Abstract

Autoimmune diseases are chronic conditions in which the immune system targets the body's own cells and tissues, resulting in persistent inflammation and tissue degradation. The modern biomedical community explains these as immune dysregulation, whereas Ayurveda interprets them through the concepts of Dosha, Agni, Ama, and Ojas. The Ayurvedic diagnostic parameters—Trividha, Ashtavidha, Dashavidha, and Rogi–Roga Pariksha—enable a comprehensive assessment of both the patient and the disease, providing a deeper understanding of the constitutional imbalance and fundamental cause. This paper investigates the ways in which Ayurvedic diagnostic tools assist in the identification of predisposing factors and the development of personalized management strategies for autoimmune diseases.

Keywords: Autoimmune disease, Agni, Ama, Ojas, Trividha Pariksha, Ashtavidha Pariksha, Dashavidha Pariksha, and Vyadhikshamatva.
