It keeps the digestive agni high, lubricates the inner lining of the stomach that nullifies the spicy food you eat after, prevents constipation, lubricates joints and moisturises skin from within.

You know what we’re talking about! Yup, it’s Ghee!

❔ Why should you consume ghee at the beginning of your meals?
✅ Ghee is heavy to digest, therefore it should be consumed when digestive fire is highest
✅ Ghee increases digestive agni, aiding the digestion of the food consumed after
✅ Ghee protects the inner lining of stomach, that nullifies the spicy food that you eat after
According to Ayurvedic tradition, ghee is typically consumed at the beginning of a meal. This practice is based on the principle of eating heavier foods first, followed by lighter ones.
❔But does this mean that you can only consume ghee before your meals❓
❌No. Not necessarily. Ghee can be consumed at the beginning of the meal, during the meal or in some cases, at the end of the meal too. 👉🏼In the case of spicy food, ghee can also be consumed at the end of the meal. This is so because spicy food keeps the digestive strength high enough to digest ghee even after the meal. 👉🏼 Also, in case of hot, freshly cooked meals, ghee can be consumed towards the end of the meal.
❔What are some other ways to incorporate ghee in your routine❓
✅ Sauté vegetables in ghee
✅ Melt over steamed vegetables
✅ Cook food (like dal) in ghee
✅ Add ghee to roti and rice
✅ Add a teaspoon of ghee to your coffee
✅ Drink a spoonful of ghee (early in the morning, on an empty stomach)
