Ayurvedic Healing Ingredients
Some of the Ayurvedic energetics of the ingredients in this Tabbouleh Salad include:
Parsley
A bitter herb, parsley is high in Air and Space energy. It helps to cleanse “ama,” or undigested food and toxins from the body. It helps to scrape built-up plaque and toxins within the blood vessels, lungs, heart, liver, spleen, and gallbladder. It is excellent for edema, varicose veins, and poor circulation from stagnated blood flow.
Bulgur
Bulgur is parboiled and dried cracked whole wheat. It retains all of the fiber and wheat germ in the whole grain. It is excellent for the digestion and easier to digest than processed whole wheat flour. It has a “warming,” Earth energy, which helps to calm the nervous system, heal constipation and diarrhea, and clear dry or inflamed skin.
