Abstract

The Rasa Shastra is a fundamental component of Ayurveda and deals with substances of aquatic origin as well as other minerals, metals, poisonous plants, and mercury (Rasa). The Rasa Aushadhi that has been prepared in this way provides powerful immunisation, has a rejuvenating effect, and is used to treat diseases due to its low dose, quick action, long shelf life, palatability, and high efficacy. These days, lifestyle diseases carry a heavy burden because of how poorly people interact with their environment, which is the main cause of these diseases' occurrence. Inappropriate eating habits, inactivity, pollution, radiation, and stress are the main causes of lifestyle diseases. In Ayurveda, a variety of treatment approaches, including Rasa Aushadhis, Kashtha Aushadhis, Panchkarma, etc., are mentioned for the management of lifestyle disorders. Rasa Aushadhis and certain lifestyle adjustments are beneficial.

Keywords: Ayurveda, Rasa Shastra, Rasa Aushadhi, Rejuvenation.
