A Compressive Review Article on Pandu Roga (Anaemia)
Author : Dr. Shyam Tiwari
Abstract :
The disease pandu is fairly widespread in society. In India, Pandu Roga is most frequently caused by a nutritional iron deficiency. Lack of haemoglobin and Dhatus are two symptoms of Pandu Roga (Anemia), which is brought on by a diet low in iron. The symptoms of these illnesses include skin discolorations that are Shweta (whitish), Pita (yellowish), and Harita (greenish), as well as the appearance of Ketaki Dhuli Nibha Chaya (discoloration that resembles the colour of the Pandanus flowers). The most common nutritional deficiency illness in the world is anaemia, which is a significant issue for global public health. Several oral iron preparations are used to treat anaemia, but they come with a variety of side effects, including nauseousness, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and a metallic taste. Due to changes in the intestinal flora, these worsen the patient's condition. There are many options available in Ayurveda for treating Pandu Roga. The Ayurvedic perspective on Pandu Roga (Anemia) is summarised in this scientific paper.
