<big>'''Sutra Sthana Chapter 6. Seasonal Regimen or Qualitative Dietetics '''</big>
<big>'''Abstract'''</big>
<div style="text-align:justify;">This chapter describes seasonal regimen for preservation of health. The year (kala) is divided into seasons (ritu) based upon the changes in environmental conditions, changes in temperature, change in day-night cycle and circadian rhythm. Being an integral unit of the nature, these seasonal changes in nature affect human physiology too. Therefore, one must follow the specific regimen for maintaining the equilibrium of body components in harmony with nature. The seasonal regimen is designed on the basis of changes in the dosha, physical strength, and digestive power. This chapter continues the study of dietary regimen from the preceding chapters by adding the dimension of time and seasonal variations to it. </div>
