ABSTRACT

The human body is made up of seven different tissue kinds, or Dhatu. One of the Dhatus that is essential to preserving Snehatwa (lubricity) is Meda. In contemporary science, it can be connected to lipids. Lipids and certain elements found in the human body, such as Majja and Vasa, are similar. Medo Dhatu is significant because it contributes to the development of several metabolic illnesses, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus, which are Ayurvedic conditions known as Sthaulya and Prameha, which are brought on by an excess of Meda. In the context of hyperlipidaemia, the current work conceptually attempts to link lipids with Meda Dhatu using Ayurvedic terminology. Abnormally high blood levels of any or all lipids and/or lipoproteins are known as hyperlipidemia. Based on empirical evidence, it appears that increased lipid utilization prioritizes obesity and hyperlipidemia. Numerous tissues in our body, including Meda Dhatu, Vasa, and Majja Dhatu, are high in lipids. Meda Dathu is one of the most crucial lipids mentioned above since it plays a major part in the development of numerous metabolic illnesses, including hyperlipidemia.
