Healthy Eating for Body and Mind

Healthy Eating and Yoga to Live Longer

Healthy Eating Tips for Women’s Health

Kevala Health believes the foods we eat play an important role in everyday living, from our energy levels, and our moods, to our organ and mental health.

We have researched and combined theories from Ayurveda (the sister science of Yoga) and superfoods that will help bring more harmony and strength to your body and mind.

What we eat is very important for not only our body but also our mental health. We have outlined briefly below the main foods to eat more to help you improve your health naturally. Aim to reduce or not take prescribed medications, alcohol, and smoking, as this lowers your immunity, ages the body, and higher the risk of disease and sickness.

Did you know our gut health is connected to mental health?

I’m in my 50’s now and learning it’s even more important to eat right. I’m a big believer to eat more plant-based foods where possible to help reduce body aches, reduce inflammation in the body and improve depression and anxiety. If you are going through menopause like me, you will also benefit from eating more plant-based foods.

Start with small changes to your eating habits and notice the positive changes and grow from there. Kevala Health is exploring and creating new recipes using superfoods and Ayurveda science to help with anti-aging and healthier living.
