Abstract

Balatisara i.e. Diarrhea in children is one of the common disease among developing countries and second common cause of death in children. According to WHO diarrhea was estimated to have caused 1.1 million deaths in people of age 5 yrs or more and 1.5 million deaths under the age of 5 years. Nowadays by the use of advanced medical techniques as fluid replacement therapy mortality rate might have been declined but incidence of Diarrhea remains unchanged at about 3.2 episodes per child per year. In Balatisara mainly Annavaha Strotas and Purishvaha Strotas Dushti is involved. The major complication of Balatisara is Dehydration and Malnutrition. With the help of ayurveda we can effectively treat acute as well as chronic cases of Balatisara.
