The maximum ingestion capacity of a person should be divided into three parts. One-third part of food intake should be consumed in solid form and one third part as liquid diet, remaining one third part of total capacity should be kept empty for movement of [[vata]], [[pitta]] and [[kapha]]. This is the indicator of satiety. This means once the two third part of stomach will be filled, a person will have the feeling of satisfaction [Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]]25/40]. At this point you should stop eating. If you will cross this limit the later food stuff will occupy the third part of stomach which interrupts the process of digestion, causing extra burden on digestive fire and may result indigestion. The divisions of aamashaya are not in equal proportion, but it is in accordance with user’s suitability and the adaptive pattern of food consumption [Cha.Sa.[[Vimana Sthana]]2/3-Chakrapani]. Power of ingestion (abhyavaharan-shakti) is different for every individual and it depend upon the strength of digestive fire (jatharagni).  The proper quantity of food (aahara matra) to be consumed is subjected to power of ingestion and consistency of food articles i.e. solid and liquid.

Depending on the consistency, the food articles are classified into four categories: drinkable, likable, eatable, and chew-able. These four types are further abbreviated under two classes as liquid foods and solid foods respectively. Thus both type of food shall be consumed till half of it satiety or till feeling of satiety. This quantity will definitely be digested in due time, without disturbing doshas' physiology ([[prakriti]]), thus indicating aahara matra. Subjective parameters shall be observed carefully to decide the proper quantity of food [Cha. Sa.[[Vimana Sthana]] 2/6]. Food consumed in the appropriate quantity enhances strength, complexion, and nourishment of tissues.
