Concept of Asthi Dhatu w.s.r. to Sharirkriya - A Review Article
Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Asthi, one amongst the seven dhatus, is blessed with the function of sharira dharana, providing shape to the body and protecting the vital organs. The state of equilibrium of dhatus is health and its disturbance is termed as disease. This disequilibrium may either be vriddhi (increase-qualitative or quantitative) or kshaya (decrease-qualitative or quantitative). Understanding dhatu is important to understand the underlying pathology of disease. We find many people today suffering from bone disorders which has hampered their living. It is necessary to understand the normal Asthi dhatu to get the knowledge of its abnormality. A healthy Asthi dhatu leads to strong bones capable of carrying us though our lifetime.
