Abstract

An attempt has been made to explain the concept of Dhatu poshan nyaaya as per contemporary science w.s.r. to tissue nourishment. Various Ayurvedic classics and research article related to Dhatuposhan were collected and analyzed. Contemporary and recent research article regarding nutrition, metabolism, nourishment and Dhatu poshan were searched online from google scholar, PubMed, Medline Plus etc. Ayurvedic classics were searched for better understanding of Dhatu and Dhatu Poshan. Theories of Dhatu Poshan Nyaaya are not different all together but these have conjugative sequence or different levels of digestion from ingestion of food to metabolism at cell level or whole nourishment process. In this way all theories are not controvert each other while these theories stand as one set of principle of tissue
