View through CrossRef
In Ayurveda both the body and disease are considered to be food dependant - Ahara Sambhavam Vastuh Rogaschahara Sambhavah. Ahara is given the first place among three Upastambha which are the most essential for living. In Yuktivyapashraya Chikitsa, only medicine and food are planned. These medicinal Ahara and Vihara are called Upashaya and opposite is Anupashaya. Principle of Pathya-Apathya is similar to Upshay-Anupshay. To advocate importance of Pathya, Acharyas have mentioned specific Pathya and Apathyas in accordance to disease. This conceptual study is an attempt to throw light on the importance of Pathya-Apathya in disease as well as normal life. The concept of Pathya and Apathya is important in the treatment of every disease as well as for prevention or for maintaining a healthy life.
