Kashyapa described Vicharchika in Sadhya Kustha. In ancient time also skin diseases were very common. Acharyas described skin diseases and their treatment in detail. In present era also, skin diseases are very common in all age group, especially pediatric age group. One among them is eczema. Eczema is most common chronic relapsing skin disease seen in infancy and childhood. . Despite of great advance in dermatology and the advent of higher potency antibiotics, antifungal as well as steroids, Eczema continues to defy the best effect of dermatologists. Drug (Dravya) is one among the Chikitsa Catuspada and is having the next place after the physician. Medication is considered as Karana (means) for producing Dhatusamya, and defined as “Anything which is utilized by the physician for restoring the equilibrium of body elements”.

In India also, the grip of coronavirus is tightening day by day. The scientists worldwide are striving vigorously to ascertain the nuances in the etiology, spread, and pathogenesis of new COVID-19 disease and pragmatic utilization of this knowledge for the development of standard drugs as well as treatment protocols for its successful management. Ayurveda has laid emphasis on the Roga Parijnana in the context of Nidana Panchaka and Shatkriyakala in the management of any disease and it act as a beacon especially in the case of novel diseases that surface from time to time. The present review study is to formulate the pathogenesis of COVID-19 in the light of Ayurveda through an integrated approach. The COVID-19 pandemic is considered as one type of Janapadodhwamsa. In Ayurveda, the microbial infection can be elucidated in the terms of Bhuta, Rakshasa, Graha, etc., having idiosyncratic manifestations. The coronavirus can be contemplated as distinct type of Bhuta affecting Pranavaha Srotasa and causing Bhutabhishangaja Jwara, which is one type of Agantuja Jwara. Later as the disease advances, it gets metamorphosed into Nija Vyadhi (endogenous form) exhibiting as different forms of Jwara depending on the extent of vitiation of Dosha along with extensive Pranavaha Srotodushtijanya Vikaras. The factors involved in pathophysiology of any disease mainly Nidana (etiology), Dosha, Dushya (Dhatu, Srotasa), and Agni are reciprocally interlinked with severity and stage of disease. It is crucial to recognize extent of vitiation of each of these factors in order to determine customized diagnosis and management for the patients of COVID-19. The integrative approach plays a vital role in meticulous comprehension of COVID-19 in terms of Ayurveda to recognize each stage for specific management.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="91f45cf5b7954f6c6e58036690a5d80d" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":93801608,"asset_id":90162722,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/93801608/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="90162722"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="90162722"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162722;

Along with the conventional medicine, Ayurveda is also exploring various single herbs and compound formulations against COVID-19. The present paper is an attempt to explore the Ayurveda arsenal in strengthening the host defense system against SARS-CoV-2 infection and the relevance and necessity for whole system research. For the present study, Ayurveda classics, Ayurveda Pharmacopoeia, and Formulary were probed to obtain an insight into the diseases as well as relevant therapeutic formulations. The electronic databases Google Scholar and PubMed were searched for relevant contemporary literature. The host response to SARS-CoV-2 infection is either well-coordinated healthy or dysfunctional immune responses. It is crucial to determine the host factors that influence the consequences of host–agent interaction. Factors conducive to the maintenance of good health (Swasthyam yena anuvartate) and preventing the attacks of diseases (Ajatanam Vikaranam Anutpattikara) mentioned in Ayurveda may be considered as pivotal factors influencing homoeostatic (Samayogavahi) mechanisms of host defense system (Vyadhi-Utpada-Pratibandhakatvam and Vyadhi-Bala-Virodhitvam). Furthermore, it is observed that current research practice of Ayurveda is predominantly drug-based, reflecting the perspective of conventional medicine module, however, compromising the core principles of Ayurveda. Finding effective solutions to COVID-19 pandemic, the Ayurveda arsenal for strengthening host defense system needed to be explored. The holistic method of Ayurveda followed in its clinical practice is needed to be adopted for clinical research as well, with focus on whole system research as compared to drug-based in order to generate tangible evidence.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="90162721"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="90162721"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162721; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=90162721]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=90162721]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162721; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='90162721']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=90162721]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":90162721,"title":"Ayurveda Arsenal for Strengthening Host Defense System against SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Need for Whole System Research: A Narrative Review","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/90162721/Ayurveda_Arsenal_for_Strengthening_Host_Defense_System_against_SARS_CoV_2_Infection_and_Need_for_Whole_System_Research_A_Narrative_Review","owner_id":244065390,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":244065390,"first_name":"Shobhit","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Kumar","page_name":"ShobhitKumar126","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2022-11-06T23:41:46.336-08:00","display_name":"Shobhit Kumar","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/ShobhitKumar126"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="90162720"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/90162720/Water_for_Health_An_overview_of_principles_and_practices_of_Water_consumption_in_Ayurveda"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Water for Health: An overview of principles and practices of Water consumption in Ayurveda" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/90162720/Water_for_Health_An_overview_of_principles_and_practices_of_Water_consumption_in_Ayurveda">Water for Health: An overview of principles and practices of Water consumption in Ayurveda</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Annals of Ayurvedic Medicine</span><span>, 2020</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Water is the most essential element of human life next to air.

Ayurveda considers water as the elixir of life. Modern day lifestyle undermines the importance of water with various inappropriate practices prevailing among individuals. People are confronted with a flood of advice regarding drinking of water. Present day research data indicating effect of water consumption on health is very minimal &amp; basic. Ayurveda has elucidated in detail about the principles of water consumption for maintenance of Health, Prevention of illness and alleviation of disease. At the moment resurfacing of such Ayurvedic principles are very important. In this study, Ayurveda Classics were reviewed in terms of various aspects of water viz. importance of water, relation of water intake to food, water consumption according to season, therapeutic uses of water and indications-contraindications of water. The electronic databases Google Scholar and PubMed were searched for relevant contemporary literature. Classical Ayurveda methods of water purification can be economical, green and environment friendly. Ayurveda advocates the optimal &amp; judicious use of water for the maintenance of health. Due to the ritu (season) specific state of dosha, specific water is indicated in different season. Medicated water, administered as per the disease condition, helps in balancing the vitiated doshas. This review has attempted to compile and analyse the significance of water in maintenance of health and alleviation of disease of an individual. Scope: This exploratory work may be considered as a potential source for generating newer hypothesis in the field of Water and Health research.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="90162720"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="90162720"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162720;

Though studies are done regarding bad effect of consanguineous marriages in ancient and current sciences as well, but in seriousness are not disseminated to the nuke and corner of the society through scientific reports. Consanguineous marriages incidences are also may be varying from area to area or from culture to culture.

In India also, the grip of coronavirus is tightening day by day. The scientists worldwide are striving vigorously to ascertain the nuances in the etiology, spread, and pathogenesis of new COVID-19 disease and pragmatic utilization of this knowledge for the development of standard drugs as well as treatment protocols for its successful management. Ayurveda has laid emphasis on the Roga Parijnana in the context of Nidana Panchaka and Shatkriyakala in the management of any disease and it act as a beacon especially in the case of novel diseases that surface from time to time. The present review study is to formulate the pathogenesis of COVID-19 in the light of Ayurveda through an integrated approach. The COVID-19 pandemic is considered as one type of Janapadodhwamsa. In Ayurveda, the microbial infection can be elucidated in the terms of Bhuta, Rakshasa, Graha, etc., having idiosyncratic manifestations. The coronavirus can be contemplated as distinct type of Bhuta affecting Pranavaha Srotasa and causing Bhutabhishangaja Jwara, which is one type of Agantuja Jwara. Later as the disease advances, it gets metamorphosed into Nija Vyadhi (endogenous form) exhibiting as different forms of Jwara depending on the extent of vitiation of Dosha along with extensive Pranavaha Srotodushtijanya Vikaras. The factors involved in pathophysiology of any disease mainly Nidana (etiology), Dosha, Dushya (Dhatu, Srotasa), and Agni are reciprocally interlinked with severity and stage of disease. It is crucial to recognize extent of vitiation of each of these factors in order to determine customized diagnosis and management for the patients of COVID-19. The integrative approach plays a vital role in meticulous comprehension of COVID-19 in terms of Ayurveda to recognize each stage for specific management.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="91f45cf5b7954f6c6e58036690a5d80d" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":93801608,"asset_id":90162722,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/93801608/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="90162722"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="90162722"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162722;

Along with the conventional medicine, Ayurveda is also exploring various single herbs and compound formulations against COVID-19. The present paper is an attempt to explore the Ayurveda arsenal in strengthening the host defense system against SARS-CoV-2 infection and the relevance and necessity for whole system research. For the present study, Ayurveda classics, Ayurveda Pharmacopoeia, and Formulary were probed to obtain an insight into the diseases as well as relevant therapeutic formulations. The electronic databases Google Scholar and PubMed were searched for relevant contemporary literature. The host response to SARS-CoV-2 infection is either well-coordinated healthy or dysfunctional immune responses. It is crucial to determine the host factors that influence the consequences of host–agent interaction. Factors conducive to the maintenance of good health (Swasthyam yena anuvartate) and preventing the attacks of diseases (Ajatanam Vikaranam Anutpattikara) mentioned in Ayurveda may be considered as pivotal factors influencing homoeostatic (Samayogavahi) mechanisms of host defense system (Vyadhi-Utpada-Pratibandhakatvam and Vyadhi-Bala-Virodhitvam). Furthermore, it is observed that current research practice of Ayurveda is predominantly drug-based, reflecting the perspective of conventional medicine module, however, compromising the core principles of Ayurveda. Finding effective solutions to COVID-19 pandemic, the Ayurveda arsenal for strengthening host defense system needed to be explored. The holistic method of Ayurveda followed in its clinical practice is needed to be adopted for clinical research as well, with focus on whole system research as compared to drug-based in order to generate tangible evidence.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="90162721"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="90162721"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162721; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=90162721]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=90162721]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162721; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='90162721']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=90162721]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":90162721,"title":"Ayurveda Arsenal for Strengthening Host Defense System against SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Need for Whole System Research: A Narrative Review","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/90162721/Ayurveda_Arsenal_for_Strengthening_Host_Defense_System_against_SARS_CoV_2_Infection_and_Need_for_Whole_System_Research_A_Narrative_Review","owner_id":244065390,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":244065390,"first_name":"Shobhit","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Kumar","page_name":"ShobhitKumar126","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2022-11-06T23:41:46.336-08:00","display_name":"Shobhit Kumar","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/ShobhitKumar126"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="90162720"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/90162720/Water_for_Health_An_overview_of_principles_and_practices_of_Water_consumption_in_Ayurveda"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Water for Health: An overview of principles and practices of Water consumption in Ayurveda" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/90162720/Water_for_Health_An_overview_of_principles_and_practices_of_Water_consumption_in_Ayurveda">Water for Health: An overview of principles and practices of Water consumption in Ayurveda</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Annals of Ayurvedic Medicine</span><span>, 2020</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Water is the most essential element of human life next to air.

Ayurveda considers water as the elixir of life. Modern day lifestyle undermines the importance of water with various inappropriate practices prevailing among individuals. People are confronted with a flood of advice regarding drinking of water. Present day research data indicating effect of water consumption on health is very minimal &amp; basic. Ayurveda has elucidated in detail about the principles of water consumption for maintenance of Health, Prevention of illness and alleviation of disease. At the moment resurfacing of such Ayurvedic principles are very important. In this study, Ayurveda Classics were reviewed in terms of various aspects of water viz. importance of water, relation of water intake to food, water consumption according to season, therapeutic uses of water and indications-contraindications of water. The electronic databases Google Scholar and PubMed were searched for relevant contemporary literature. Classical Ayurveda methods of water purification can be economical, green and environment friendly. Ayurveda advocates the optimal &amp; judicious use of water for the maintenance of health. Due to the ritu (season) specific state of dosha, specific water is indicated in different season. Medicated water, administered as per the disease condition, helps in balancing the vitiated doshas. This review has attempted to compile and analyse the significance of water in maintenance of health and alleviation of disease of an individual. Scope: This exploratory work may be considered as a potential source for generating newer hypothesis in the field of Water and Health research.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="90162720"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="90162720"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 90162720;
