This chapter is related with the tastes of food substance and its importance in diet related to health. [[Dosha]] and rasa are the prominent factors for the assessment of diseases and drugs respectively. There are six [[rasa]]s - madhura (sweet), amla (sour), lavana (saline), katu (pungent), tikta (bitter), and kashaya (astringent). These have pacifying and provoking effect on physiological status of [[dosha]] in body.

Their proper use in accordance with the body constitution maintains health, otherwise they vitiate the [[dosha]] (increase or decrease) which leads to various disorders in the body. This interaction of [[rasa]] and [[dosha]] is described in details. Eight specific factors of dieting and twelve guidelines about eating food have been described in this chapter, which are of immense value for those seeking a healthy and long life.
