In my previous post, I shared that sweet, juicy fruits like melons 🍈, pears 🍐, and grapes 🍇 are excellent for balancing pitta in summer. What other foods can create balance? Generally, sweet, bitter, and astringent flavours work wonders to suppress pitta, while salty, sour, and strong flavours can stir it up.
Embrace the goodness of squash 🎃, cucumber 🥒, pumpkin 🎃, fennel, asparagus, artichokes, rice 🍚, olive oil 🫒, and ghee. Coconut 🥥 in all its forms is a powerful pitta suppressant, as is aloe vera. Milk 🥛 can also be a nourishing choice; just remember to enjoy it boiled and warm (but not hot), ideally with a pinch of cardamom. Avoid pairing milk with vegetables, meat, or fish for the best results.
This summer, savour these foods and remember to choose those that bring you joy! ✨
