Abstract

In the present era, the rise of industrialization and modern technologies has introduced numerous occupational factors influencing human health. These factors were not explicitly described in ancient Ayurvedic texts, as such industries did not exist at the time. However, the foundational principles outlined in the classical Samhitas—regarding diagnosis (Nidana), pathogenesis (Samprapti), and treatment (Chikitsa)—are timeless and still hold relevance. What is required today is to interpret these principles in light of modern occupational environments to address emerging health issues effectively. Ayurveda places great importance on the role of Hetus (causative factors) in the development of diseases. With constant changes in lifestyle, food habits, working styles and daily routines, metabolic disorders and lifestyle diseases are becoming increasingly common. These changes often act as Nidana for various Shareerika (physical) and Manasika (mental) Vyadhis. The relevance of Nidana in understanding disease progression and selecting appropriate treatment makes it essential to identify these causes as per present-day realities.[1]
