Conceptual understanding of the Anti-inflammatory effects of Dashamoola with relevant Modern perspective : A critical study
Abstract
Inflammation is a part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli. Inflammation in Ayurveda is known by different names like Shotha, Shopha etc. Ayurveda treats the concept of inflammation as (a) Symptom of a disease (b) An independent disease and (c) A complication of diseases. There are numerous formulations explained by our Acharyas for the management of inflammation. Dashmoola is thought to be one of the most powerful combinations of several plants utilized in Ayurveda for the management of Shotha. The paper deals with the concept of understanding the Anti-inflammatory effects of Dashamoola in Ayurveda with relevant Modern perspective.
