What does Pathyaahar mean?

The Charak Samhita gives a detailed description of various types of Aahar Vihar and its effect on the body. Aahar or ‘food’ has been called as ‘Brahma’ or The Creator – as all life begins and sustains with Aahar. Acharya Charaka gives a beautiful concept about Aahar and says that Aahar not only forms the body, but also the disease. If the wholesome food (Hit Aahar) is responsible for Sukh (Happiness), the unwholesome food causes Dukh (misery/disease).
Pathyaahar, which is a mix of 2 words – Pathya Aahar means that Aahar & Vihar (food & drink) that is suitable for you, your body & your condition. The food & drink that not only gives nourishment but also happiness to the body is known as Pathya Aahar. If you are suffering from high blood pressure, a low salt diet is Pathya Aahar for you. If you are suffering from Diabetes, a high sugar diet is Apathya Aahar for you.  Apathya Aahar is that which is not suitable for you, for your body and for your condition.
