In the yogin’s body these (signs) arise; I shall state them without remainder: lightness of the body, radiance, and increase of the gastric fire. And leanness of the body then certainly arises. The best knower of yoga should avoid food that causes obstacles to yoga: salt, mustard, sour (foods), hot (pungent) items, dry items, and sharp/irritant (foods); leafy vegetables, (items like) rāmaṭha and the like; fire (i.e., excessive heat/exposure), intercourse/association with women, and travel on the road. One should also avoid bodily mortifications such as early-morning bathing and fasting. At the beginning of practice, milk and ghee are recommended as food. Wheat, mung-beans, and rice are known to promote the growth of yoga. Thereafter, as one wishes; one becomes capable of retention of the breath.
