ABSTRACT
Ayurveda is an ancient medical science. In our ancient Samhitas the Tridosha, SaptaDhatu and Trimala concepts are described in detail. It is also mentioned that the Pitta is the Mala of RaktaDhatu and Yakrut and Pliha are mentioned as mulasthanas of Raktavaha Strotas. There is no existence of body without Vata, Pitta, Kapha and Rakta. Therefore Rakta is considered as fourth Dosha. So it is important to know the concept of Raktadhatu in Ayurveda.
Keywords: Rakta, Dosha, Dhatu, Vyadhi.
