A review article on types of Dhatu-Kshaya (depletion) and its clinical significance

Ayurveda is an old science that is very scientific and based on several fundamental principles. The science of life, or Ayurveda, categorizes the body's constituents within three essential elements Dosha (tissue entities), Dhatu (biological entities), and Mala, or waste materials. The balance between these entities is crucial to the durability and healthy lives for people. Similar to a progressive evolutionary metamorphosis, the production of Saptadhatus begins with the fundamental product of digestion, called Rasa Dhatu, and continues with the production of Rakta (blood tissue), Mamsa (muscle tissue), Meda (fat tissue), Asthi (bone tissue), Majja (bone marrow), and Sukra Dhatu (feces from reproduction). Every Dhatu is the basis for every other one and nourishes the one above it. The meals keep the steadily decreasing Dhatus in balance. That suggests the Dhatus are interdependent, with modifications to one causing modifications to the other. The goal of this review is to integrate different sources and arrive at a consensus. This paper explains the concept of Dhatu-Kshaya (depletion) in general terms and gives examples of how it can be used in real-world situations.
