In our previous article on Aahar. we saw that correct combination of food (sanyog) is one of the most important thing to be considered while taking Aahar.
According to ayurveda every food has its own taste which we call Rasa,a heating or cooling energy which we call Virya ,and post digestive effect which we call as Vipaka. Also Some may possess Prabhava meaning unexplainable special effects.
When two or more foods having same or different tastes (rasa) ,energy (virya) and post digestive effects (vipaka) are combined wrongly, Fire of Stomach (jathragni) can become overburdened , disturbing the process of digestion which results in production of Aama (improperly digested food particles or toxic substances)
