  • Abstract:
  • Agni, or digestive fire, is a fundamental concept in Ayurveda that plays a critical role in maintaining health and well-being. It governs digestive processes, metabolism, and the conversion of food into energy. In Ayurvedic medicine, the state of Agni is considered a key determinant in disease pathogenesis. Imbalance in Agni is believed to lead to the accumulation of doshas (bodily humors), tissues (dhatus), and waste products (malas), which ultimately result in disease formation. This article explores the importance of Agni in disease pathogenesis, its role in health, and its therapeutic implications in modern Ayurvedic practices.
