Pitta is related with fire and control digestion and metabolism, body temperature, and
biological transformations in the body. Usually Pitta people have strong efficient digestion,
they can generally eat just about everything but they should include cool or warm food in
their diet with less butter and added fat. Excessive use of salt, overuse of sour and spicy food
and overeating are the main causes that trouble pitta so such food items should be reduced,
instead starchy foods such as vegetables, grains and beans, salad, milk and ice cream
should be included in the diet.
Alcoholic and fermented foods should also be avoided. Pitta person should not take coffee
also as the acid in the coffee is also pitta aggravating, instead they can have herb teas like
mint, licorice root or other that pacify pitta.
If your basic constitution is mixed like pitta-vata or pitta-kapha, then you should include
portion for the second influential dosha.
