- For example: Fruits, vegetables, grains, plants, herbs, animals and humans are comprised of different combinations of the Mahabhutas, which is why herbs can be digested by the body while synthetic medicines cannot. Mahabhutas with opposite qualities are used in treatment with the goal of maintaining or restoring balance. For example, to lose weight (heaviness is a quality of the earth element) we use lighter foods (popcorn is predominantly comprised of the air element). In lightheadedness we use grounding, heavy foods such as particular nuts and seeds (soaked overnight in water) or root vegetables. In Pitta aggravation (heat), we use bitter and astringent herbs (cooling) and use cooling foods such as salads, fruits or grains
