According to Ayurved, there are 3 kinds of body type Vata, Pitta and Kapha. It means dominance of particular element will be more in body. For example Kapha body type will have dominance of Kapha over Vata and Pitta. Similarly we can see Pitta body type will have more dominance of Pitta over Kapha & Vata. And Vata body type will have Vata dominance over Pitta & Kapha. Due to wrong food consumption or odd food consumption(which is opposite in nature) it has seen that there are mixed body types also exist nowadays. For example :
Kapha body type with Pitta & Vata mix up
Pitta body type with Vata & Kapha mix up
Vata body type with Pitta & Kapha mix up
They have mixed characteristics of Vata & Kapha. Most common thing in them is coldness because Vata and Kapha both are cold in nature.
a.Vata dominant Kapha (Means Vata is more in their body compared to Kapha).
b.Kapha dominant Vata (Means Kapha is more in their body compared to Vata).
