- Rose Petals – According to Ayurveda, it’s not a coincidence rose is associated with love and romance. It balances the sadhaka pitta that governs the emotions of the heart. It’s cooling in nature and is balancing for all three doshas.
- Lime Juice – Lime juice is cooling and pacifies pitta dosha while lemon juice has a heating quality.
- Himalayan Salt – High quality, high mineral salts like Celtic Salt or Himalayan Salt, aid in absorption of nutrients and work as electrolytes when included in our diet. White table salt is the culprit of water retention, edema, and bloating.
