Abstract

The concept of suppression of the Vegas as one of the main causes of many diseases is unique. However, very few studies are available that evaluate the strong cause-effect relationship of the suppressed urges and manifestation of symptoms mentioned in the Ayurveda texts. It was also pertinent to understand the aetiopathological consequences of Malavega Vidharana in terms of related systemic derangements in various disease conditions. The present observational study entitled “An Observational Study of aetiopathological Effects of MalavegaVidharana” was designed to understand the effects of MalavegaVidharana as described in Ayurvedic Samhitas. This would further help in prevention of many lifestyle disorders with emphasis on not suppressing Malavega Vidharana as “Nidana Parivarjana” constituting the “First Line of Treatment.”
