Erläuterung
Sattvic people prefer foods that increase life, vitality, strength, health, happiness and contentment. Such foods are flavourful, smooth or rich, sustaining and pleasant to the heart. The description is about effect as much as taste: good food supports both body and mind. Many readers have taken this verse as guidance for a wholesome diet, though the Gita gives no fixed menu. The emphasis is on nourishment that brings lasting wellbeing rather than momentary excitement.
