sh50 Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 My natural constitution is Vata type. I play Tennis for about an hour or an hour and a half everyday. To avoid cramps in Tennis, one has to eat bananas/potatoes before playing to get sufficient potaasium. The problem is that bannanas/potatoes are Kapha aggravating. According to an Ayurvedic website:- Eating too much cold, mucus producing (kapha aggravating) foods can shift our internal environment, thus making us more susceptible to colds, especially in the fall and winter months.In Ayurveda the winter and spring seasons are associated with kapha dosha. Kapha has cold, heavy, wet, slimy, sticky, and hard qualities. These qualities accumulate in the cold months and become provoked in the spring as the weather warms up and starts to thaw them out. When kapha and ama are left to accumulate, they eventually enter into and congest the rasa dhatu, or lymphatic tissue. This can lead to repeated colds, coughs, flu and respiratory congestion. I do not like to miss Tennis for even a day but if I eat bananas everyday, I may perhaps be vulnerable to severe cold which I am experiencing currently. Can anybody suggest something that takes care of the cramps without causing cold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
