ABSTRACT

Background- Ayurvedic nutrition is very much essential to keep the dhatus in normal state and avert the doshas from getting vitiated. Among this nutrition given in Samsarjan krama (graduated dietetic protocol), Yusha (soup) is useful to boost the digestive fire. It is recommended in healthy as well as diseased. Aim and Objective-To study the importance of graduated dietetic protocol of Krita and Akrita Mudga Yusha with the help of parametres of Jeerna aahar lakshanas. Material and Methodology- Krita and Akrita Mudga Yusha was given to 10 healthy individuals having BMR between 1400 to 1700 Kcal and Samagni lakshanas mentioned in Ayurvedic classical texts and assessed the digestion of Krita and Akrita Mudga Yusha with the parameters of Jeerna Aahar lakshanas (features of proper digestion) Observation and Results- From the study it is observed that Krita Mudga Yusha takes more time to digest than Akrita Mudga Yusha. Discussion and Conclusion- As Krita Yusha is guru (heavy), it takes more time to digest than Akrit Yusha, which is laghu. It is expected to take Krita Mudga Yusha after initiation of agni.
