        abstract = {Each Dhatu plays a distinct duty in sustaining a healthy body, and these roles will gradually deteriorate as we get older. As people age, the quality and quantity of each Dhatu diminishes (Kshaya). It appears that stem cells are unable to express their fate in order to enter the cell cycle. According to Ayurveda, the body's tissue systems are made up of seven types of fundamental tissues called Sapta Dhatus. Dhatus (bodily tissue) are created by their nutrition, and the correct functioning of the organism is dependent on them. Beginning with Rasa Dhatu (primary product of digested food), followed by Rakta (blood tissue), Mamsa (muscle tissue), Meda (fat tissue), Asthi (bone tissue), Majja (bone marrow), and ending with Sukra Dhatu (reproductive fluids), Saptadhatus are produced in a kind of progressive evolutionary metamorphosis. The previous Dhatu nourishes the next higher, and they act as the substratum for each.The constantly diminishing Dhatus are kept in a state of equilibrium by the food. This means that the Dhatus are interdependent, with an increase or decrease in one causing an increase or decrease in the other. The purpose of this review is to bring these sources together and come to a common conclusion. The paper provides a broad understanding of the concept of Dhatu-kshaya (depletion) and illustrates its practical application.},
