The festivals we celebrate there in the autumn season means the days from Navratri to Devdiwali, Diwali is the most important among these festivals. On Diwali we welcome our guests and friends with different types of sweets.

Diwali means the beginning of winter season. From these Diwali days, with the onset of winter, the animal's stomach becomes strong. As the weather of the season becomes cool and pleasant, the body heat stays inside, so the Jathragni remains strong. Such a strong Jathragni easily digests nutritious food items like sweets.

The sweet taste of different types of sweets prepared in Diwali is inherent to human beings from birth. Satamya means the pradhan substances sugar-sugar, jaggery, mava, ghee etc. are called sweet in Ayurvedic texts.

Foods with sweet juices falling into sweets nourish the body with the juices of blood, flesh, fat and metal. Ayurveda has a clear view that strength cannot be obtained without the sweet juice in sweets. Modern people also agree with this view of Ayurveda. According to modern opinion, sugars and carbohydrates in sweets produce energy by burning in the body. Shakti means 'Strength' and thus Ayurveda says that strength cannot be obtained without sweet juice. Modernists say that energy cannot be obtained without carbohydrates, so both views are correct.

Winter is the season of health. So we eat vasana-pak - sweets in winter. And we start it on the day of Diwali or every year by making our mouths salty with sweets.

In Ayurveda it is said that the sweet juice of sweets is energizing, sustains life, calms the mind and senses, improves the color of the body, improves the eyes, strengthens the hair, improves the skin, improves the throat, satisfies the body and mind, sustains life, satiates the body. A tonic, a tonic, an increaser of metal along with the sap of the body, a healer of internal ulcers of the stomach, a fixer of fractured bones, a reliever of diseases caused by bilious irritation, the effects of poisons, thirst and inflammation, and a destroyer of gas. Swallowed juice is essential for children, the elderly, the weak, thin, those who want to gain weight and those debilitated by disease. It is for this reason that ingested juicy substances are considered nutritious.

Different types of sweetmeats are viscous, cold, soft and difficult to digest, so their continuous consumption causes affection, coldness, malady and heaviness in the body, increase in weight and it is said to be enticing and pleasing to the nose, tongue, eyes, throat, lips and mind.

Ayurvedic practice of delineating food and medicine by only six rasas is well known. Dietary herbs with sweet juices are cold, viscous in nature, heavy in digestion and tonic.

According to the modern view, the sweet substances in sweets are carbohydrates. In this, sweet juices like sugar-glucose, dextrose etc. are special in different types of sweets.

Most of the proteins in desserts also have the same non-nitrogen content as carbohydrates. That is why it can also be calculated in sweet interest.

Fatty substances like ghee, oil, butter, nuts, dry fruits, cashews, charoli etc. fall into sweet category. Apart from the function of such fatty-oily substances in making food substances, it also has special importance in daily diet as it is a shelter of vitamins A, E and D.

Despite the importance of sweet juice in sweets, if sour, salty, pungent, bitter and sour juices are neglected in the daily diet, then if only sweet juice like sweets are consumed in excess, it is not necessary and also harmful.

If sweets are used excessively in the diet, kapha diseases, fat growth, obesity, weakness, laziness, hypersomnolence, disinterest, anorexia, tonsils, asthma, breathing, cough, cold, hoarseness in children etc. Apart from this, diabetes, eye diseases, goiter, goitre, boils, skin diseases, phlegm diseases, constipation, colds, stomach worms, urticaria, tetanus, moles etc. are likely to occur.

Thus, excessive use of sweetened juices is harmful and moderate use is healthy, so it should be used in such a way that other juices are not neglected. In Ayurveda, it is instructed to use six juices in the diet. Thus the diet should be full of Shadras.

Cholaphali

As soon as a dish of 'cholafali' is placed in front of you, the salivary glands of your mouth are activated and water is released from your mouth. This cholaphali is made from rice. So let's think about chola here in terms of health.

Protein is what strengthens our body. Vegetarians get the most protein from legumes. That is why pulses have a special importance in our daily diet. Beans such as chickpeas, urad, val, peas, soya, Kalto Choli, Mung, Math, Tuvar etc. contain protein. So any one of these pulses should be used in our daily diet.

The talk starts with a bang. So let's know only about Chola. Chola is native to Central Africa. And from there it came to us. Groundnut, chickpea, tomato, tobacco etc. many things have come to us from other countries.

We have three types of fire there. Dhola, Rata and Kalachola and choli are slightly different. Choli is early fruiting. Chickpeas are late fruiting. The bodices are long and thick. Rice pods are somewhat small and thin. Choli has three or four types. Choli looks tastier than chola. This chola choli is used in different ways in the diet. Green choli is mostly used as a vegetable. Dry choli or chola is used in boiling and eating.

Large chickpeas are considered the best in terms of nutrition. Boiled rice tastes better if cooked in sesame oil. These chickpeas are made into papad, vadi, and cholaphali.

Consuming rice with sesame oil is more nutritious. Many of these cholas also cost money. Also produces gas, bloating and bad breath in the stomach. Chola is palatable, lukha, vayada, tura, tarpan, heavy on digestion and kalpa - i.e. fecal binder. Increases gas, kapha and milk. Shitala, Sarak, Vrishya, are laborers and troublemakers.
