पित्तोपशमनीयानि पाक्यानि शिशिराणि च | कषायाण्युपयुक्तानि घ्नन्ति पित्तकृतां वमीम् ||२१||

sanskrit

Foods that are cooling, astringent, and prepared with ingredients that subdue Pitta are effective in treating vomiting caused by Pitta. These foods should be bitter, pungent, and capable of reducing the heat generated by Pitta, thus providing relief from the associated symptoms of vomiting. Such preparations help in balancing the aggravated Pitta dosha and can alleviate the discomfort caused by the excess of this dosha in the body.
