  • Ayurveda is the ancient system of medicine in the world. This science of life deals with every aspect of life. Ayurveda has two aims i.e., Promotion of Health and Cure from disease. Rasayan may be employed for ful-filling both of them. Rasayan are the ways of attaining excellent Ras i.e., Attains longevity, memory, intelligence, freedom from disorders, youthful age, excellence of luster, complexion and voice, ultimate strength of physique and sense organs, wisdom and successful words and brilliance. Rasayan also called a Rejuvenation therapy is one considered under Ashtang Ayurveda. Rasayan drugs are those which are capable of importing superior Rasas and Dhatus to the body and toning up the system of healthy persons. Rasayan aids in increasing natural immunity enhancing general wellbeing, improving the functioning of all the fundamentals organs of the body and keep the signs of early ageing at bay. Moreover, it involves two opposite processes that simultaneously come into operation i.e., growth and atrophy. Ageing represents structural and functional changes of an organism over its entire life span. Rasayan is not a drug therapy but it is a specialized procedure practiced in the form of rejuvenate recipes, dietary regimes and special health promoting conduct and behaviour i.e., Achar Rasayan.
