The evidence behind this quiz

Ayurveda's prakriti (constitution) framework is an ancient system that classifies mind-body types by the balance of vata, pitta, and kapha. It's a tool for self-understanding, not a medical diagnosis — but modern researchers have studied whether these constitutional types map to measurable biological and phenotypic differences.
