Slide 8 - Tridosha Theory Three energies/doshas Pitta – digestion, metabolism, emotions Kapha – lubrication, structure, synthesis Vata – movement, physical and mental function, degeneration Individualized combination/ratio of the three doshas

Slide 11 - Caution Herbal/metal/mineral Ayurvedic treatments Safety dependent on following a complex procedure Many include heavy metals such as mercury, lead, and arsenic 1 in 5 herbal products produced in South Asia have toxic levels Reports of lead poisoning
Slide 12 - A biostatistical approach to Ayurveda: quantifying the Tridosha. Joshi R. J Altern Comp Med. 2004;10;5;879-889. Objective – create an equation to quantify the three doshas Methods 280 subjects Add worth-coefficients to dosha characteristics Individual doshas predicted using equation Predictions compared to qualitative diagnosis Results – equation predicted correct dosha over 90%
Slide 13 - Hypothalamic digoxin, hemispheric chemical dominance, and the tridosha theory. Kurup R, Kurup P. Intern J Neuroscience. 2003;113:657-681. Objectives Show that the three doshas represent different states of hemispheric dominance Show how hemispheric dominance relates to certain disease and psychological states Methods 90 individuals aged 20-30 years divided into six groups Right hemispheric dominance, left hemispheric dominance, and bihemispheric dominance The three doshas – vata, pitta, kapha
Slide 14 - Six factors were assessed in the individuals in each group The isoprenoid pathway – HMG CoA reductase, serum digoxin, dolichol and ubiquinone RBC Na+-K+ ATPase activity and serum magnesium Neurotransmitter patterns – tryptophan, serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline, tyrosine, quinolinic acid, strychnine, nicotine, and morphine
Slide 15 - Factors continued Serum lysosomal enzymes, total glycos-aminoglycans (GAG) and different GAG fractions, glycolipids, and carbohydrate residues of glycoproteins Free radicals and scavenging enzymes RBC membrane composition Serum digoxin and RBC Na+-K+ ATPase activity assessed in several disease states and psychiatric conditions (15 cases or individuals per condition) to find a correlation between tridosha and disease
Slide 16 - Conclusions Correlation between tridosha and hemispheric chemical dominance Link between doshas and predisposition to diseases and psychological states
Slide 17 - Classification of human population based on Ayurvedic concept of Prakriti. Patwardhan B, Joshi K, Chopra A. J Altern Comp Med. 2005;11:349-353. Objective – assess relationship between prakriti and phenotype in a healthy population Methods 76 subjects DNA extracted and genes typed Prakriti assessed Results – frequency of certain alleles associated with vata and kapha, but pitta had no significant association with any alleles Conclusion – correlation found, but need larger sample size
Slide 18 - Conclusions Evidence supporting/validating the tridosha theory of Ayurveda looks promising More research needs to be done to gather a larger body of evidence Additional research needs to be conducted in the area of Ayurvedic herbs Biochemical, pharmacological, and toxological especially
