Dr. Bajrang Ramawat*, Dr. Varsha Jangid and Dr. Renu Swami

Abstract

Changing lifestyle along with changing food culture has given birth to various diseases. Amlapitta is one of the most common diseases seen in society today. Ama or undigested food molecules which are generated from Ajirna & Annavisha, are absorbed and deposited in different organs of the body & thus produces the metabolic diseases like Amlapitta. Acharya Kashypa has first described it as a disease. Apathyakar ahar and vihar are also responsible for causing Amalapitta as a disease. As we all know the food, we consume nourishes our body but the food itself if not taken proper quantity, Proper place and Appropriate time are responsible for causing diseases. The alimentary system is the primary source of nutrition provider of the body and thus plays an important contribution for health and disease. Till now, modern medical science has not invented any permanent curative medicine for this disease. But unfortunately there is no any successful treatment available in modern science.The mode of operation of Kunjala is directly concerned with the digestive system by purifying the stomach and cleans the entire body Similarly, Shodhan/Kunjal of our body and following food taking rules is important for remaining healthy and for the prevention of a lot of diseases.
