Why and how concept of life style disease
• Primitive concept of life style disease in ayurveda
can be attributed to graamya ahaar.
• Which is nothing but the change of life style into
other which is not congenial
• Our acharya’s experienced this when they shifted
from himalaya’s

Why multi dimentional approach?
• Rasayana is of different types kaamya, naimittika,
ajasrika, all have the utility in different aspects of life
style disease, kaamya-to get the desired effect on body.
Naimittika-to counter specific disease. Ajasrika to give
the daily nourishment with the usage of ghee, milk etc.
• Based on the mode of indication, kuti praveshika –to
rejuvenate the body by resorting a indoor stay with
consumption of rasayana drugs
• When we our self get expose to modern world with
the concept of rasayana, we equate it, in terms of
• Immune-modulator
• Anti-oxidants
• Adaptogenic
• Cytoprotective
• Prohost therapy
-And many others multiple properties
RASAYANA AS IMMUNOMODULATOR
o Activation of macrophages for enhanced
generation,
o Stimulation of cytotoxic activity and
Phagocytosis,
o Proliferation of lymphocytes leading to production
and also cytotoxic induction of T- helper &
natural killer (NK) cells and activation of
complement pathways.
.• To prove the hypothesis that Rasayana drugs may
have immunity promotion effects, DR.Gurdip
Singh (1982) carried out an experimental study
and showed that Vacha (Acorus columus),
Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) and
Mandukaparni (Hydrocotyle asiatica)
significantly increase the serum humeral antibodies
in rabbits. Out of these three drugs, the effect of
Mandukaparni (Hydrocotyle asiatica) was
considered better.
.• Encouraged from the results of the above
mentioned experimental study, further studies
were undertaken on human beings to evaluate the
immunity promotion effects of certain Rasayana
drugs
• Twenty-two patients of allergic rhinitis and
pharyngitis were studied in this series. They were
randomly divided into two groups.
.• The patients of first group were administered
powder of Ashwagandha in the dose of 6 gm twice
a day with ghee for a period of one month. The
patients of control group were kept on placebo for
one month.
• The results of this study showed that
Ashwagandha significantly (P<0.001) improving
the serum IgA, IgM and IgG in comparison to
control group. It also observed that the recurrences
of these diseases were preventing by the treatment
ranging from six months to one year.
.
RASAYANA AS ANTI OXIDANT
.
.•Antioxidant nutrients:
• These include beta carotene (precursor of Vit. A),
• Vitamin E ( - tocopherol)
• vitamin C (ascorbic acid),
• etc
.What is meant by Adaptogens?
The concept of 'Adaptogen' was coined in
1947 by a Russian Scientist, Lazarev. He defined
them as "substances meant to put the organism into a
state of non specific heightened resistance in order to
resist stresses and adapt to extraordinary challenges".
CONCLUSIONAfter taking you through the journey of evolution of
rasayana till date - In a multi dimentional
spectrum of approach, these are the few words of
conclusion-
• The Rasayana approach for each dis – ease must
be cause specific. i.e
• Cause being auto immune- rasayana is
immunomodulator.
• Free radicals as cause- anti oxidant.
• Adoptogenic cause (lifestyle)- adaptogens.

The goal of life is to die young …As late as possible!
