concepts about Dietetics and Nutrition in Ayurveda and Yoga are “Easy to understand and easy to follow” followed by the concepts which are “Difficult to understand and difficult to follow”. Most of the concepts about Dietetics and Nutrition in Ayurveda and Yoga are “Easy to understand but difficult to follow”. Very few concepts about Dietetics and Nutrition in Ayurveda and Yoga are very difficult to understand and could not be followed so easily i.e., “Impossible to follow”.
