A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW ON VATAJA GRAHANI ROGA
View through CrossRef
Grahani (duodenum) is regarded as the seat of Agni (digestive fire) and is sustained by its strength. Any factor
that disrupts the normal function of Jatharagni (a type of digestive fire) can lead to Grahaniroga (Diarrhoea/Dysentry). Grahaniroga is categorised into different types based on the involvement of Doshas. Among all
the kinds of Grahaniroga, Vataja Grahani Roga is more common and can be correlated with Irritable Bowel
Syndrome (IBS). The causes of Vataja Grahani are primarily factors that aggravate Vata dosha. These include
Katu, Tikta, Kashaya, Rooksha and Sheeta. The consumption of factors that aggravate Vata dosha leads to vitiated Vata enveloping the digestive fire (Agni), resulting in Manda Agni, or weak digestive fire. This condition causes delayed and difficult digestion, leading to Shukta paka forming, where the food becomes acidic. In Charaka
Samhita, the treatment for Vataja Grahani is explained in detail. These include Aam Pachana, Deepaniya Ghrita,
Anuvasana Basti,Virechana and Niruha Basti.
