Food Served in Isha centre

Stress on uncooked food in the form of salads is pronounced.
A rare variety of porridges with nutritive value are a way of eating. Served on banana leaves is good.
Food In Isha centre
The bland food is structured to generate a satwik mood.

Twice a day at 10 am and 7 pm, the meditators are offered sukku (dry ginger powder), coffee and tea.

Lemon and honey tea is served during the post noon session with a bowl of fruits. The day, however, begins with the consumption of neem leaf balls and turmeric balls with a glass of hot water for cleansing the system.
The food inevitably is cooked sans garlic and onions, as the ashram considers them as negative influences.
Rice and wheat are also served in turns and sprouts, soaked grams, cut vegetables, fruits and nuts are included on a daily basis.
On an average, at least fifty per cent of the meals served are uncooked.
A bountiful vegetable garden nurtured by the ashram supplies vegetables for the kitchen on a daily basis but on special occasions .
