Abstract:
The present research work consists of conceptual,
pharmacognostical, physico-chemical and pharmacological studies
along with therapeutic (clinical) effects of the Ushna
and Sheeta Guna Dravya in patients of Amlapitta.
The properties Ushna and Sheeta Gunas are studied in all
above parameters to find out some objectivity. On all these
parameters it has been found that characteristics of Ushna
and Sheeta Gunas are differentiable especially in clinical
study in 185 Amlapitta patients. Patients having Drava
Guna of Pitta dominancy were found to be
significantly benefitted by Ushna Guna containing
dravyas. And patients having Ushna Guna dominancy
when treated with Sheeta Guna Dravyas were also found to
be significantly benefitted. Hence it is found to be positively
proved that there are few parameters at physico-chemical,
pharmacological and also at therapeutic levels on which
Sheeta and Ushna Guna can be objectively assessed.
The study contains all these facts and values in figures
Key words: Dravya, Ushna, Sheeta, Guna,Amlapitta
