ABSTRACT
The main reason of all diseases is Mandangni (low appetite) according to Ayurveda. Therefore before starting any Shodhan Chikitsa (purification of body), Aam pachan and Agni deepan (increase appetite) is key process. Prakrut agni (good digestion) directly releted with sound health. In Bhasmak roga, vitiated Vaayu vitiates excessive Pitta. Due to excessive Pitta and its Ushna guna, Jatharagni (digestive capacity) increases. Due to Teekshna guna of Jatharagni the food gets easily digested in less time duration. If patient don’t take food after early digestion of previous Ahara (food), it metabolise other Deh dhatus (building blocks of our body) such as Rakta, Mansa, etc. Due to metabolization of Deh dhatus, catabolic process starts in body. Therefore body becomes weak and prone to illnesses. In endocrinology, thyroxine harmone plays an important role in metabolism. Due to increase in level of thyroid harmone hyperthyroidism develop. Which lead to excess thirst, heat intolerance, excess sweating increase appetite and loss of weight. These all sign and symptoms are closely releted with vitiated Vaat Pitta Vruddhi in our body. In day to day practice we see no of cases of hyperthyroidism. And its symptoms are quite similar to that of Bhasmaka.
