Abstract

A polluted environment, an irregular routine, and a harmful and improper diet, such as excessive consumption of rich food, cold drinks, tea, coffee, excessive drug consumption, diwaswapna, Ratrijagran, and the pleasure of lust, have significantly reduced the physical and mental abilities of persons. As a result, different diseases are present in the body and mind. In the current era, Amlapitta is a severe health problem affecting people worldwide. Ayurveda is the complete medical system comprising physical, mental and spiritual health prevention and preservation of health. And Aahar is one of the essential pillars of Ayurveda for preventing and managing the disease. In the present scenario, many changes have occurred in the traditional lifestyle of a person, and changes have also come in the diet of a person. This results in more digestive disorders like Grahaniroga, Udarroga, Arsha, Atisara, Pandu, Chhardi and Amlapitta. When such a person eats unfavourable and antagonistic food, his pitta becomes Vidagdha; that Vidagdha pitta is called Amlapitta. Amlapitta is a common functional disease of Annavaha srotas. Materialistic lifestyle provokes people to run behind a busy, stressful life with the most minor concern towards proper food habits. According to Kashyap, Virudhaahar, Adhyasana, Amabhojna, Ajeernabhojana, Guru, Snigdha bhojana, Atiruksha anna and Vegadharana, and Divaswapna etc. causes Agnimandhya that leads Amlapitta. According to Madhavakara, increased pitta is an aggravating factor responsible for Amlapitta diseases. When people consume a proper diet according to Prakriti and do not get attracted toward food, do good exercise and adequate sleep and rest, and practice Yoga, Pranayama, and meditation, the disease of a restrained and gentle person gets cured.
