24.22

sthūlaṃ koṭaravadvṛddhau dahato 'gnyanilau ca tam |

svedavāhisirāmūlabhāvādviṣyandanādapi |

medasaḥ śleṣmayogācca bhavati svedabhūritā ||

tailāḍhakaṃ samakṣīraṃ pacet kalkaiḥ palonmitaiḥ ||

jīrṇe ghṛte jāṅgalarasena talopasekaṃ bhojayet |

snigdhaṃ ca kaphapratiśyāyavadupācaret ||

And in its increase, the digestive fire and wind burn that corpulent person like a hollow tree.
Because it is the origin of sweat-carrying vessels, and because of exudation
of fat, and due to association with śleṣman, profuse sweating occurs.
One should cook an āḍhaka of oil with equal milk along with one-pala amounts of the pastes:
When the ghee is digested, one should feed [him] with wild meat juice poured over [the food],
and one should treat the unctuous patient as in kapha catarrh.
