Abstract

VIRUDDHA AHARA IN AYURVEDA: UNDERSTANDING HARMFUL FOOD PAIRINGS AND THEIR IMPACT

Prof. Manohar Ram*

ABSTRACT

Viruddha Ahara is a unique and important idea in Ayurveda that explains how certain food combinations can harm the body. This article reviews the concept in detail, focusing on incompatible food pairings and wrong processing methods. According to Ayurveda, any diet that disturbs normal body functions, prevents proper tissue formation, or acts opposite to the body’s natural properties is called Viruddha Ahara. Such incompatibility can happen due to wrong food combinations, improper cooking, incorrect amounts, eating at the wrong time, or during unsuitable seasons. The article also explains modern views on these incompatibilities, such as Sanskara Viruddha (wrong processing), Veerya Viruddha (opposite potency), and Samyoga Viruddha (wrong combination). It also lists common incompatible foods we eat today and explains how they can harm health.
