In Hinduism’s approach to health, which is deeply influenced by Ayurvedic principles, digestion is considered a cornerstone of well-being. This perspective is founded on the concept of Agni, or digestive fire, which is not merely about the process of digesting food but also encompasses the metabolic and transformative energies that sustain life. A strong and balanced Agni is believed to be essential for good health, as it ensures the efficient assimilation of nutrients and the elimination of toxins, thereby preventing disease and promoting longevity.
