"You are what you eat" is a saying that is taken seriously in Ayurveda. The Name 'Ayurveda originates from two Indian words: 'Ayur', meaning life, and 'Veda', meaning knowledge or science. The oldest known "Science of Life stresses our diet or 'ahara' impacts both, our physical and emotional wellbeing and hence, is the first and foremost pillar of science. There is a sloka (Writing of the ancient texts of Ayurveda) that says "food is medicine when consumed properly" and that improper diet produces toxins or 'ama' in the body which is the root cause of diseases and ill health. From the curative perspective, while diet alone may not be the cure of all diseases, its proper intake can keep ailments away and under control.
