Abstract

Grahani Roga is the prime disease of gastro-intestinal tract and seen often in day-today practice. In our classics Grahani is described as an Agni Adhishthana. Any disturbance in the status of Agni leads to Grahani Roga. The rapid increase in the prevalence of Grahani is a matter of great concern now days. IBS, a condition influenced by sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diet, stress, and environmental changes, disrupts the balance between normal Vata Dosha and Agni. Agni weakness causes food to be vitiated and released in indigested form, leading to fermentation and causing poisoning in the body. This paper discusses the pathogenesis of Grahani Roga, a condition linked to impaired digestive function, and presents various treatment modalities, including herbs, Yoga, and lifestyle modifications.
