What is Agni?
Agni is the digestive fire responsible for breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and maintaining metabolic balance. Strong Agni supports energy, immunity, and overall health, while weak Agni leads to digestion-related disorders.
- Governs digestion and metabolism
- Supports nutrient absorption
- Maintains energy and immunity
What is Ama?
Ama is toxic, undigested waste formed due to weak digestion. It accumulates in the gut and tissues, blocking channels and becoming the root cause of many chronic digestive and lifestyle diseases.
- Formed from incomplete digestion
- Causes toxin buildup
- Triggers gut and metabolic issues
