Abstract

Immunity is a protective mechanism of the body; weak immunity may give rise to so many health conditions. The immunity of the person cannot be defined by personal appearance, as a lean body person may have stronger immunity compared to an obese person. The immunity depends upon proper nourishment of body tissues and lack of proper nourishment leads to a decrease in the person strength and lifespan. Sthoulya is one of the conditions where there is increased nourishment of only Medadhatu with lack of nourishment of other Rasadidhatu which further give rise to so many complications. Rasayana is one of the peculiar concepts of Ayurveda known for its Rejuvenation, Immunebooster, and antioxidant properties. As the name itself suggests it is the procedure with specific dravyas for the nourishment of Rasadidhatu. In Sthoulya as it is vruddi (Increased) of Shleshma, Vatadosha and Medadhatu with lack of nourishment of other dhatu occur so the use of Dravya having Rasayana, shleshmahara, Medohara and Vatagna properties are more beneficial. Keywords: Rasayana, Sthoulya, Shleshmahara, Medohara, Vatagna
