>*Mitahara* is a Sanskrit combination word, from *Mita* (moderate) and *Ahara* (taking food). In Yoga and other ancient texts, it represents a concept linking nutrition to the health of one's body and mind. It is considered a yamas (a series of "right living" or ethical rules within Yoga philosophy), where one refrains from either eating too much or too little of certain qualities of food. ("Mitahara", 2025).
