Puranpoli - Science behind eating it in Diwali

India is a country rich in number of various cultures with full of festivals and rituals. There is legacy of speciality food preparations for all these festivals. Our ancestors apprised the method of preparations and the science behind these foods.

Now we are talking about festival foods and its Diwali time, so how can we forget about the delicious and famous “Puranpoli”. Yes Puranpoli is the royal dish of Maharashtra. So lets take a look why we eat puranpoli specifically during this festival? And what are the health benefits of it?



Ayurveda describe puranpoli as it makes body strong, enhance exuberance, pacify vata dosha, and act as an appetizer. But it is quiet heavy to digest so one should eat as instructed*.

Diwali is winter festival when the climate becomes colder by the day , so the vata dosha starts to increase.





*Puranpoli should be roasted properly and should be consumed with ample ghee.

So offer this delicious food to your loved ones and to yourself on this diwali along with health. Enjoy to the fullest.

Happy Diwali to all readers.

Stay healthy. Stay tuned.
