Desi Ghee
According to Ayurveda, fresh, pure Ghee is a vital natural ingredient for the body and is considered to be a satvik or ‘positive food’. It is one of the more easily digestible fats that balance heat elements in the body, and hence becomes a wonderful choice for Pitta Dosha. In ancient India, Cow’s Ghee was used for everything, from nourishing the body internally and externally to calming and soothing the mind.
