लीढं निर्वापयेत् पित्तमल्पत्वाद्धन्ति नानलम् । आक्रामत्यनिलं पीतमूष्माणं निरुणद्धि च ॥ १११ ॥

Ghee that is licked, being smaller in quantity, successfully pacifies and mitigates Pitta without diminishing or extinguishing the digestive fire (Agni). On the other hand, when ghee is drunk in larger quantities, it directly envelops and subdues Vata while checking and containing the hyper-functioning internal heat or digestive fire .
