Abstract

Lifestyle disorders are rapidly increasing due to unhealthy dietary habits, environmental pollution, and sedentary lifestyle. Ayurveda describes a unique concept of Dooshi Visha, which refers to low-grade, cumulative toxins that persist in the body and produce chronic pathological changes. These toxins vitiate Doshas and Dhatus, leading to disease manifestation over time. The present review aims to explore the concept of Doshi Visha and its role as a hidden etiological factor in lifestyle disorders. It also highlights preventive and therapeutic approaches based on Ayurvedic principles. Understanding Dooshi Visha provides a holistic approach to the management of chronic diseases.
