Also, it has slightly alkalizing effect on the body whereas butter has a slightly acidifying effect. It is widely used in Ayurvedic massages and supplements.

Also, butter increases Kapha (one of the three dosha or energetic forces of nature that compose the universe and everything in it) whereas ghee is suitable for all the 3 doshas when consumed in moderation.

To better understand the significance of ghee in Ayurveda and why to choose it as a mode of preparation; it is helpful to turn to its linguistic roots. Interestingly enough, the word for oil in Sanskrit is snehana, and ghee is a type of oil after all. The word snehana contains the root sneha, defined as love, affection, and unctuousness. This inherent link between lipids and love is an excellent indication of the subtle effects that ghee imparts. “Sneha also means love…Sneha is a bonded, secure love relationship” Thus, ghee is incredibly rejuvenating on a deep level, and is one of the premier foods for building and maintaining ojas, our vital life sap.
