LIVER AND AYURVEDA: A COMPREHENSIVE LITERATURE REVIEW
Dr. Kishan Singh* and Dr. Nishant Patel
ABSTRACT
The liver, Ayurveda's "Yakrita," though mentioned sporadically, holds immense significance as the body's second-largest organ. Ayurvedic texts designate it as one of the 15 Koshtangas and the origin of the Rakta Vaha Srotas (blood channels). It serves as the site of Ranjak Pitta and is closely linked with Agni, the digestive fire. Integrating Ayurvedic principles with conventional medical interpretations offers a deeper understanding of liver disorders. By aligning Ayurveda's foundational concepts with modern medical insights, clinicians gain enhanced insight into disease pathology. This holistic approach fosters the development of more effective treatment strategies, optimizing patient care and outcomes. Synergizing Ayurveda with conventional medicine facilitates personalized interventions in liver disorders, improving overall healthcare delivery.
