In Ayurveda Gooseberries have pride of place along with ginger and turmeric. Blackcurrants are a rich source of vitamins and minerals, and a combination of both these fruits along with the herbs and spices make for a nutritive, and rejuvenative tonic specially in the winter months.
Good for circulatory, digestive and excretary systems.
Suggestions:
- Eat on toasts, or on the side with your meals, or mix it along with rice.
- try not to exceed more than 1 tablespoons a day.
- best eaten alongside with warm milk.
Suitable for Vegans
Gooseberry and Blackcurrant Aavleha
Aavleha are ayurvedic recipes which act as tonics, increasing metabolism and immunity and rejuvenating the system.
The recipes for the cold weather and hot weather Aavleha differ and so does the pharmacology. This cold weather Aavleha should be consumed from the beginning of autumn therefore preparing the body for the approaching winter and spring. The aim of cold weather care is to eat foods that are warming and keep your metabolism on an even keel. In winter nature slows down and our systems become sluggish. Daily consumption of Aavleha maintains the metabolic rhythm of our bodies.
These are my personal recipes and the combination of ingredients of each Aavleha is calibrated as per ayurvedic principles and pharmacology.
