Dry fruits, also known as dried fruits or nuts, have been prized for centuries for their nutritional richness and health benefits. According to Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of holistic medicine, dry fruits are considered to be a valuable source of energy and essential nutrients. They are believed to balance the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), enhance digestion, and promote overall well-being.
Ayurveda views dry fruits as a concentrated source of prana (life force) and essential nutrients. They are classified based on their taste, potency, and effects on the doshas.
