How to Cook Green Vegetables: It is often said that the more green vegetables you eat, the more benefits your body will get. Green vegetables are rich in nutrients and doctors also advise people to include green vegetables in their diet. Consumption of green vegetables is beneficial for people of all ages. Everyone, from children to the elderly, should eat plenty of green vegetables. According to health experts, eating green vegetables improves digestion and strengthens immunity. These vegetables are also helpful in boosting heart health. Many people like to eat green vegetables raw. Nowadays, raw vegetables are used a lot in sandwiches and noodles. However, this method is not considered correct.

According to Ayurveda, you will get the benefit of eating green vegetables only when you consume it in the right way. Eating vegetables in the wrong way can cause harm to health instead of benefits. Green leafy vegetables are rich in nutrition, but according to Ayurveda, they should be eaten in small quantities and cooked properly. Many green vegetables can increase Vata dosha in the body and are heavy to digest. For this, some better methods have been suggested in Ayurveda, by which the digestion process can be improved while maintaining the nutritional value of green vegetables. Ayurveda clearly says that green vegetables should not be eaten raw.

According to Ayurveda experts, one should avoid eating green vegetables raw, because they may contain dangerous parasites. Tapeworm is especially found in spinach, capsicum and cabbage, which causes serious damage to the stomach and brain. Raw green vegetables contain abundance of Vata. After cooking, the excess of Vata in vegetables reduces. Therefore, boil the green vegetables, then squeeze out the excess water and finally fry them lightly in ghee or oil.

Allow the elderly and children to reduce their intake of green vegetables. In fact, with increasing age, excess of Vata increases in the body and digestion slows down. The digestion of children is also weaker than that of adults. In such a situation, let both elders and children consume vegetables in the right quantity and in the right way. In comparison to green vegetables, give more quantity of ridge gourd, tinda, gourd, parwal and kundru to the elderly and children. It is as nutritious as green vegetables. If children like these vegetables less then they can be mixed with flour and given in the form of paratha or sweets.
