Pineapple
Also called: ananas
Sweet-sour and warming — a digestive fruit that settles Vata and cuts Kapha.
How Pineapple 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 | Balancing | Calms Vata — favour it when Vata runs high. |
| Pitta | Use sparingly | Can raise Pitta — go easy when Pitta runs high. |
| Kapha | Balancing | Calms Kapha — favour it when Kapha runs high. |
When to go easy
Sour and heating, so a tart one tells on Pitta.
Traditionally balanced with
Classical pairings that make Pineapple easier to digest or more balancing for the doshas.
