Hello Readers and My Dear Patients,
Pickles a general item for a good Meal.
It
is quiet common especially in south Indian meal menu.
The major ingredients are Sesame oil,Red Chilly,Salt,Mango or Lemon slices.
It is an food-adjuvent because it adds the taste
of the meal and enhance the production of digestive enzymes,so it will promote good
appetite.
And it induces the taste buds too. So we will have an nicely
enjoyable meal.
But in certain diseased condition it is
contra indicated in Acidity,Esophageal ulcers,Belching,Chest burn,Skin
diseases,Arthritis and Obesity.
In Acidity and Ulcer condition when take
pickle it will enhance the production of digestive enzymes and acids hence it
will aggravates the illness.
In case of Skin diseases; according to
ayurveda skin diseases occurs due to the vitiation of the blood.
The
pungent,salty and sour tastes will aggravates the vitiation of the blood and it
is not good for the skin diseases.
In the Arthritis cases also the blood
(Raktha Dhathu) is vitiating so we should avoid Pickle.
In Obesity condition; as the pickle enhance
the gastric juice secretion and promotes good appetite,we will tend to eat more
and more which leads to the weight gaining again.
So in the above mentioned conditions it is
better to avoid the Pickles in your menu.
