An Ayurvedic Look At The Carnivore Diet

Episode Topics

• Modern day Ayurveda is not real Ayurveda as written by Charaka
• Charaka is the original Ayurvedic physician and the author of traditional Ayurveda
• Charaka would have a steak with Shawn Baker (one of the main proponents of the carnivore diet)
• Chapter 9, verse 4 of Charaka Samhita says: "Health is known as happiness while disorder is unhappiness. "
• If you are unhappy, you are sick according to Charaka
• Charaka Samhita says the sicker you are, the more cooked meat you should be eating
• Ayurveda was not written by yogis looking for enlightenment
• The rishis who composed Ayurveda wanted to thrive
• The "bible" of modern day's yoga, the Patanjali Sutras is a lot newer than traditional Ayurveda
• For long term thriving, Charaka advocates maintaining a dynamic balance in everything we do
• The term that is repeatedly used by Charaka is "equilibrium"
• Equilibrium of our doshas, dhatus (tissues) and digestive fire
• As humans, we are not meant to sustain extremes for a long period of time
• As humans, we are meant to always adapt in order to maintain an equilibrium that allows "flow"
• If we are not careful, when we try to remove ourselves from one extreme situation, we create its opposite extreme situation
• The carnivore diet is an ayurvedic diet
• Veganism and vegetarianism are not ayurvedic diets
