Abstract

Since ancient times, people have been interested in the colour of their skin and hair. A major contributing factor to low self-esteem, which frequently hinders societal adaption, is premature greying. And given that a large portion of the population is currently impacted—especially young men and women—this is a big issue. Premature greying of the hair is referred to in Ayurveda as Akalapalya. Premature ageing associated with Akala Pality is becoming more common, particularly in poor and tropical nations. In India, the WHO reports that the incidence is highest in the 20–30 age range. As indicated in the classics of Urdhvajatrugata Rogas and Palitya, Prapaundarikadi taila is used for Nasya and Krishna-tila is used for abhyantara sevana in this study. In this study, Krishna tila and Prapaundarikadi thaila Pratimarsha Nasya were administered orally to patients diagnosed with Akala Palitya. According to recent studies, using Krishna tila sevana and Prapaundarikadi taila nasya can prevent premature greying of hair.
