Wine
Also called: red wine, white wine, wein
In small amounts a little dry wine is mildly warming and can lighten Kapha.
How Wine 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 | 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, sharp and heating — it aggravates Pitta and the alcohol dries and unsettles Vata.
