As we transition from Winter into Spring, we may experience different cravings, difficulty in digesting heavier foods, and a preference for lighter and fresher meals. 

You may experience a decrease in appetite and feel a need to cleanse your body. 

Follow these Ayurvedic guidelines for a Springtime diet to purify the body, reduce heaviness, and support your digestion. 

For breakfast, start your day with a light meal of fresh seasonal fruits such as avocado, mango, pineapple, kiwis, and strawberries with a nice cup of herbal tea. 

For lunch and dinner, enjoy cooked legumes, steamed veggies, and incorporate spices such as ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon. Bitter greens, cruciferous veggies, onions, and other astringent/pungent/bitter foods are also extremely beneficial during this time of the year. 

Below is a short and sweet list of foods/spices that are purifying and cleansing during this time of transition.
