KANSA - THE KING OF KITCHEN

In the Bhava Prakasha Nighantu, the following verse is mentioned:

“Kāṃsya pātra śākhānna bhojeneṣa, dīpanaṃ matam, balyaṃ netra vṛṣyaṃ, pācanaṃ ca tridoṣa śamanaṃ matam, kṣayaroga viṣaṃ caiva nāśame munibhiḥ parikīrtitam.”

Explanation of the Verse:

This shloka clearly describes the five main health benefits of eating food from bronze (Kansa) vessels.

1. Kāṃsya pātra śākhānna bhojeneṣa:
This refers to eating vegetarian food cooked and served in bronze utensils. The verse explains the advantages of doing so.

2. Dīpanam (Enhances Digestion):
Eating food from bronze vessels improves the digestive process. It stimulates appetite and helps the body digest food properly, thereby increasing overall digestive strength.

3. Balyam (Gives Strength):
Food consumed from bronze utensils helps strengthen the body. It boosts immunity, enhances physical vitality, and keeps the body robust and energetic.

4. Netra Vṛṣyam (Good for Eyes):
Bronze vessels are beneficial for eye health. According to Ayurveda, they help improve eyesight and reduce eye-related issues.

5. Pācanaṃ ca Tridoṣa Śamanam Matam (Balances the Three Doshas):
In Ayurveda, the body’s health depends on the balance of the three doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
Eating from bronze vessels helps balance these three doshas, thereby promoting overall well-being and maintaining harmony in the body.

6. Kṣayaroga Viṣaṃ Caiva Nāśame (Destroys Toxins and Tuberculosis-like Diseases):
This is one of the most important benefits.
Consuming food from bronze utensils helps eliminate toxins from the body and provides relief from chronic diseases like Kṣaya (tuberculosis).
Ayurvedic sages have praised bronze vessels for their detoxifying and disease-preventing properties.

✅ In summary:
Eating food from bronze utensils:

• Improves digestion

• Increases strength

• Benefits eyesight

• Balances the three doshas

• Eliminates toxins and protects from chronic diseases

Ancient Ayurvedic texts thus consider bronze vessels highly beneficial for maintaining good health and longevity.
