Stimulant foods

Stimulant foods, also called mutative foods, mutable foods or rajasic foods, are foods which often provoke mental restlessness. They are not completely beneficial, nor are they harmful, to body or mind. Foods that cannot be categorized as either sentient or static, are classified in this food group.

They help to create aggressive and dominating thoughts to emerge, especially towards others. Helps create a huge ego. As in, when someone wants to be the best in the clan and will keep everyone down to advance.

Stimulant foods energize and develop the manipura (navel) chakra and body but do not promote advancement in the higher chakras.

Such foods include: coffee, tea, cola drinks, chocolate, hot spices, salt.
