Clinical Success of Kalyana Kshara Bhasma Orally as a Bheshaja Chikitsa one among Chaturavidha Sadhana Upaya in Arshas - A Case Report
type: item
description: Hemorrhoids are clinically an engorged condition of the haemorrhoidal venous plexus, along with an abnormally enlarged, displaced anal cushion. WHO has declared 20th November of each year as “World Piles Day”, which indicates the infiltration of this disease all over the world and the tremendous physical and mental sufferings of mankind as a result of this disease. In the present study, treatment is given by the Bheshaja chikitsa to the Arshas. The probable mode of Bheshaja chikitsa is by achieving appropriate Samprapti vighatana and preventing the recurrence of Arshas. Bheshaja chikitsa has been widely used for Arshas having Alpa dosha, Alpa linga, and Alpa upadrava. It is OPD level Management which is quick, Painless, and free from any major complications. The principle of this theory is achieving the optimum by oral administration of Kalyana Kshara Bhasma in hemorrhoids. This study may help to halt the further pathological process of Arshas (Internal hemorrhoids) and can help those patients who are not willing or unfit for surgery or other parasurgical procedures.

Successful Management of Hyperbilirubinemia with Snehapana and Virechana: A Case Report
type: item
description: Background: Hyperbilirubinemia reflects impaired bilirubin metabolism, usually due to hepatic dysfunction or bile flow obstruction. Ayurveda considers such conditions to be Pitta-dominant disorders affecting Yakrit and Ranjaka Pitta. Classical Panchakarma therapies such as Snehapana and Virechana are indicated for detoxification and Pitta elimination. Case: A 35-year-old male presented with mild jaundice, fatigue, dark-coloured urine, and a history of asthmatic bronchitis. Laboratory evaluation revealed elevated total (2.5 mg/dL), direct (1.2 mg/dL), and indirect (1.3 mg/dL) bilirubin levels. The patient underwent Snehapana with Indukanta Ghrita followed by Virechana with Trivrit Avaleha. Intervention and Outcome: Samyak Snehana signs were achieved on the fourth day. Virechana produced Madhyama Shuddhi with 13 Vegas. Post-therapy bilirubin values returned to normal limits (total 0.3 mg/dL, direct 0.1 mg/dL, indirect 0.2 mg/dL). The patient reported significant improvement in jaundice, breathing difficulty, and fatigue. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the potential efficacy of Ayurvedic Panchakarma -specifically Snehapana and Virechana-in managing hyper-bilirubinemia and improving liver function. Further controlled studies are warranted.

Ayurvedic Insights into Agni and GI System
type: item
description: The concept of the gastrointestinal (GI) system has been extensively discussed in classical Ayurvedic literature. Ancient texts such as the Atreya Samhita, as cited in Vaidyaka-Shabda Sindhu, provide detailed and systematic anatomical and physiological descriptions of the gastrointestinal tract. In Ayurveda, various terminologies such as Mahasrotas, Annavaha Srotas, and Kostha are employed to describe different dimensions of the GI system. Among them, the Annavaha Srotas refers specifically to the channels involved in the transportation and transformation of consumed food. These Srotasas not only serve as physical pathways but also represent the functional systems involved in digestion, absorption, and the formation of Rasa Dhatu, the primary nourishing fluid of the body. According to Sushruta, the Amashaya (stomach) is a critical component of the GI tract, while Charaka extends this understanding by including both the stomach and small intestine. The Annavaha Srotas encompasses the organs and processes related to both mechanical and enzymatic digestion, beginning in the oral cavity and continuing through the stomach and small intestine. It also plays a crucial role in nutrient absorption, leading to the formation of Rasa Dhatu, the first of the seven Dhatus (bodily tissues). Central to this process are components such as Agni (digestive fire), Pitta, and Grahani, all of which collectively regulate proper digestion and metabolism. This article aims to explore the Ayurvedic view of the GI system by analyzing the role of Annavaha Srotas and the physiological concept of Agni in the transformation and assimilation of food.

Correlation Between Awasthapaka and Metabolism: An Ayurvedic and Modern Perspective
type: item
description: This review article comprehensively explores the intricate correlation between Awasthapaka, the Ayurvedic concept of digestive stages, and the broader physiological processes of metabolism. Rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts, Awasthapaka describes the sequential transformation of ingested food (Ahara) through three distinct phases: Madhura, Amla, and Katu. These stages are intrinsically linked to the dynamic interplay of Agni (digestive fire), which encompasses Jatharagni (gastrointestinal digestion), Bhutagni (elemental metabolism), and Dhatvagni (tissue-level metabolism). The report delineates the physiological mechanisms of each Awasthapaka stage, correlating them with modern scientific understanding of carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism.

Bridging the Gap: A Review of Ayurvedic Principles and Therapies for Integration into Contemporary Wound Care
type: item
description: particularly in the face of rising antimicrobial resistance. While modern wound care employs evidence-based strategies such as debridement, infection control, and advanced dressings, challenges persist-especially in resource-limited settings. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, offers a time-tested, holistic approach to wound management (“Vrana Chikitsa”), emphasizing individualized care and natural remedies. This review examines the potential for integrating Ayurvedic wound healing practices with contemporary medical approaches. Ayurvedic herbal formulations like honey, ghee, turmeric, Triphala, neem, and guggul exhibit scientifically validated antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and regenerative properties. Conceptual overlaps-such as between “Dushta Vrana” and chronic wounds-demonstrate a shared understanding of pathophysiology and the importance of systemic factors in healing. Although challenges remain, including standardization, regulatory acceptance, and the need for robust clinical trials, integration offers promising opportunities. These include low-cost, accessible care, reduced dependence on antibiotics, and personalized treatment through Ayurveda’s Prakriti-based approach. A collaborative, evidence-driven model combining both systems can lead to more effective, holistic, and sustainable wound care solutions.

Clinical Evaluation of an Herbal-Probiotic Nutraceutical Supplement in Improving Symptoms of Yakrut Vikaara, Kaamala, and Pleeha Roha: A Pilot Clinical Study
type: item
description: The liver, as the body’s primary detoxification organ, is highly vulnerable to toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides, industrial chemicals, and alcohol. These substances can cause oxidative stress, inflammation, and liver cell damage, potentially leading to fatty liver disease like the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), cirrhosis, or liver cancer. Environmental pollutants from air and water further contribute to liver dysfunction by overwhelming detoxification pathways and promoting chronic metabolic disturbances. Herbal and probiotic-based nutraceuticals have shown promise in supporting detoxification and improving digestive health. This pilot study evaluated the safety and efficacy of a novel nutraceutical supplement formulated with six herbs and a probiotic in patients with liver disorders, hepatitis, and spleen-related disorders exceeding 30% of the population in Salem city, India. Methods: In a Phase I, single-centre, open-label clinical trial, 10 patients (40% female, 60% male) diagnosed with liver and spleen disorders presenting symptoms including excessive tiredness, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, nausea, abdominal pain, fatigue, and bloating were administered the supplement. Symptom improvement was assessed over the study period. Results: The nutraceutical demonstrated a high level of tolerability among participants, with no significant adverse effects reported. Notably, 80% of the patients experienced noticeable improvements across a broad range of symptoms. These positive outcomes suggest that the product may offer beneficial effects in several key areas, including the body’s natural detoxification processes, digestive function, and the maintenance of overall health and well-being. These findings highlight the potential of the nutraceutical as a supportive supplement for individuals seeking to enhance their physiological balance and general vitality. Conclusion: This pilot study suggests that the six-herb probiotic nutrace…

A Clinical Study of Kanchanara Patra Phanta in Management of Hypothyroidism
type: item
description: Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder. Primary Hypothyroidism is up to 8–9 times more common in women than in men, and the prevalence increases with age, with a peak incidence between the ages of 30 and 50 years. According to Ayurveda, this disease is termed as Galaganda. Acharya Sushrutha opines that a swelling in the neck, big or small hanging-like scrotum is defined as Galaganda; this disease, is characterized by vitiation of Agni along with Kapha and Vata dosha. Various Shodhana and Shamana chikitsa have been mentioned for Galaganda. Kanchanara (Bauhinia purpurea Linn) is one such drug mentioned for the treatment of Galaganda by Acharya Bhavaprakasha. As there is an ambiguity about effective and successful treatment for Hypothyroidism due to its varying signs and symptoms, it necessitates finding an effective formulation for treating Galaganda (Hypothyroidism). Aim: To assess the efficacy of Kanchanara patra phanta in Hypothyroidism. Materials and methods: This study was a randomized, open labeled, non-controlled, interventional clinical trial with before and after evaluation of data in a single group. A single group of 30 study samples was recruited based on the assessment criteria and study was conducted for a total of 30 days period; Assessment of the condition was done with regular follow-ups of day 1, 15 and 30. Conclusion: 30 days (twice daily) of internal administration of Kanchanara patra phanta showed highly significant efficacy in pacifying the symptoms and reducing the levels of TSH.

Role of Malavrodh in Gut Health: An Ayurvedic Perspective
type: item
description: Malavrodh, an Ayurvedic term for the obstruction of bodily waste elimination, plays a crucial role in gut health. In Ayurveda, the proper elimination of waste products or ‘Malas’ is vital for maintaining homeostasis and overall well-being. Malavrodh particularly involving the digestive system, can lead to significant health issues, emphasizing the need for understanding its impact on gut health. Ayurveda identifies 3 primary wastes: feces (Purisha), urine (Mutra), sweat (Sweda). Proper excretion of these wastes is essential for the body's balance. Malavrodh in the gastrointestinal tract primarily involves the obstruction of feces leading to conditions such as constipation and incomplete evacuation. Factors contributing to Malavrodh include dietary imbalances, lack of physical activity, stress, and disturbances in the Doshas (Vata, Pitta and Kapha). Malavrodh has a direct and profound impact on gut health. Chronic constipation and incomplete bowel movements can result in the accumulation of toxins (Ama) in the digestive tract. Symptoms of gut-related Malavrodh include infrequent bowel movements, hard stools, straining during defecation, and a sense of incomplete evacuation. These symptoms not only cause physical discomfort but also affect the individual's quality of life and overall health. In Ayurveda, diagnosing Malavrodh involves evaluating the patient's dietary habits, lifestyle, stress levels Dosha imbalances. Treatment focuses on restoring proper bowel movements through dietary modifications, herbal remedies, lifestyle changes, and detoxification procedures such as Panchakarma. Common Ayurvedic treatments include the use of Triphala, a combination of 3 fruits known for their laxative properties and lifestyle practices such as regular physical activity and stress management techniques. Malavrodh significantly affects gut health by disrupting normal waste elimination and leading to the accumulation of toxins in the digestive tract. Understanding and addressing Ma…

Exploring the Efficacy of Nasya Therapy in the Management of Nidranash (Insomnia): An Ayurvedic Perspective
type: item
description: This study explores the efficacy of Nasya therapy in the management of Nidranash (insomnia) from an Ayurvedic perspective. Insomnia, a prevalent sleep disorder, significantly impacts the quality of life and overall health. Conventional treatments often involve pharmacological interventions that can lead to dependency and adverse effects. Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine, offers alternative approaches, with Nasya therapy being one of the prominent treatments for Nidranash. Nasya involves the administration of herbal oils or medicinal substances through the nasal passages, targeting the central nervous system and promoting relaxation and sleep. This paper reviews the principles of Nasya therapy, the herbal formulations used, and the underlying mechanisms contributing to its effectiveness. Clinical evidence and case studies are examined to assess the outcomes and benefits of Nasya in treating insomnia. The findings suggest that Nasya therapy, with its holistic approach and minimal side effects, presents a viable and effective treatment for insomnia, aligning with the Ayurvedic philosophy of restoring balance and harmony within the body. Further research and clinical trials are recommended to substantiate these findings and integrate Nasya therapy into mainstream insomnia management protocols.

Standardization of Herbal Drugs: Vacha (Acorus Calamus Linn.) and Dvipantara Vacha/Chopchini/China Root (Smilax China Linn.) with their In-Vitro Antimicrobial Potential
type: item
description: Ayurveda is a part of the "science of life," which is the study of traditional medicinal plants that are used and found worldwide to treat and prevent various illnesses. There is increasing awareness and general acceptability of the use of herbal drugs in today’s modern practice. Around 80% of the world's population relies on herbal treatments and products for health, despite their unconventional uses. This growth in the usage; abuse and adulteration of herbal products has also resulted in consumers and manufacturers being disappointed, and in extreme cases, the repercussions are lethal. Standardization of herbal medicines is the process to ensure the efficacy and safety of medicinal plants. Vacha (Acorus calamus Linn.) and Dvipantara vacha/ Chopchini/ China root (Smilax china Linn.) are among the four varieties of Bhavaprakash Nighantu. Both drugs are used in disorders like epilepsy. Plants contain a huge diversity of chemical compounds known as secondary metabolites. This study investigates the phytochemicals and in-vitro antimicrobial potential of Vacha and Dvipantara vacha; particularly focusing on their antibacterial and antifungal activities against specified bacteria and fungi namely Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans.

Evaluation of Anti-Ulcer Activity of Godhuma Yusha Against Experimentally Induced Ulcers in Rats
type: item
description: Present study was an animal experimental study involving albino rats on whom peptic ulcer was induced and treated the same with the Godhuma Yusha or the wheat decoction to evaluate its role on the anti-ulcer activity. The plant material used for the study such as wheat grains were collected from the local farmers, shade dried and made into granules or powdered coarsely. Aqueous extract or the Godhuma Yusa was prepared by decoction method by adding the coarse powder of 100ml of drinking water and was boiled for 15 minutes. After cooling the supernatant was used to study the anti-ulcer activity. Healthy albino rats of wistar strain of either sex about 180–200mg used for the study were purchased and were caged individually and kept in air-conditioned room. Throughout the study, animals were maintained at normal laboratory conditions, at standard rat pellet diet, drinking water and libitum. Animals were being divided into four groups, consisting of six animals each. Control group (group – I) received 1% CMC (5ml/kg), positive control group (group– II) received 1% CMC (5ml/kg), test drug– 1 (group– III) received herbal suspension (5ml/kg), Test drug – 2 (group – IV) received herbal suspension in 1% CMC (5ml/kg). Total ulcer score, mean ulcer score, ulcer index, ulcer incidence were assessed before and after the intervention. The results were analysed statistically using student’s ‘t’ test and Mann whitney test. The present study showed that the test drug (Godhuma Yusha or the wheat decoction) has significant anti-ulcer activity as evidenced by bio-chemical parameters.

Smart Spectrophotometric Methods for the Determination of Chlorzoxazone and Paracetamol Form Tablets
type: item
description: Two simple, accurate and precise spectrophotometric methods have been introduced for the simultaneous measurement of chlorzoxazone and paracetamol in a combined tablet form. The first method is a graphical spectrophotometric method utilizes the data taken at multiple wavelengths to generate linear plots, from which the concentration of analytes can be determined, the second method is dual wavelength spectrophotometric method which is based on selecting two wavelengths for each drug to ensure that the absorbance difference is zero for the other drug. In the graphical method the absorbance was measured at 240, 260, 280 and 300 nm, while in the dual wavelength method; 224.5 nm and 264 nm were chosen for chlorzoxazone determination since paracetamol shows equal absorbance at these wavelengths. Conversely, for paracetamol determination, wavelengths 234.5 nm and 273.5 nm were selected, with chlorzoxazone having zero absorbance difference at these wavelengths. Both drugs adhere to Beer-Lambert’s law within a concentration range of 4–20 µg/mL. The methods accuracy and precision were assessed following the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. Recovery studies further validated the method's accuracy. The precision of the method was demonstrated by low relative standard deviations (% RSD) less than 2%, indicating good repeatability and intermediate precision. Method accuracy was confirmed by the agreement between the determined and actual contents, also with % RSD less than 2%. The two methods enable direct analysis of chlorzoxazone and paracetamol in commercially available tablet formulations without the need for prior separation.

Evaluation of Male Reproductive Component in Ayurveda with its Applied Aspect
type: item
description: The reproductive system of the male includes penis, testes, epididymis, vas deferens, ejaculatory ducts, and accessory glandular structures like seminal vesicles, prostate, bulbo-urethral gland, and scrotum. In Ayurveda above components are highlighted with the following words Vrishana, Muska, Sukra vaha srotas, Sukra dhara kala, etc. Even for a single structure various terminologies are mentioned in classics. For example concerning penis, Medhra, Mehana, Upastha, Sepha, Dhwaja, Pausendriya and Linga are mentioned. All the structures are studied according to their contexts and interpreted accordingly with the most relevant components of the male reproductive system. They are differentiated from one another to establish the morphophysiological aspects. Morphological description measuring 10 Angula found for Medhra and 6 Angula for Sepha which represent length of the urethra and penis respectively. “Vrishanayo ando” here it is oval in shape specifically highlighting the shape of testis. Virya vahi sira can be understood with the histological aspects such as seminiferous tubules, reti testis and epididymis. Sukradhara kala is the epithelial lining of entire structures. Vas deferens can be understood with Muska Srota, Phala srota, Sukra vahini, Sukra vaha and Sukra vaha srotas. Seminal vesicle which contains 65-70% of seminal fluid can be taken as Sukrasaya. The present work emphasizing male reproductive components in Ayurveda with different structures are evaluated in different context some time highlighting the morphological, functional, histological, and applied aspects.

EFFECT OF VARIOUS EXTRACTS FROM FICUS RETUSA L. STEM BARK ON WOUND HEALING POTENTIAL
type: item
description: A wound is defined as a disruption in the physiological continuity and structural integrity of a living tissue. It can be caused by physical, chemical, thermal, microbiological, or immunological damage to the tissue. Plants have enormous potential for wound surveillance and care. In many nations, ancient and traditional medicine employs a wide range of herbs to heal wounds. These common agents promote healing and regeneration of the damaged tissue in a variety of ways. The acetone and ethanolic extracts of Ficus retusa stem bark have been taken to evaluate the wound healing potential in excision and incision wound models. The parameters studied include the rate of wound contraction, period of complete epithelialization of the excision model, and tensile strength of the incision wound. A one-way ANOVA test was used to analyze the results obtained from the present study and p<0.05 was considered significant. Both acetone and ethanolic extracts of F. retusa were found to possess significant wound-healing activity, which was evidenced by a decrease in the period of epithelialization, an increase in the rate of wound contraction, and skin-breaking strength. The present study has demonstrated that the acetone and ethanolic extracts of F. retusa have properties that render them capable of promoting accelerated wound-healing activity compared with standard drug and normal control.

type: item
description: District Ayurveda Health Center, located in Sinamangal, deals with different branches such as Stri Prasuti, Kayachikitsa, Panchakarma, Physiotherapy, Acupuncture, and Acupressure. The majority of the patients who visited DAHC were females. In this retrospective analysis, Gynec patients who underwent treatment from Shrawan 2079 to Ashad 2080 were studied. Objective: The major objective of this study was to determine the treated disease pattern and the frequency of gynec patients who benefited from treatments and services provided in the OPD of DAHC. Material and methods: The study was analytically retrospective in nature, where an analysis of registered patient case records of Stri roga and Prasuti roga from the OPD of DAHC during the period 079-080 B.S. was conducted. Result: Despite a good number of patients visiting the OPD of DAHC and patients with different gynecological diseases being treated with Ayurvedic medications, Sthanika chikitsa (local in situ procedures), Beejasanskara (pre-conceptional care), Garbhasansakara (antenatal care), and Sutika (post-natal care), there is a lack of good publicity and awareness in the general population about the wide range of treatments available for various diseases at DAHC. The follow-up cases were also good. Conclusion: The study showed that DAHC provided services for various gynecological diseases, Sthanika chikitsa (local in situ procedures), Beejasanskara (pre-conceptional care), Garbhasansakara (antenatal care), and Sutika (post-natal care) facilities, benefiting females. Hence, improving the services and conducting awareness programs can provide better Ayurvedic health services to many needy people at the district level.

Analysis of Prakriti in Ayurvedic Classical Texts
type: item
description: Prakriti is an integral part of Ayurveda, which is an eternal science based on absolute principles. It is essential for the selection and formation of all factors for which a person will interact from conception to death, such as lifestyle, diet, etc. It represents the character of the body in relation to the Dosha and is determined at the moment of conception based on the predominant Dosha. This character does not change throughout a person's lifetime and is responsible for their physical and mental attributes. Tridosha says there are seven types of Prakriti. People with certain Prakriti have different bodies in terms of how they work, how they act, how they react to things in their environment, how likely they are to get diseases, and so on. Prakriti identifies how an individual reacts to environmental conditions, lifestyle changes, and drugs, and how susceptible they are to different diseases. It's one of the first ideas in preventive and personalized (or genomic) medicine. To figure out how susceptible an individual is to different diseases, what drugs to use, how much to take, how the drug reacts to the body, how the disease will progress, and how to prevent it, first Prakriti is done, then Vikriti is done. Prakriti focuses on uniqueness and plays a big role in preventing and curing diseases, as well as keeping you healthy throughout your life. Analysis of the concept of Prakriti is made to find out through this paper.

Study of Trataka Yoga Kriya on Health in Trisutra Ayurveda
type: item
description: We have come a long way in almost every field of life. Things that were once thought to be impossible for us are now possible for us. Scientists and researchers have changed the way we live. But pollution of air and water, body and mind are also a result of science. With the progress of civilization, mankind is getting weaker every day. Industrialization, diet, exercise, and the nature of work sitting for hours in front of the computer, always in the car, and lack of exercise have led to many diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, etc. Routine health issues like constipation, stomach issues, gas, eye burning, sinus issues, headaches, and so on, need to be treated in a way that works for them. You can't just take medicines for these things every day. You need to give your body some physical training to show it how effective it is. This is done through the practice of something called 'Shatkarma', which can bring good results if you do it forever. It's all about body cleansing, and the six purification techniques are really important for both physical and mental health. These simple techniques are also really useful for treating internal disorders, which is what this paper is all about.
