Abstract:
Acharya Charak has described
Medovriddhi as excessive increase in quantity of
Meda Dhatu leading to pendulous movements of buttock, abdomen and chest with morphological disproportion and
Acharya Sushrut explain
Medo Vriddhi Lakshnas like unctuousness in organs, enlargement of abdomen, flanks etc.
Medovriddhi is caused due to vitiation of body entities like
Kapha Dosha, Meda Dhatu, Mala etc, and if it is not managed it leads further diseased condition like
Sthoulya, Prameha etc. That’s why this has drawn my attention towards prevention of diseases & control of
Medovriddhi with the help of ayurvedic management in the form of
Ushnodakpan and
Vyayama.
