Diet Plan for Vata Prakriti People – Vata Diet

Vata Prakriti is the sole concept of Ayurveda. It denotes the mental, personal, physical and emotional attributes of a person. The prakriti of the individual is decided ideally during the period of the conception as well as is influenced by the condition of doshas throughout that period. Depending on all of these, the prakriti is widely categorized into 3 types. These are often known as the tri-energies.

  • Pitta (accountable for creation and devastation of universe)
  • Vata (accountable for planetary movement)
  • Kapha (accountable for creating and sustaining a new life)

We shall discuss on Vata prakriti people here in detail.

Vata

Vata

Vata is often known as the "King of the Doshas". Vata denotes the elements of air and space, which move things. It denotes the energy, which governs the motion of the biological activities. This gives movement to the various other two doshas, Pitta and Kapha. Vata people are characterized by their creativity, activeness and the way to communicate easily.
