After the manifestation of ''samyak nirudha'' symptoms, the patient should be advised to take bathe (in hot water) and to take meat-soup (''rasa''), milk and pulse-soup (''yusha'') in diseases due to the action of the deranged ''vata, pitta'' and ''kapha'' respectively. The essence (''rasa'') of the meat of any ''jangala'' animal may, however, be prescribed in all cases under the circumstances, since it would produce no harm. Only a quarter, a half or three-quarter part of the usual diet should be prescribed according to the digestive capacity of the patient, and the nature and intensity of the ''dosha'' involved in each case.21
