ABSTRACT
Ayurveda believes in theory of equilibrium of Dosha, Dhatu and Mala in the body. Strength of body depends on the excellent and fine quality status of Dhatu which is referred as Dhatusarata. In modern, Meda dhatu can be correlated as lipids and Adipose tissue. Hence, the present study is to establish the relation between the Medadhatu sarata and Lipid profile. For this study 60 individuals as per sign and symptoms Meda dhatu sarata selected which having criteria of inclusion and exclusion. Data from Lipid profile test reveals that 96.7%, 96.7 %, 100%, 98.3% and 100% respondents were found to desirable Sr. Cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C, Triglyceride and VLDL respectively. Other parameters like BMI, RBS, Sr. Creatinine, Hb%, fatigue index, Aayam and Vistara of body were also found as significant.
This study indicates that in Medadhatu sarata lipids which are present in the body gives nourishment to body and maintains health. Medadhatu sarata shows normal to high value of HDL (good cholesterol) comparatively low value of LDL (bad cholesterol) and Serum Cholesterol. HDL (high-density lipoproteins) carries cholesterol from other parts of the body back to the liver. Liver then removes the cholesterol from the body. LDL (low-density lipoproteins) leads to a buildup of cholesterol in arteries.
