16. What is the main idea of this passage? ANSWER BOTH QUESTIONS! What is Ayurveda?(This is the Title, not the question)
Ayurveda is an alternative health system. It began in India over five thousand years ago and is still widely used there. The word itself combines two Sanskrit words for life and knowledge, or science. It is a complete medical system and emphasizes the mind's effect on the body. Balance is a key concept. For your body to be free of disease, your mind must be in balance. Mental balance will naturally extend to the body. This balance extends to your diet. Proper diet is the basis of good health. Every ayurvedic meal includes all six tastes: sweet, salty, bitter, sour, spicy, and sharp. Meals are designed this way to prevent cravings and ensure satisfaction. Preparing food this way requires a lot of skill. For this reason, ayurvedic chefs are very well paid.
