What the text says
Each statement reports the source, with its chapter, page and verse. Traditional descriptions are not presented as proven medical facts.
Definition1
Spring, also called madhu-ṛtu because flowers and fruits flourish then, is placed in Caitra and Vaiśākha; the editor's second scheme puts it in Phālguna and Caitra, and within each day the forenoon corresponds to spring.
How it develops1
Kapha accumulated in hemanta is said to be aggravated in spring; the editor places this aggravation in Phālguna–Caitra and the elimination of kapha (by emesis) in Caitra.
Regimen2
A footnote says kapha is aggravated in spring by the nature of the season, so emesis is given then.
In spring, mostly dry, alkaline (glossed as salty), astringent, bitter and pungent food and drink are said to be wholesome, and nasal therapy and emesis very beneficial.
