Obesity is one of the leading cause for more than 53 diseases and in India around 30 million peoples are suffering with Sthaulya (obesity), individual habits with stressful life, wrong dietary habits and sedentary life is the main cause of disease and no satisfactory treatment is available in conventional system. Hence there is need explore alternative system of Indian medicine like Ayurveda for the benefits of sufferers Ayurveda dealt this disease as Sthaulya (obesity) under Medoroga (Adipose tissue disorder) and many treatment modalities have been explained number of drugs in Brahatrayi (Charaka, Sushruta and Vagbhat) were cited Bhavamishra was the author of Bhavaprakash Nighantu (Lexicon) which is one of the Laghutrayis (Sharanghadara, Madhavanidhana and Bhavaprakash) text is highlighted with Karmaoushadi (action based drug) such as Amradi Phala Varga explained Vrikshamla considered as drug index of Ayurveda, thus present study was designed to screen the drug with properties of Kapha Medohara (ability to reduce Kapha and Fat), Medorogahara (reduces Adipose tissue), Sthaulyanashaka (Anti obesity) and Karshyakara (ability to make lean) from Bhavaprakasha Nighantu in Ayurveda.

Hereditary Factors

Background: Bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma also called cancer eye, represents the most economically important neoplasm in large animals. Hereditary factors, environmental factors (e.g: latitude, altitude, exposure to sunlight), lack of eyelid pigmentation, age and dietary habits have all been reported to play a role in the etiopathogenesis of bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma. In addition, in cattle the etiology has been linked to a number of viral agents, especially bovine papilloma virus and bovine herpes virus type 1 and 5. Nevertheless, ultraviolet light, viruses and circumocular pigmentation are the major epidemiologic risk factors for the development of the tumor. The efficacy of different treatment modalities for eye cancer in bovines was studied.Methods: All the animals were divided in to four groups of six animals each. Surgical excision, intra lesion BCG vaccine, surgery with auto vaccine and surgery with mitomycin was the treatment protocols followed. Immunohistochemical studies were conducted to know the rate of proliferation of bovine ye cancer. Immunopositive reaction was observed against Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in all the cases.Result: The benefits of different treatment modalities depended on nature, type, location and extensiveness of tumor. Early detection and aggressive treatment were essential in the successful management of these tumors. A multimodal treatment approach was recommended with surgery, immunotherapy and chemotherapy in providing 100% disease free interval.

Hypertension is the most common lifestyle disorder today. Systemic arterial hypertension is that the most important modifiable risk factor for all-cause morbidity and mortality. Worldwide one of the major causes of premature death is hypertension and can lead to major health consequences, such as CHD, CHF, peripheral arterial disease, stroke, renal failure, and death. Hypertension may be a chronic and sometimes asymptomatic medical condition during which systemic blood pressure is elevated beyond normal. Fewer than half of those with hypertension are conscious of their condition and lots of others are Modern treatment modalities are effective for the management of hypertension but pose human beings to their unwanted complications on their long-term use. The conventional antihypertensive drugs have many adverse effects & are not well tolerated which led to non-compliance, switching & discontinuation of treatment. There is no direct description of HTN in Ayurveda but based on its clinical presentation and similarity between pathogenesis factors for hypertension can be correlated with Raktagata Vata and it is considered as Tridoshaja Vyadhi. Treatment for hypertension in Ayurveda on the idea of Balancing all three Doshas. So Nidan Parivarajan, proper dietary habits, Yoga, Meditation along Ayurvedic herbs can be beneficial for balancing the state of mind, maintaining as well asreducing blood pressure. The Ayurvedic drug's potency depends upon rasa, Guna, Virya, Vipaka & Prabhava. Also, Acharyas have mentioned this as Prabhava of the drug. Ayurveda has various classical formulations and single herbs like Brahmi, Pushkarmoola, Jyotishamati, Sarpagandha, Saunf, Jatamansi etc. having Hridya, Kaphahara, Vatahara, Balya, Raktaprasadana, etc. properties which are safe and cost-effective too.

Mental Relaxation

Ayurveda the science of healthy living deals with physical, mental and spiritual components of health. Ayurveda considered Ahara, Nidra and Brahmacarya as important parts of life for achieving goal of Swasthavritta. Nidra is a state of complete physical and mental relaxation of body which play vital role towards the good health status. There are some factors which may disturb physiology of Nidra leading to condition of sleeplessness/insomnia (Anidra). Anidra is abnormal physiological condition which greatly affects quality of life and this problem increasing day by day due to the enhanced level of stress, diversified environmental condition, disturb pattern of life style and bad dietary habits. It is very important for physician society to put focus attention to reduces prevalence of this issue. Ayurveda mentioned different therapeutic approaches for the management condition of insomnia including use of natural herbs, formulation, Shodhna Chikitsa and good conduction of Ahara-Vihara. Present article explored ayurveda view on Anidra along with its treatment modalities.   Keywords: Ayurveda, Nidra, Anidra, Insomnia.

Adipose tissue is contemplated as a dynamic organ that plays key roles in the human body. Adipogenesis is the process by which adipocytes develop from adipose-derived stem cells to form the adipose tissue. Adipose-derived stem cells’ differentiation serves well beyond the simple goal of producing new adipocytes. Indeed, with the current immense biotechnological advances, the most critical role of adipose-derived stem cells remains their tremendous potential in the field of regenerative medicine. This review focuses on examining the physiological importance of adipogenesis, the current approaches that are employed to model this tightly controlled phenomenon, and the crucial role of adipogenesis in elucidating the pathophysiology and potential treatment modalities of human diseases. The future of adipogenesis is centered around its crucial role in regenerative and personalized medicine.

Type 2 diabetes is a major health issue worldwide with complex metabolic and endocrine abnormalities. Hyperglycemia, defects in insulin secretion and insulin resistance are classic features of type 2 diabetes. Insulin signaling regulates metabolic homeostasis by regulating glucose and lipid turnover in the liver, skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. Major treatment modalities for diabetes include the drugs from the class of sulfonyl urea, Insulin, GLP-1 agonists, SGLT2 inhibitors, DPP-IV inhibitors and Thiazolidinediones. Emerging antidiabetic therapeutics also include classes of drugs targeting GPCRs in the liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. Interestingly, recent research highlights several shared intermediates between insulin and GPCR signaling cascades opening potential novel avenues for diabetic drug discovery.

AbstractWe compared conventional and alternative systems for the establishment of apple trees on a replicated, whole-orchard scale. The alternative system consisted of a K-31 fescue sod rotation followed by planting of trees directly into sod that had been kitted with herbicide. The conventional system consisted of a standard corn rotation, accompanied by application of fertilizer and nematicide. Orchard floor management in the three years following tree planting was based on the use of both pre-and post-emergence herbicides in the conventional system and only contact herbicide in the alternative system. The study documented tree growth, pest incidence, and nitrate mobility in the two systems. The alternative system compared favorably with the conventional system for the growth and establishment of four apple cultivars. Many advantages accompanied the killed sod system, including less subsurface leaching ofnitrate-N and lower costs (largely from decreased herbicide use). The alternative system provided an economical alternative to the problem of soil organic matter depletion in conventional orchard soils without requiring increased use of commercial fertilizers. Grower concerns regarding increased potential for vole damage and poor initial tree growth were unsubstantiated.

The Present era is full of Chaos, stress and Strain due to lifestyle modification, changes in dietary habits, urbanisation and industrialisation lead to increased pollution and increase resistance to the antibiotics are responsible for prevalence of many diseases. Nose being the prime and nose exposed to the external envi-ronment, is more prone to these causative factors and recurrent infection. The most common upsurge of diseases is Jirna Pratishyaya, Repeated attack, improper management or negligence of the acute stage leads the disease to chronic phase. Many treatment modalities are explained in modern system of medicine like corticosteroids, antiallergics, inhalers, antihistamines etc., but none of them are totally effective in curing the disease as well as preventing its recurrence, more over they have their own side effects. In Bruha-trayee, Laghutrayee types, stages are chikitsa is described. Hereby, this is a review compilation of Ayurve-dic Classical text in reference to Jirna Pratishyaya and its Chikitsa.

And Control

PCOS is mainly characterised with abnormalities in the metabolism of androgens and estrogen and control of androgen production and can result from abnormal function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. The incidence of PCOS in adolescent and reproductive age women is increasing alarmingly due to westernized culture, faulty dietary habits & lifestyle, rapid urbanization, excessive work load etc. In Ayurveda literature no as such direct correlation of PCOS with any disease is found, though symptomatically menstrual abnormalities amenorrhea or delayed cycle etc. can be correlated with Lakshana and Samprapti of Nashtartava, Artavakshaya. According to Acharya Sushruta in Nashtartava, artava is obstructed by vitiated Doshas and in Artavakshaya menstruation is delayed, menstrual blood is scanty and associated with pain in Vagina. Mainly Dushti of Rasadi Dhatu occurs, resulting in improper formation of Upadhatu i.e., Artava.  The features of PCOS may also be correlated with Pushpaghni Jataharini that is described in Ayurvedic classics (Kashyapa Samhita) having the clinical features of futile ovulation (Vrutha Pushpa) and corpulent hairy cheek (Sthula Lomashaganda). In this Article an attempt is made to understand the specific Artava Nasha feature in relation to Nashtartava Samprapti and to find approach for the treatment from the basal level. Conclusive treatment modalities obtained are i.e., Nidanaparivarjana, Sanshodhana, Agneya Dravya uses in PCOS.
