any ayurvedic practitioners in los angeles?

[Guest guest]

hi,

 

I was wondering if somebody could tell me what "jivant" is....I know

it is a vegetable --but is it one that I could find in california?

 

also, if somebody is a vata and wants to lose a little weight (10 lbs

or so)--what is the best way to go about doing this?---just

alleviating kapha producing foods seems to cause nervousness and

aggravation--

 

and also......does anyone know of an ayurvedic practioner in the los

angeles area?

 

thank you, michelle
