Abstract
Conceptual study, study of Rasa dhatu and IHD was done. The observational study was carried out on 10 diagnosed IHD patients having age group between 50-70 years and of either sex. The Rasa kshaya Parikshana was done and observations were recorded. The observational study revels, 90 % patients shows Hritpida, 80 % patients shows symptom Klama (Fatigue), 70 % patients showed symptom Glani (Blacken outs), 70 % patients shows the symptom Shoonyata (feeling vacated) and 50 % patients shows the symptom Kampa (Trembling) at resting state. Due to vitiation of Rasa vaha strotas and Rasa dhatu (heart, blood vessels and blood), Rasa causes Sanga (obstruction) in Rasa vaha strotas, which leads into Rasa kshaya (impaired flow of rasa)? In Rasa kshaya Preenana karma (Providing nourishment) of Rasa dhatu gets reduced and symptoms of Rasa kshaya appear like 1) Chest pain (Hritpida) 2) Dryness (Rukshta) 3) Trembling (Kampa) 4) Feeling vacated (Shoonyata) 5) Thirst (Trushna) 6) Can’t bear loud sound (Shabdasahishnuta) 7) Blacken outs (Glani) 8) Palpitation (Ghattate?) 9) Tachycardia (Dravati?) 10) Tiredness on slight exertion (Tamyati?). According to modern science atherosclerotic coronary artery is main cause of IHD. IHD patients have Rasakshaya symptoms due to Sanga of Rasa dhatu in Rasavaha strotas.
