Ayurveda - an under utilized significance in COVID or victim of Business Political Vendetta

 #COVID19 & Its variants -

Attack ACE2 sites

Significance of ACE2 sites - it plays a critical role in numerous lung related physiological processes which may be difficult to describe in a short note; however in common man's langauge they are responsible for critically both water and electrolyte balance in the lung environment, which maintains O2 saturation and CO2 saturation levels by electrolytically influencing transport across the lungs and consequentially also partial pressure environment.

#Ayurveda - the ACE2 mechanism is responsible for maintenance of - jal, Agni and prithvi mahabhoot balance or to say - kapha and Agni; and it's alteration is reflected in two metabolic processes - aerobic leading to hyperventilation and viciously inducing anaerobic due to environmental changes leading to consequential acidosis

This is followed by MOF and Termination of life.

What upon survival - anaerobic stress leads to tissue damages and some of which may lead to auto triggers; which will lead to long term effects in altered bone density etc., Altered thyroid and metabolic functions, autoimmunity and most visibly observed increased incidences of CKD, HTn and DM.

Some of these may also lead to emergence of a new trend of metabolic disorders involving - cardio-pulmo-renal complex seeking ACE2 moderation as the key treatment regimen, which needs to strongly deal with metabolic acidosis.

This can be observed as an instant shock or a long term slow poison effect - whereby an interesting concept of marma (vital points) becomes focus.

To my reading and observation - this will form a part of parshvasandhigata-pranavaha-kalantar marma complex signifying involvements of (mootravaha srotas (renal), pranavaha srotas (lungs and heart), rasavaha and raktavaha srotas (blood and lymph channels), and also mamsavaha srotas (muscular system) - which innately means - the trauma and extent of trauma will define if it is instantly terminal or it will be a slow progressive termination - metabolic / autoimmune syndrome.

Important derivation -

#Ayurveda recognised such a possibility at a time when modern technology was not there and the derivation is actually mathematical, susceptibility of which is defined by your natural constitution, the deviations from it in your present and the influencing environment around you; hence the treatment lies not only in limiting the spread but in a whole alteration of environment to gain a new homeostatic equilibrium; in the absence of any effort of which, truncated life is a near possibility.

More significant - moderation by use of vaccine, is a double edged weapon because it tried to modify the environment unilaterally by moderating rasvaha and raktavaha srotas (humoral system and the haemodynamic system), but seems to ignore the following impact on mootravaha srotas (renal system).

Hence, #Ayurveda in an appropriate measure is the key to success of both #vaccines and any standardized treatment protocol design.

Ayurveda - an under utilized significance in COVID  or victim of Business Political Vendetta?? 

A question that readers can answer and leave as comments

Understanding Ayurvedic medicines - #Ayurveda #Metals #Herbal #DrNitinChaube #Sideeffects #Diabetes #kidneys #Liver #livercirrhosis #agriculture #ghee #hargharayurveda

Assumption - eg: - Medicine X has 5 contents as raw herbs. Each herb has a-z benefits and A-Z hazards.

Assumption Mismatch -

1) C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 be the 5 herbs - each has C1.1----C1.x and similarly others various contents as - alkaloids, oils, and various categories of constituents. 

2) Each of these is together treated in a medium say for eg: water therefore let us assume it forms a physical constitution of solution or emulsion at the start

3) When it is further tempered by heating, or adding other things like salt, sugar, molasses or any metallic compounds - now there is a limited host of compounds added which often reacts with the water or substance in which C1-C5 is treated.

4) The Chemical by product of water + the above coadjuvant added either electrically dissociates into eloctovalent ionic solutions or covalent solutions depending on their bond energy properties.

5) Next these temper, or disintegrate the physical properties and extract the innate chemical constituents of C1 - C5 which are in the form of alkaloids, oils etc.

6) Once these have been extracted this emulsion in the further process of treatments goes through innumerable chemical reactions to form a solution or emulsion or any other form may be a dust of a complex of chemical compounds independent of its original properties.

7) Unlike modern medicine this is physically treated for a any external impurity getting added to this complex derived after processing; instead of isolation of bioactive constituent.

8) Ayurveda suggests that this mixture of bioactive constituents and non-active constituents tends to neutralize the adverse effects of bio-constituents and that is why it states indefinite use of most drugs is not correct even if they are Ayurvedic and derived from plant sources.

9) Each drug has a prescribed regimen for it and beyond, it also mentions signs which will reflect as over use, or as adverse hazards in texts itself.

Argument - This is potentially a strong point and warrants the following - 

1) radioactive tracer studies to evaluate potentially strong active constituents

2) further evaluation of these complexes in artificial environment, animal models and human studies to trace the route and combinations these bioconstituents form within the body and also how do they interact with various metabolic processes.

3) Isolation of a single complex and studying it is only partial account of its effects and adverse impacts, because inside the body at different pH and exposed to different pH and enzyme and hormone assays within the body, each of these contents in the resultant pharmaceutical complex can form different metabolopharmaceutically acitve complexes and that is the potential reason for action of these drugs. This is again to be done using tracing mapping mechanisms.

4) Most of my fellow Ayurveda fraternity and most in Modern medicine fraternity will say this is not Ayurveda. 

5) (A) - If you identify Ayurveda with pharmaceutical products and argue on the basis of these then, until here, we have not disturbed, removed or included any new substances than mentioned in the formulary of the product which is mentioned in the treatise of formulations of Ayurveda. Even the administered drug has not be altered but is in the same form as derived through the processes it went through and resulted in at the end of those processes. What we have changed is the language of discourse, therefore this is essentially, integrally Ayurveda.

5) (B) If you identify Ayurveda more than pharmaceutical products then the whole argument where pharmaceutical drugs are questioned for their a.1-z.n toxicity content evaluations fails, because you are questioning pharmaceutical formulary which you do not identify with your perception of Ayurveda. Thus the toxicology studies are in contravention of the hypothesis and cannot prove the very own hypothesis that Ayurveda is not to be identified with pharmaceutical alone.

5) (C) To those in Ayurvedic community who will say this is not Ayurveda for the first argument, I only can say, if interpretation of the Samhita from Sanskrit to Hindi, English or other languages did not change the Samhita, so the interpretation of interplay of the properties of kshiti-jal-pavak-sameer-gagan in a language of modern chemistry does not change the product.

5) (D) And, to those in Ayurveda fraternity who look beyond pharmaceutical drugs and still question the whole, I feel sorry to say, but probably either they need to unlearn and relearn what they did in the years of Ayurvedic education, or revisit school to recount on basics of science education, which capacitated them to reason and comprehend the complexities of vedic literature.

The debate on Ayurveda vs Modern Science will go on; but the fact that one stands a test of time (a few 1000 years) with its own proven identical of evolution with time, place, geography, population, etc. (Prakruti) vs a few 100 years of exploitation of same processes of formulation and using techniques to hyper refine content marginalizing the prudent principle of coexisting constituents into having highly purified only bioactive constituents for administration is reflected in number of known adverse events of Ayurvedic medicines vs number of known adverse events of modern medicines.

Let us first reflect on what laboratory studies are done and to what extent do they explore the action of drugs, than just reading incomplete research articles which probe attributes of one content or the other, instead of a whole complex.

LONELINESS - MENTAL HEALTH & PHYSICAL HEALTH

"LONELINESS", every one has experienced it!

Some befriend it and some fight it, but no one has escaped it. Let me talk about it here this time with some hypothetical situations and then the medical side of it when it comes to Ayurveda and may be some juxtaposition of modern science.

Let us first identify what is loneliness? 

It is a peculiar state when an individual can find himself isolated without a company, even if he is a part of a crowd. It is a state of mind in which a person goes into a withdrawal and hallucinates being in a state where he enjoys his imaginations which can be dreamy to feel happy, and, or inflict upon self damaging physical and mental well being of self.

That sounded suicidal in either frames, and how many of us did realize we enter into this self infliction mode more often than not. 

Sometimes loneliness comes to you because of accidents because you lose someone in life early or late. This someone is in a way emotional dependence and the world around moves on, but the individual ends up stagnating.

Sometimes it is a dream and goal under achieved which leaves the individual with the same feeling.

Why is it dangerous?

This is dangerous because it allows you to create multiple worlds around, with shifting adaptation to achieve consolation and a masochist happiness which is least realized coming to one with severe damages to mental health leading to physical health.

How does it hurt health ?

This is a long discussion beyond the scope of this article. I would attempt touching a few dots on the outside.

When a person enters loneliness and creates those artificial worlds around self, the person hallucinates happiness and in doing so he attempts to achieve Satva is how Ayurvedic mental health physiology would define loneliness.

The state of loneliness comes with an over drawn Tamas. 

Let me try to simplify Satva, Rajas and Tamas which form three pillars of mental health, and have often been misguided by sages in Indian philosophy and mythology. 

Satva is a state assumed to be of purity which in its most simplistic state, can be identified by a behavior where the individual does not apparently seek options to things and is seemingly in a familial world without any conflict of desire. This is perhaps a state in influence of Serotonin.

Rajas is a state where the influence of Adrenalin is a direct relation as the behavioral dynamics reflects in all three actions of fear, fight and flight. 

Tamas is a peculiar state because here the influence is complex and draws an individual to a mized behavioral influence with probably coexisting expressions of adrenalin and acetylcholine, adrenalin, acetylcholine and dopamine, adrenalin, serotonin and dopamine, serotonin and dopamine, and other possibilites. Each of these combinations is capable of producing a different sense of isolation and allow hallucination. These can be of 7 kinds from being most passive forms to boisterously ambitious and violent expressions. 

Both these extremes are when a person may be into depression and may be self inflicting or socially violent to the extreme of being schizophrenic. 

The in-between states need medical attention more often than not which is not addressed. We should be talking about these, because this is when it becomes important and noticeable that a person walks into drug addiction, asocial or antisocial behavior and all depends on his surroundings, and how they respec his existence.

Often the negligent attitude leads to creation of loneliness. Negligence is itself rajas induced tamas environment and is a classic example of what Ayurveda says prakruti (constituent dosha's of the prakruti) add on to the individuals (age related natural doshic constitution and assumes a reflection of altered satva, rajas and tamas constitution arthmetically) which leads to altered behavior. According to Ayurvedic models spanning assumed age of 120 years the doshic influence moves along a scale of Satva - Satva Rajas - Rajas - Rajo Tamas - Tamas (0 to 120 years). An alteration to these natural states influenced by the factors as above only prepones Tamas. 

This influences balance of Kapha - Kapha Pittaja - Pittaja - Pitta Vataja - Vataj and together reflects as numerous metabolic upheavals across the spectrum and thus reflect as obesity, diabetes, hypertension and anything that is a part of a lifystyle.

As  a lifestyle architect I have been fortunately exposed to these altered states and find loneliness to be a major influence on human behavior and human health.

You must be seeking a solution too here?

If i read my reader right, it is a natural expectation, but sadly the solution is in deciphering the complex permutation and combination of Vata-Pitta-Kapha-Satva-Rajas-Tamas which is prakruti analysis and then mapping and juxtaposing it against a natural normal which is evaluated against a constant of age to the least, and thereafter evaluating the gap between the two. 

This is where and what Ayurveda attempts to achieve in all its treatment models. Which is why a prakruti analysis leads to an appropriate minimal medication and appropriate lifestyle modulation to achieve appropriate solutions. Hence the solution lies in prakruti analysis and loneliness finds a solution in appropriate behavioral modulation and moderation, so as to achieve perfect mental health.

This is prakruti analysis, an art which needs to grow beyond nadi pariksha and various models of texts into a statistical form which is relatable..
