Abstract

Introduction - According to Ayurvedic traditions, this is Dadhi Sevan, or the eating of yoghurt, which affects not only different types of health and disease but also mental moods and attributes. The purpose of this review is to shed light on Dadhi Sevan's mystery and its effects on three Mansik Gunas, each of whom has a unique mental state and condition. Methods: A thorough literature survey was conducted on this subject, reviewing the most recent research, historical texts, and cross-cultural perspectives on the relationship between nutrition and psychological equilibrium, with a focus on Dadhi Sevan in particular. Results: Based on existing research, Dadhi Sevan mostly improves clarity, relaxation, emotional equilibrium, and Sattva. Reviewing the studies, it seems that there is an imbalance between inertia (Tamas) and activity (Rajas) that yogurt can help with. Numerous academics support the idea that eating plays a significant role in controlling mental health and general well-being. Conclusion: Dadhi Sevan has great potential to improve psychological well-being by balancing Rajas-Tamas and increasing Sattva. This critical analysis emphasizes how urgently Ayurvedic eating practices must be included into contemporary health models in order to improve mental health and promote spiritual development. It is recommended that more research be done to examine the long-term effects of diet planning on Mansik Gunas.
