Ayurveda's aim is to achieve physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being by following the preventive and promotional approach, as well as treating the diseases with different remissive approaches. All Dhatus are developed from Panchamahabhuta during embryonic life. During the development of fetus, due to its own reasons Dosha become intensified..According to Kshirdadhi Nyaya, Purva Dhatu is responsible for the formation of next Dhatu. We get knowledge about relationships between Asthi dhatu and Majja dhatu detoriation of Asthi dhatu reflect in to Majja dhatu due to improper transformation. Hence the present study were taken to observe and to assess Majjadhatu with the help of Asthikshaya lakshana with special reference to Bone mineral density. Aim and Objectives:- 1. AIM- An observational study to assess Majjadhatu with the help of Asthikshaya lakshana with special reference to Bone mineral density. Objectives :- 1. To assess the Asthikshaya with the help of Bone mineral density. 2. To assess Majjadhatukshaya & Majjadhatu sarata. 3. To assess the relationship between Asthikshaya & Majjakshaya and type of Majja sarata. 4. To observe status of Majja Dhatu on the basis of BMD, Majjadhatukshaya and Majjadhatusarata. Methodology:- Volunteers who fulfill the eligibility criteria was selected and who are voluntarily willing to participate in the study and assessed their Majja dhatu. Randomly persons were screened for Asthikshaya with the help of B.M.D. Screened individuals osteoporosis / Osteopenia were included in study. These individuals were assessed for Majjakshaya and majja Sarata according to subjective parameter made for the same. Observed data were analyzed with appropriate statistical test. Ethical clearance: Was received from the Parul Institute of Ayurveda Institutional Ethical Committee, University of Parul. (IEC No: PU / PIA / IECHR/2019/5) .and Clinical Trial Registry registered in India [CTRI/2019/04/018436 ][Registered on: 01/04/2019] Observations and Results: Total 222 willingly volunteers screened for Bone mineral density test where as 68 was found in inclusion criteria,48 were Osteopenic and 20 were Osteoporosis.14 were found in Heena majja sarata with having osteoporosis & 48 were found in Madhyam Majja Sarata with having Osteopenic and 06 were found Osteoporosis with having madhyam Majja sarata. Discussion: Ashrayashrayi sambandha, Asthi is the seat for vata Dosha if vata Dosha gets increased asthi gets reduced vice versa. Due to Ashrayashrayi sambandha the essence of Asthi dhatu depends on vata Dosha and Ashrayashrayi bhav sambandha, having the property of Ruksha, Laghu, khara, guna of vata dosha. The severe decrease of Majja Dhatu in the body results in certain signs and symptoms such as Soushiyra, Shiryanta, weakening of the bone and other forms of bone pain. Conclusion: Majjakshaya is found in person with Osteopenia and osteoporosis.In the same individuals Heena and madhyam Majja dhatu sarata is found. It is concluded that- Majja dhatukshaya and Heenasarata are found similar to Asthikshaya. There is a relationship of “Heena majja sarata with Asthikshaya in relation to Majjakshaya” is proved. Thus the Null Hypothesis is rejected. So it was a attempt observationally to assess Majjadhatu with the help of Asthikshaya Lakshana with special reference to Bone mineral density. Keywords: madhyam Majja dhatu sarata, Osteopenia & osteoporosis.

Agni converts food in the form of energy, which is responsible for all vital functions of our body. In Sushruta Samhita, Mandagni is defined as Agni taking long time to digest even a very small quantity of consumed food and at the same time produces Udara shiro gaurava, Kasa, Shwasa, Praseka, Chhardi, Gatrasadana.Mandagni is the root cause of almost diseases. So, by maintaining Jatharagni in normal state, we can prevent further diseases. In view of this practical implementation of this study found to be possible and easily adaptable. Though Ayurveda had briefly explained the concept of Agni there is some lacuna in establishing the effect of Ghritpana in the victim of Mandagni. Deepan is aimed of correcting the Agni,by its regular use, life becomes healthy, Agni gets improved and health can be maintained. In all most Samhitas Go-Ghrita describe as Agnideepaka, but physician forgets the use of this Ghrita in the day-to-day practice. So, here, first Go-Ghrita was taken for the clinical study. AIM AND OBJECTIVES: • Aim:To evaluate the effect of Ghritpana in Mandagni. ABSTRACT • Objectives: 1. To evaluate Agni (Jatharagni). 2. To evaluate the effect of Ghritpana in Mandagni. METHODOLOGY: Clinical study was conducted on 50 subjects with the symptoms of having Mandagni condition. After getting Written consent from subject study was carried out and during this study 57 total subject were enrolled.All of them were clearly informed about study. 7 subjects quit treatment at different stage, hence only 50 subjects could complete Ghritpana treatment fully. The outcomes of subjective parameter were assessed by standard scoring method of Agnipareekshana patraka and objective parameter were assessed by BMR (Revised Harris Benedict Equation). Ethical clearance was obtained (PU/PIA/IECHR/2019/4) and this study is registered in Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI/2019/04/018468). OBSERVATIONS & RESULTS: Effect of Go-Ghrita was significant result in Abhyavaharana shakti, Jarana shakti,Udara-gaurava, Shiro gaurava and Gatrasadana. and not-significant result was obtained in Kasa. Overall effect of treatment- 50 subjects of Mandagni condition were treated by Go-Ghritpana. So, Go-Ghrita is the effective in the condition of Mandagni, which is statistically proven by improving in both the subjective and objective parameters, and also no recurrence was observed during the follow up period. During this study it has been observed that Agni produced by Go-Ghrita will stay for longer period So,Samagni Lakshana can be seen for long time. Go-Ghrita is having Madhura Rasa, Snigdha and Guru Guna,Sheeta Veerya. Go-Ghrita works efficiently with Prabhava and Agnideepana is effect of this. So, this Prabhava, work by suppressing Rasa, Vipaka and Veerya. CONCLUSION According to statistical study, the alternate hypothesis- Go-Ghrita has beneficial effect in Mandagni is accepted.
