Pitta dosha is a combination of two elements namely fire and water.

To understand the pitta dosha easily just compare it with the fire outside the body.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0The fire outside is used for cooking the food. In the same way the pitta inside the body uses its heat to digest the food and make nurtients out of it. Therfore pitta is compared to Agni. However pitta is a stagnent energy it cannot move on its own and have to depend upon Vata to move it from one place to another.<\/p>\n

1. Pitta- Vriddhi : This means when pitta\u00a0 increases in its qualities.<\/p>\n
2. Pitta-Kshay :\u00a0 This means when pitta reduces from its normal state.<\/p>\n
\u00a0It is an energy that controls metabolic activities\u00a0 among all the three dosha , therefore if pitta aggravates\u00a0 because of above factors then body and mind faces lot of problem such as\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n
It will lead to digestive problems like acid reflux and jaundice\u00a0<\/li>\n

Stambha means heaviness in the body<\/li>\n
Angaparushya coarseness on the whole body<\/li>\n
Kampa means tremors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Pitta relation with Day<\/h2>\n
All the dosha in the body varies acording to the age, season, during 24 hours in a day.\u00a0 For pitta dosha\u00a0 it is predominant in the body at following time of the day.<\/p>\n
In Morning\u00a0 between 10 Am to 2 Pm<\/p>\n
In Night\u00a0 between\u00a0 10 Pm to 2 Am.<\/p>\n
So when there is pitta imblance in the body the symptoms of the diseases are seen more\u00a0 during this time .<\/p>\n
Pitta relation with Season<\/h2>\n
Pitta dosha tends to accumulate in the rainy season. It aggravates in the Atumn season ( Sharad ritu). This is the reason problems realted with pitta dosha like heartburn,acid reflux, skin rashes, headache, are seen in autumn season.<\/p>\n
So to prevent pitta\u00a0 problems in autumn season it is advised to take diet that helps to keep pitta in balance. Grishm ritucharya described in ayurveda should be adopted .<\/p>\n
Pitta dosha relation with Age<\/h2>\n
Pitta dosha get predominant as the age of person reaches its youth . The middle age is known as phase of pitta dosha. As the age progress the Agni ( digestive fire ) comes to its peak , this lead to healthy digestion and best absorption of nutrition . As a result there is healthy formation of Dhatus ( tissue). However if pitta increases too much during this phase it leads to many problems like pimples on face, hairloss, early greying of hair, anger and others.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So to prevent this problems ayurvedic practioners prefer using pitta balancing ayurvedic herbs and cooling food in the diet. External application of medicated oil is also good way to reduce excess pitta.. Along with this person should prefer diet and lifetstyle that helps in balancing pitta dosha.<\/p>\n
Pitta and Digestive fire<\/h2>\n
The Agni ( Digestive fire) is the essence of life and it is affected by the state of dosha in the body.<\/p>\n
When Agni is affected with pitta dosha then it become to sharp, that means the Agni will digest\u00a0 all the food\u00a0 whether it is light or heavy.\u00a0 This is known as Tikshna Agni. If it becomes too strong it will cause indigestion and heartburn.<\/p>\n
Those who have tikshagni tends to suffer from pitta type of indigestion which is known as Vidhagdh ajeerna.<\/p>\n
Pitta and Bowel movement<\/h2>\n
As\u00a0 said earlier grahni ( deuodinum) is the main seat of pitta and it controls all the other types from here.\u00a0 However when pitta aggravates in the grahani or in people who have excessive pitta then this bowel is known as Mrudu koshta. This means these people\u00a0 generally will have normal stool and no difficulty in passing stool.\u00a0 However if they feel like incomplete evacuation\u00a0 of bowel then even mild laxative work for them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Association of Pitta with Ama<\/h2>\n
Ama is by product of weak digestion. When the Agni ( digestive fire) is not able to digest the food properly then it fails to produce the ras ( nutrition) and\u00a0 as a result of this a\u00a0 by product\u00a0 is formed called as Ama. In Ayurveda this Ama is beleieved to be the root cause for diseases.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When the doshas get associated with Ama this stage is known as Sama awastha of dosha . When Pitta dosha is accociated with Ama it is known as Sama Pitta.<\/p>\n
Symptoms of Sama-Pitta<\/h2>\n
When pitta gets associated with Ama then\u00a0 following symptoms are seen<\/p>\n
\n
Heartburn<\/li>\n
Sour belching<\/li>\n
Pitta gets greenish colour<\/li>\n
Sluggish feeling<\/li>\n
Nausea and vommiting<\/li>\n
Burning type of pain<\/li>\n
Inflammation<\/li>\n
There is foul smell in pitta<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Conclusion<\/h2>\n
The pitta dosha is one of the dosha and is responsible for digestion, controlling metabolism\u00a0 and maintaining tempreture of the body. When in balanced state it brings healthy digestive system, creativity and happiness. However when it is imbalanced pitta leads to many diseases in the body. It has deep relation with digestive fire, different seasons and age of person. By keeping pitta in balance one can prevent many diseases and even delay the ageing process.<\/p>\n
