Abstract

Dr. Lokesh Singh Bhati*, Dr. Abhijeet B. Patil and Dr. P. D. Namewar

ABSTRACT

Dietary pattern of Indian people has been changing upto certain extent by the influence of western culture. Irregular and untimely eating habits along with certain variations of recipes can be included under the Viruddhaahar. Vagbhatacharya quotes that the effects of Viruddhahar consumption are likely that of Garavish. Amlapitta is one of the diseases arising from repeated consumption of Viruddhaahar i.e. Garavishajanit Amlapitta. In the previous clinical studies, very few were in relation to Garavisha as aetiological factors for clinical conditions. So a clinical study has been planned as a research work Regarding garavisha as a causative factor for a common disease i.e. amlapitta. Many formulations like amalaki churna etc were tested in amlapitta. But formulations indicated in amlapitta having vishnashan property were not studied in such hetu specific condition. The commonly used formulations in amlapitta having vishanashan property are i.e. Shankha Bhasma and Sootshekhar ras having vishanashan property. 30 diagnosed patients of Garavishajanit Amlapitta were subjected to clinical trials conducted at Bharati Vidyapeeth Medical Foundation’s Ayurved Hospital and Research Center, Pune. They were randomly allotted by lottery method in to Trial group T1 and Trial group T2 i.e. 15 patients each. IEC clearance was taken prior to commencement of study. T1 was administered the Sootshekhar Ras at Rasayan Kala whereas T2 received Shankha Bhasma at Vyanodan Kala daily for 28 days each. Appropriately graded subjective parameters were assessed on a weekly basis. Significant results were noted in Avipak, Klam, Utklesh, Tikta- amlaudgar, Gaurav, Hrud kanthadah, Aruchi in both groups. The present study confirms that Sootshekhar ras is relatively more effective than Shankha bhasma in Garavishajanit amlapitta.

Keywords: Viruddhahar, Garavisha, Amlapitta, Sootshekhar Ras.
