The Best Time to Eat Your Biggest Meal is...



Friday's treat is an Ayurvedic Fun Fact:

Did you know that the best time to eat your lunch is between 12 pm – 1 pm?  It should be the biggest meal of your day, contrary to the popular belief that breakfast should be the largest. 

According to the Ayurvedic tradition, your Pitta, or fire-power dosha, is burning strongest from 10 am – 2pm (also making it a good time to avoid difficult conversations – your anger could bubble up.)

This strengthens your Agni, or life-giving fire power & energy, which fuels digestion.

So whenever possible, eat your biggest meal between 12 pm and 1 pm for maximum burning power and energy for your day.
