RASAYANA TREATMENT IN AYURVEDA: ENHANCING HUMAN HEALTH THROUGH HOLISTIC APPROACHES AND IMMUNOMODULATION"
Dr. Nikesh Gajanan Mante and Dr. Nitesh R. Joshi
ABSTRACT
Rasayana, Vajikarana, Pathya-Apathya Aahara-Vihara, Ritucharya, and Sadvritta are all significant figures in Ayureveda. Many diseases in today's modern world lack a precise treatment according to current scientific understanding. The majority of individuals who recover from one illness relapse with the same illness or another. It is said that Ayurveda slows down the ageing process and boosts the body's resistance to illness. Rasayanas can help the body fend off the effects of ageing by strengthening its defences against infections through non-specific activation of immunity, according to scientific studies on plants and Ayurvedic remedies. Antioxidants found in several Rasayana plants shield the body from harm caused by free radicals. According to Ayurveda, Rasayanas achieve a holistic approach to human health care by balancing all of the body’s physical, mental, and spiritual activities. They are also the best at promoting the growth and correct sustenance of all seven tissues (Dhatus). It denotes the significance of this particular branch of Ashtanga Ayurveda in treatment. Ayurveda's goals are to treat the Aatura (diseased person) and maintain Swasthya (health). Rasayana's practical application at both levels aids in achieving the goal. The Ayurvedic book describes a certain Aahar Vihar and Rasayana Chikitsa to sustain overall wellness. Rasayan chikitsa is described in Ayurveda as a way to prevent ageing and strengthen immunity (Vyadhishamaatva bala). Rasayana Chikitsa is also utilised for the disease's prophylactic, curative, and promotional elements.
