Pitta dosha is formed by the combination of two elements Fire and Water. All the physiological processes with respect to energy production, metabolism and heat are controlled by Pitta Dosha. This means important functions such as digestion of food, production, and consumption of energy are governed by Pitta Dosha, which is a characteristic of the Pitta body type.

How is the Imbalanced Pitta Dosh Treated?

Pitta dosh is composed of fire and water elements. Their excess in the body leads to an imbalanced Pitta dosha. Therefore, this Pitta imbalance is treated by providing the person with all the conditions, be it the lifestyle, diet, medication, etc., that counter both these elements and bring Pitta dosha back to balance.
Pitta dosha is located in the small intestines, therefore, Virechan (purgation) treatment is the first step to start bringing Pitta dosh in balance. Moreover, the easy to digest food items tend to increase this problem, so on the contrary, heavy foods are considered during the therapy. In order to neutralise the effect of fire element, cold, liquid, fatty, and sweet foods are given.
Gradually, the problem of an imbalanced Pitta dosha is treated with continuous and expert observation.
