In Ayurved, solutions for all body problems depend on three elements - Vata(air), Pitta(fire) & Kapha(Earth). If any one of them gets imbalanced in our body, then we face diseases related to that element. That's why it is very important to know our body type. Here "dominant" means that particular element is little more compared to other elements. So we should add those food items in our daily diet which can control the dominance of that element to balance Vata, Pitta & Kapha. 10am to 2pm & 10pm to 2am is Pitta time as per Ayurved. Young age relates to Pitta, at this age Pitta Dosha manifests in the body. In today's generation, age between 14 to 45 comes under young age.
