In particular, it has a good amount of Vitamin C which helps to reduce oxidative damage and can support natural collagen synthesis.In addition, by reducing the oxidative damage from ultraviolet sun exposure, the quality of skin can be maintained for years to come. Diets that are high in anti-oxidant nutrients are amongst the best for exerting anti-aging benefits and is something wood apple excels at.
Wood apple extracts have been shown to possess properties against the replication of bacteria and viruses. In addition to extracts made from the fruit, the bark of the tree also contains several unique compounds which may display bacteriostatic and fungicidal actions.
By now it goes without saying that any food which contains a significant amount of natural phytocompounds, vitamins and assorted flavonoid’s will also have some degree of anti-inflammatory action. This is true in the case of the wood apple which does not disappoint. It has been used traditionally to help reduce symptoms of eczema, dermatitis and even management of arthritic pain
Wood apple contains essential electrolytes that help ensure fluid balance is maintained. Amongst the most important of these is potassium, which helps prevent excessive water loss, either via urination, or perspiration via the skin. In turn, this makes the wood apple unique in the sense that you can consume it, or use locally for application to the skin in order to preserve moisture content.
Wood apple are rich in fiber, and can help to prevent constipation from occurring.

It’s not surprising to learn that wood apples may actually promote the healing of wounds, since we already know that they possess anti-inflammatory actions, as well as the ability to inhibit the proliferation of pathogens.However, its wound healing properties may also be associated with its ability to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a structural protein which forms the scar over a wound.

Just keep in mind, these are fast digesting carbohydrates and may not be suitable for diabetics owing to the speed at which they enter the bloodstream.
You probably know too well the discomfort that results from the common cold or flu, especially when it comes to the labored breathing and congestion. Consumption of wood apples can assist with free breathing owing to decongestant properties, along with cough suppressing and mucolytic action to clear the lungs of catarrh.
Even though probiotic bacteria play critical roles in maintenance of healthy immune function, the sad reality is that most people have no idea that these bacteria even exist, or what they can do support them. One of the best things you can do is to consume a diet rich in plant-based nutrition, since the fiber contained in many of these foods act as nutrition for the probiotic bacteria.Fiber contained in the wood apple is no different, as it can help to ensure colonies of the probiotic bacteria are maintained, in turn supporting regularity, reducing bloating and fortifying your body’s defense against foreign invaders.

Ayurveda And Yoga
Ayurveda and Yoga – A yogic system of medicine and Healing
In today’s world, yoga is often thought of as “asanas only,” something like a stretching tool to keep the body limber and agile. People are drawn to yoga as a way to keep fit even though the idea behind the physical practice of yoga is to help the mind to become clear or pure and develop deeper mind-body awareness. A clear mind is not affected by stress and a clear mind produces a healthy body thus creating a greater connection with one’s own pure, essential nature. Similarly, Ayurveda brings with it the knowledge of how to keep the physical body healthy and how this relates to one’s spiritual journey. It addresses our entire lifestyle, including exercise and yoga. However, Ayurveda is highly individualistic and sees each individual as unique and an individual’s path toward perfect health as a unique path. Hence, what is right for each individual is unique to that individual alone.
Both Ayurveda and Yoga , which have their origin in the Vedic texts, address health and health practices. If Ayurveda is the healing aspect, yoga is the spiritual/practical side of the Vedic teachings. Together they emphasize a complete approach to the wellbeing of the body, the mind, and the spirit.
Both sciences have common underlying principles: the well being of an individual at the level of body and mind and the aim of helping an individual re-connect to their true nature through direct and personal experience (pratyeksha in Sanskrit). While yoga prepares the body and mind of the individual for eventual liberation and enlightenment, Ayurveda describes the various ways to keep the body and mind healthy. Both sciences emphasize our close relationship with the environment and how to alter our environment in such a way that it is harmonious with our deepest nature.
Ayurveda addresses all aspects of medicine including diet, herbs, drugs, surgery, bodywork, and its own special clinical procedures like panchakarma. It brings in ritual, mantra, and meditation for healing the mind. In addition, it provides life-style recommendations for health, longevity, and disease prevention as well as special methods for rejuvenation of body and mind. It includes the practices of Yoga from asana and pranayama to mantra and meditation as part of its healing tools.
For a full application of the methods of Yoga for healing purposes, we need a complete medical system that follows the philosophy, principles, and practices of Yoga.We need a yogic system of medicine not simply in terms of asana or physical therapy, but also in regards to internal medicine or diet, herbs, and drugs.
Such a greater yogic system of medicine need not be invented. It already exists in the form of Ayurveda. Ayurveda develops its view of the body and mind, and nature and healing from the background of Yoga philosophy as outlined through the twenty-five tattvas of the Samkhya system. Ayurveda provides us a complete mind-body system of medicine in terms of all aspects of diagnosis and treatment that reflects a Vedic and Yogic approach, values, and wisdom.
Beauty With Nature
Age is a fact of life – Looking your age is not !
Beauty is the desire of every individual to give pleasure to the sense. Beauty is not always related to women rather men are more beauty consciousness as the evolution shows male animals are more beautiful. Some are beauty by birth and some are want to become beautiful . The concept of using herbs for beautification is well defined in Ayurveda. The cosmetic preparations are used for worship and for sensual enjoyment in India since vedic period.
According to the Drugs and Cosmetics Act (India) 1940 cosmetics may be defined as, any substance intended to be rubbed, poured, sprinkled, or otherwise applied to human being for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness. According to Ayurveda happiness, gloom, sadness and relaxation are the aspects that are reflected by the face and by the body and can’t be disguised with cosmetics. In other words, Ayurveda emphasizes on external and internal beauty. It is believed in Ayurveda that one can enhance internal beauty by understanding and following the basic principle of Ayurveda.
As Ayurveda relates to every aspect of the mind, body and the soul, it considers beauty as an intimate part of the human personality. To serve the purpose of fast natural beauty a faster and deeper cleansing and re-balancing is accomplished by using Ayurveda’s traditional rejuvenation therapy.
You are what you eat. Ayurveda takes this notion very seriously. In fact, it goes a step further to say “You are what you digest.” A radiant, clear complexion begins with proper nutrition, efficient digestion and assimilation of nutrients by the body, and regular elimination. It’s all about diet. There are simple ayurvedic principles you can follow, even if you are a newcomer to the system.
Some of the Council of Maharishi Ayurveda Physicians tips on diet and digestion
- Eat your largest meal at mid-day. Your digestive fire is strongest at that time.
- Eat to three-fourths of your capacity.
- Focus on your food. Don’t divide your attention with TV or work.
- Don’t drink ice-cold beverages. They dampen your digestive fire.
- Try to include several different tastes at each meal — sweet, salty, sour, bitter, pungent and astringent.
- Don’t skip meals.
- Include lots of sweet, juicy fruits and green, leafy vegetables in your diet.
- Sip warm water through the day to help flush toxins from the body.
“Because we cannot scrub our inner body we need to learn a few skills to help
cleanse our tissues, organs, and mind. This is the art of Ayurveda.”
-Sebastian Pole
