Santarpanajanya Vikara and Its Treatment through Ayurveda: A Literary View

Abstract

Ayurveda is the science which touches every aspect of life since the beginning of civilization. It has innumerable ways, to make the life more beautiful and glorious, which were evolved through the various symposia conducted in the past, time immemorable. Its main aim to provide a life of extreme happiness to the both of the diseased and the healthier one. Basing on these concept one of the most appreciated concept is the Santarpanajanyavikara Chikitsa (i.e. the diseases due to over nutrition and its treatment). These types of disorders arise generally due to avoidance of the principles of intake of food as described by Maharishi Charaka (Ashtavidh-Ahara-vidhivishesayatana & Dashavidha Ahara niyama) and Maharishi Sushruta (Dwadashashana vichara). Mostly those disorders which are evolved due to the excess intake of Atisnigdha, Atiguru and Atimadhura rasa etc. are taken in to account here. These are Prameha, Pidaka, Kandu, Kushtha etc. These may be correlated with the different life style disorders which arise due to intake of Junk foods and other unwholesome foods which are specially having high calories, now a day. In order to treat it, Maharshi Charaka had implemented various treatment principles like Ullekhana, Virechana, Raktamokshana, Vyayama, Upavasa, Dhumapana, Swedana etc. By occupying these methods the physician can successfully treat the diseases which arise due to above causes, to achieve his goal as to “Dhatusamya karana”.
