Granola
Also called: toasted muesli
Baked with oil and honey, so it is more grounding than raw muesli — best with warm milk.
How Granola affects your doshas
In Ayurveda a food's effect depends on your constitution. This is the lens the app uses to suggest what to favour and ease off.
| Dosha | Suitability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Vata | Use sparingly | Can raise Vata — go easy when Vata runs high. |
| Pitta | Neutral | Broadly neutral for Pitta. |
| Kapha | Use sparingly | Can raise Kapha — go easy when Kapha runs high. |
When to go easy
Toasted, crunchy and low-moisture, so it can unsettle Vata; oats, nuts and sweetener still add to Kapha.
