24.45

kṛśaṃ prāyaśca dhāvanti raktapittānilāmayāḥ |

kārśyameva varaṃ sthaulyānna hi sthūlasya bheṣajam |

bṛṃhaṇaṃ laṅghanaṃ nālamatimedo 'gnivātajit ||

leho vā bhārgavastadvadekādaśasitāśataḥ ||

Disorders of raktapitta and vāta mostly run after an emaciated person; / emaciation is indeed better than obesity, for there is no remedy for the obese; / nourishing therapy is not adequate [because of obesity], nor fasting because it overcomes excess fat, fire, and vāta; / or an electuary of Bhārgava, likewise made with one thousand one hundred [palas] of sugar.
