Abstract

The Panchakarma therapy, which do purification and detoxication of the body, promote health and longevity as well as cure diseases too. But prior to such therapy , it is necessary to make a patient fit or ready to expel the already accumulated toxic materials through the process known as Purvakarma (preparatory measures) which include Snehana (Oleation therapy) and Svedana (Sudation therapy). Here an attempt has done to rule out how the Sneha (medicated ghee or oil) that is ingested during the process of Snehapana (intake of oil) produce Samyak snigdha lakshana (some specific symptoms) through Lipid metabolism.

Keywords: Snehapana, Grita,Samyak Snigdha lakshana.
