Importance of Food• Food can cause as well as health and Disease• Food in health is choice & in disease compulsory • Tasty Foods helps disease to grow rather than body • Healthy mind takes healthy foods• Scientifically best foods also have no action on bad
mind – it helps the disease than human• Foods – does they improve health or disease?• Scientific foods taste is questionable• How food prevent the disease?• Present situation of Ayurveda is – hanging between
holistic approaches and scientific methods • The difference is – as Ayurvedic Ghee – from curd is
healthy and scientifically developed diary raw milk Ghee is unhealthy
• Ayurveda is considered by the western community as “Food” and marketed with a label of “Food Items”
• Normally food is in a huge quantity and for development of body
• Where in the Medicine is always in a small quantity and restores the health from disease
• A question here is –“whether the Ayurveda is a “Medicine” or “Food”
• If, the Ayurveda is food –why the Food faculties like NIN doesn’t involve Ayurveda graduates –
• If it is a medicine – why the dignity of equality is not provided by the Government
• The questions are endless and without answers – remains as questions
Introduction
My topic –Genitourinary Tract Foods in Ayurveda
• Ayurveda is based on 3 Dosha – 7 Dhatu and 3 Mala
• Genitourinary tract includes –– 1 Dhatu i.e. Sukra/ Artava (progeny tissue) &– 1 Mala i.e. Mootra (urine) – Where three humors – Vata, Pitta and Kapha
generates the pathology with etiology of Food, Regimen and Seasonal effects
– In which Kapha makes more diseases here in GUT
What is common?
• The common is water –• The water in the body eliminated as
Urine is the liquid part of the food i.e. Rasa-Ambu of Udaka
• The products of GUT are urine and semen are under the influence of Kapha and Udaka
Disorders of GUT• As the elements involved are two –• Diseases are of –
– Sukra/ Artava (progeny tissue) disorders &– Mootra (urine) disorders
• As a concept of Ayurveda not only uses the Food to build and rejuvenate the Tissue
• Even by-product or waste of food is also used as Medicine and also building the tissue
• The bulk food in many forms becomes as buffers to alter the medicine real effect or fortify
• Many foods of a province is noticed as medicine in different province
• Thus, it is necessary to identify the materials and promote as food medicines
• The best example is Garcinia is used to get sour taste in food is a best medicine for GUT inflammation and Obesity
“Let Food be Your Medicine”• How come we make the Food as medicine-
– To eat less as medicine or– “Focus on Prevention” through food
• Ayurveda cares about the health through foods and supplements also
• Ayurveda classics deal exclusive chapters on nourishment and nutritive values of the food
• They describe even recipes that are useful in Disease
• In disease pathogenic Channel (Srotas), selective Iso-bio-available foods are scheduled as ‘pathya’ or diet
• All the Pathya are not Medicines but they become buffers of medicines
Pathya - Nutriceutical• Pathya is a nutritive curative diet preparation could
be termed as Nutriceuticals. • In Ayurveda the term Nutriceuticals is explained as
‘Pathya’ and ‘Rasayana’ is better. • Still it is necessary to differentiate and demarcate
these terms of use. • Nutriceutical is defined as “A food or part of food or
nutrient that provides health benefits, including the prevention and treatment of a disease.”
• Or - “Art and science of preparing and dispensing food as medicine in the practice of healing” ie. Pathya in Ayurveda.
• Nutriceuticals termed as – Non prescription products - launched by Stephen De-Felici in the 1980s.
• Ayurveda described such non prescription foods embedded in management and therapeutics many centuries ago.
• Nutraceuticals are from a plant, animal and microbial ingredients like in Ayurveda
• Ayurveda provide a wide range of Peya, Vilepi, Manda, etc. foods
• It is manipulating the diet to get maximum level of active components to treat the disease
Classification of Nutriceutical in comparison
• Nutrients– Contemporary: Substances which have established
Nutritional functions e.g. Vitamins, Minerals, Amino Acids, Fatty acids, etc.
– Ayurveda: Vicharana and Peya, Vilepi, manda, etc• Herbals/ Phytochemicals
– Contemporary: Herbs or Botanical products– Ayurveda: All the herbal compounds like
Chyavanaprasha, Vanari, etc• Dietary Supplements
– Contemporary: Probiotics, Prebiotics, Antioxidents, Enzymes, etc.
– Ayurveda: Medhya, Hrudya, Chakshushya, etc
Pathya dravya (liquids) indicated are –
• Dugdha (Gandhaka Rasayana with Milk)– The Milk is a classical lacto based linked
active principle absorbent is a facilitative of cGMP in GIT and there by makes the erection with aphrodisiacs and regulates the KUB with Gandhakarasayana, etc.
• Ikshurasa (Sugarcane juice in Mootrakrichra), etc. – acts as sucrose based active principle
linkage, as best as for the Genitourinary Tract diseases.
GUT Indicated foods or Pathya• The pathology of UT is better tackled with
Madhura rasa, – and the foods are - Kulutha kwatha, Ikshuras,
Tanduleeya, Trapusa, Yavakshara, Mudga, Jeerna Kushmanda, Pranimamsa.
• The liquids have the importance, – and Ghruta, Dugdha and Excessive water intake is
indicated. • The common foods like –
– Ardraka, Kadali, etc has much effect over GUT is yet not recorded anywhere
Contraindicated foods or Apathya in
GUT
• By the quality of the food,– the items such as Sangrahi, Vidahi,
Sushka Ahara are contraindicated.• Pistanna (wheat floor) sevana,
Kharjura, Shalooka, Kapitha, Jambu, etc are contraindicated
Preventive Food items - The grains (Dhanya /shimbi) on GUT system
• Sukra vardhaka / Sukrala – increases the semen quantity – Masha (Phaseolus radiatus) – Tila (Sesamum niger) – Vastuka (Chenapadium Album)– Potaki (Bassella rubra) – Patola (padval) – Vrushyam (enhances even the
conjugational effect) – Kolasimbi (black bean) - Vegetables – Arookam (pendalam [T]) – Vegetables– Kaseru (Scripus kesor) - Vegitables – Vishkira (wild birds) – Mamsa– Koshastha (shelled) – Mamsa– Plava (water birds) – Mamsa– Matsya (fish) – Mamsa– Kaschapa (turtile) - Mamsa

• Sukra haram – diminishes the semen production– Chanaka (Cicar arientum)
• Mootrala / Vasti shodhaka– Kushmanda (Benineasa cerifera)
• Mootra sthambhaka – stops the excessive urination and improves the sphincter closure – Nishpava (Lablab valgaris) – Tila (Sesamum niger)

Therapeutic foods or Recipies in GUT

Conclusion • There are many foods mentioned many centuries
ago in Ayurveda require patenting as a part food therapeutics
• All these food recipes (Mashandika) are even though practiced by the practitioners doesn’t have a proper recordings
• It is the “Right Time” for making a step towards successful “Ayurveda Food Industry” to establish.
• Clinical studies are made to obtain a clear differentiation of Ayurveda medicine and Food medicine.
• So, "Let your food be your medicine and not to make medicine be your food"
