The Importance of Healthy Digestion an Ayurvedic Guide to Understanding Agni
The Importance of Healthy Digestion An Ayurvedic Guide to Understanding Agni The concept of agni, the Sanskrit word for “fire,” is rather essential to the Ayurvedic tradition. Ayurveda views agni as the very source of life. It is said that a man is as old as his agni and that when agni is extinguished, we die.1 Perhaps even more significantly, Ayurveda teaches us that impaired agni is at the root of every imbalance and disease. So the importance of agni in Ayurveda simply cannot be understated. This resource is intended to give you a deeper understanding and appreciation of agni, while offering you some practical tools with which to tend to your own agni. 800.953.6424 | BANYANBOTANICALS.COM 1 What is Agni? Fire has been worshiped throughout human history. In fact, Indo-European languages often had two distinct words for it: one for an inanimate form of fire, one for an animate form.2 Interestingly, the English word “fire” was born out of the inanimate form.2 On the other hand, the Sanskrit word agni (pronounced uhg-nih) is one of the oldest known words for the living, breathing variety of fire. Agni is also the root from which a number of words evoking the dynamic nature of fire emerged: “ignis” (Latin), “ugnis” (Old Prussian), as well as “ignite” and “igneous” (English).1, 2 As its etymological history suggests, the deeper significance of the Sanskrit word agni is profound—sacred, even. The Vedic culture revered fire for its light, its warmth, and its ability to cook food.3 But the Vedic understanding of agni extends well beyond “fire” in its physical form.

Digestion and Elimination
Anne Fischer-Silva, CNT, LE DIGESTION AND ELIMINATION It has been said “You are what you eat.” We all understand the importance of eating nutrient-dense foods in order to achieve optimal health. A bigger issue, however, is how much of the nutrients in the foods you eat are actually absorbed and utilized? A more important and accurate statement might be “You are what you assimilate from what you eat”. The difference between the nutrients present in foods and how your body uses them represents the distinction between diet and nutrition. Diet is made up of what you eat. Nutrition is what your body does with the food. So then, you may ask, is it possible to eat a very healthy, nutrient-rich diet and still not obtain adequate nutrition from the food consumed? The answer is YES! Malabsorption is a term used to describe an overall reduction in digestive efficiency and performance. Many factors are involved with malabsorption – from stress to parasites. The human gastrointestinal tract is a complex system of mental, chemical, and mechanical functions. Digestive symptoms are some of the most common complaints today in the U.S. Many people have acclimated so completely to their poorly functioning digestive tract, they may come to think it is normal. Symptoms like bloating, excessive flatulence, constipation, and diarrhea are quite common, and yet they are signs of a dysfunctional GI tract. Here is a description of what optimal digestion looks like: • Digestion starts in the brain. It begins when we anticipate the act of eating. When we see and smell food, our brain signals the release of saliva.

Digestive Calm Patient Ed Sheet
Digestive Calm: Synergistic blend of herbal bitters to support healthy digestion* Digestive Calm is a powerful digestive support formula containing herbal bitters designed to optimize healthy digestion and help reduce occasional gastrointestinal discomfort after meals, such as gas, bloating, and excessive fullness.* This product is ideal for individuals who are sensitive to supplementation with hydrochloric acid (HCl, stomach acid) and for vegetarians and vegans who may benefit from digestive support but who prefer to avoid animal-sourced digestive enzymes. (Many digestive support products contain enzymes and bile of animal origin. Digestive Calm is completely free of these ingredients and contains solely plant-based compounds.) Proper digestive function lays the foundation for physical and mental health. The body is dependent on a steady supply of macro- and micronutrients (protein, fat, carbohydrate, vitamins and minerals) that must be liberated from the food you eat and then properly absorbed into the body. Proper timing, strength and secretion of stomach acid, gastric juices and pancreatic enzymes set the stage for effective nutrient absorption and also support immune function by neutralizing foodborne pathogens early in the digestive process. Hippocrates was close to the mark when he said that all disease begins in the gut, but actions in the intestines are influenced first by what occurs in the stomach. Digestive Calm features compounds with long histories of effective use in herbal and complementary medicine around the world: •
