What You'll Learn
Agni explained: Agni is the digestive fire centered in the stomach area that helps digest food and emotions, supports metabolism, and promotes a healthy immune system.
Ayurvedic digestion support: During an Ayurvedic cleanse, agni helps digest, burn, and flush the ama (natural toxins) the cleanse seeks to eliminate, playing an important cleansing role.

Any food that we consume, agni helps us digest. Any emotions that come to us, agni helps us digest. It also helps with our metabolism and with promoting a healthy immune system.
During an Ayurvedic cleanse specifically, agni is important because it helps us digest, burn, and flush the ama (natural toxins) that we're trying to eliminate by cleansing.
Agni is, therefore, super important—especially during a cleanse!
