A Literary Review on Medoroga W.S.R to Dyslipidemia
Abstract: Medoroga, as described in ayurveda, is a disorder arising from the vitiation of medo dhatu due to impaired Agni, excessive intake of Santarpana Aahar (over nutritious diet), sedentary lifestyle, and improper daily regimen. It is characterized by abnormal accumulation and qualitative derangement of body fat, leading to clinical features such as Sthaulya, Alasya, Swedadhikya, Kshudra Shwasa and Anga Gaurava. Dyslipidemia, in contemporary medicine, refers to an abnormal lipid profile marked by elevated total cholesterol, triglicerides, low-density lipoproteins (LDL), or reduced high- density lipoproteins (HDL), and is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. On the basis of etiopathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and complications, Medoroga shows a close resemblance to dyslipidemia. The Ayurvedic concept of Ama, Medo-dhatwagni Mandya, and Srotorodha can be correlated with altered lipid metabolism and atherogenic changes seen in dyslipidemia. Ayurvedic management of Medoroga emphasizes Nidan parivarjana, Shodhana therapies such as Vaman and Virechana, along with Shamana drugs having lekhana, Medohara, and Agni Deepana properties, supported by appropriate Ahara and Vihara. Thus, understanding Dyslipidemia through the lens of Medoroga provides a holistic approach for its prevention and management, highlighting the relevance of Ayurvedic principles in addressing modern lifestyle disorders.
