The dish's simplicity and the inclusion of spices like turmeric and cumin add anti-inflammatory benefits, making it ideal for cleansing and healing the body according to Ayurvedic practices. In Ayurveda, khichdi is especially recommended during detoxes for its ability to balance the body's doshas (vital energies) and promote digestive health.
