Frequently asked questions
But in today’s day, many foods you eat could be the cause of your health problems – even if they are healthy ones. What is healthy for one may be unhealthy or even toxic for another person who has a different body type, different health disorders and other set of unique issues. The definition of “healthy food” varies from person to person, because everyone is unique and different.
It is important that our digestive system functions optimally, and that our basic nutritional needs are met to avoid the disease process. In the twenty-first century we have progressed in our scientific knowledge tremendously, but our genes are still millions of years old and require the same ancient basic nutrition. Unfortunately, our basic food chain (air, water, food) has been badly corrupted. Our food has been altered from the food our ancestors ate; hence, the increase of cancers, heart diseases, diabetes, auto-immune diseases and many other chronic diseases. Thus it is important to eat pure, organic unadulterated foods that are right for you, in order to achieve optimal health, energy and happiness.
According to the ancient Indian texts of health and healing, all diseases can be cured by following dietetic rules carefully along with the proper herbal supplements; but if a patient does not attend to his diet, a hundred good medicines will not cure him.
EATING FOR YOUR AGE AND SPECIFIC BODY TYPE:
Divine Diet offers a logical and scientific approach for determining correct diet based upon an individual’s constitution. Vata, pitta and kapha; the tri-dosha, are the elements which comprise individual constitution. This approach is quite different from the “traditional” view of a balanced diet; viz., eating daily from the basic food groups; meat, dairy, fruit, grains and vegetables. Such a scheme is insufficient to lead us to the path of good health.
One should eat according to one’s constitution and take fruits, starches, proteins and fats separately at different times of the day. When one eats an incompatible combination of foods, nature flashes a distress signal in the form of indigestion, acid reflux (acidity), fermentation, putrefaction, belching, vomiting, loose motion or diarrhea and gas formation. This condition, if prolonged, can lead to toxemia and disease complex.
One’s diet should change with the seasons and with the place they live in. The primary reason why people fall sick when seasons change is that we continue doing the same thing, eating the same foods day after day. We are heedless to the gentle prodding of nature which suggests we change our habits with the seasons. Divine Diet teaches you this art of “Ritucharya” – which means adapting yourself, your lifestyle to remain in sync with nature for optimal health through all seasons.
Not only that, but our diet continues to be the same year after year even as we grow older. The child, adolescent, adult and seniors in the house eat the same food. This is inappropriate. Every age group has its own nutritional needs which have to be met.
During childhood our digestive ability is at its peak. Hence rich nutritional diet consumed will be optimally digested, the nutrients will be saved in the body and the reserves used for several years to come.
The adolescent also has a fairly strong constitution or digestive ability and needs nutrients particularly to nourish the brain and nervous system to deal with the stress and intellectual demands of modern day education.
As it ages the body needs more frequent maintenance and rejuvenation in order to keep it functioning optimally. As the human body grows older, tissue regeneration and metabolism slows down. your physique loses considerably of its natural ability to burn calories quickly. Over the age of 40 the body has lesser capacity to absorb and assimilate nutrients from the food consumed. All this manifests into an older looking body, hormone imbalance, lack of interest in life, depression and diminished libido. A carefully designed diet is required by the body to battle the deterioration of the tissue.
In senior years with the downward trend of the body’s functions, the diet has to be modified accordingly to provide the right nutrition while causing minimal strain on the organs.
Further dietary requirements will vary based on a person’s nature of work, stress-level, environment, genetics and other factors. These factors are carefully studied during counseling to provide the most suitable diet plan for you.
WRONG FOOD COMBINATIONS:
Sometimes you may be eating best foods but due to wrong combination these become harmful to us rather than beneficial. Hence it is desirable that one should understand the laws of food combination and their scientific basis. Many are falling under the sting of this vicious deception, believing that we can put anything together, as long as it is good for us and we will be fine. This is very wrong. Improper food combination hinders mind and body development and health.
ADULTERATION IN FOOD:
Adulteration and contamination of food is widespread in our society. In India normally the contamination/adulteration in food is done either for financial gain or due to carelessness and lack of proper hygiene in processing, storing, transportation and marketing. This ultimately results that the consumer is either cheated or often becomes victim of diseases.
By adulteration we not only mean unscrupulous addition of harmful foreign substances to food stuffs but also addition of chemical preservatives, colors and stabilizers. Food adulterants and contaminants are known to cause severe health problems such as cardiac arrest, paralysis, digestive problems, cancer, blurred vision and even death.

THE INTUITIVE WISDOM ALREADY LIVES INSIDE OF YOU.

In Divine Diet Counseling our experts guide you not only on the right foods to eat but also on:

WHAT IS AN ORGANIC MINDSET:
In order to adopt an truly organic, natural lifestyle it is important to be flexible and to adapt to nature. It is necessary that you accept the dietary guidelines provided and change your eating habits as per our recommendations. Our Diet Counselors will make customized diet plans, recipes and menus for you based on your health needs, body type and availability of food items.
It is not enough to merely purchase products marked “organic” at the grocery store. Organic food habits would have to be coupled with making your lifestyle, your behavior and your mind-set organic. The organic mindset is flexible. An organic lifestyle is to live in sync with nature (the changes in season, climatic conditions, availability of food products, etc.)
If you want things as per your convenience, to suit your whims and eating urges, they are available at the supermarket 24/7. But those products available off the shelf at the supermarket, found neatly packaged and preserved for year round consumption, are NOT really organic. They are beautifully packaged and preserved dead bodies of things once living. It would be wrong to call them “organic”. These mass-produced items are stripped of a major portion of their nutritive value during processing and also laced with preservatives and artificial colours and flavours for mass appeal.
Divine Diet food products are free of preservatives, pesticides and other additives. They are brought to you FRESH in their true, raw, authentic form without any kind of processing. Hence our food products have to be bought and consumed as and when they become available in nature. Divine Diet groceries are not produced on a mass-scale. They are available in limited quantities as dictated by nature. Divine Diet organic snacks etc. are prepared fresh in small batches in a homely environment only when order is placed and not in a factory. Hence it is not always possible to purchase these things for instant gratification as and when you want them. Here supply may not always meet the demand.
At Divine Diet we do not believe in branding, marketing, packaging or preserving. It is not our intention to market or sell or to convince anyone. We do not expect people to take our word for it; we ask you to be the judge based on your experience. Our quality speaks for itself. Our goal is to merely share the best with you. Having consumed the market-bought foods for so many years you can easily tell the difference in taste, quality and health benefits when you try DIVINE DIET products.
