简要总结
MedoVriddhi is correlated with the overweight in the contemporary science. Obesity or overweight is a state of excess adipose tissue mass. An abnormal growth of adipose tissue due to an enlargement of fat cell size or an increase in fat cell number. The most widely used simple method for assessment of obesity or overweight is the body mass index (BMI), which is equal to weight/height (in kg/m2). According to WHO, A BMI between 25 and 29.9 is known as overweight. Obesity is defined as BMI greater than 30. The word “Millet†derived from the latin word “Milium†means small seed, Millets are a specific group of plant of Poaceae family containing smaller seed than major cereals. Millets have been used as food as well as therapeutic diet in Ayurveda since samhita kala. Government of India has taken a lead role and has launched widescale strategies to promote millets in order to make India a global hub for millets. In Ayurveda, Millets are mentioned under Kudhanya varga. In Sushruta Samhita specific kudhanya varga is described. Among them, Shyamak (Echinochioa frumentacea) Ushna, Kashay, Ruksha, Madhur rasa, Katu vipak, Kaphanasak. Kodrava (Paspulum scrobiculum)Ushna, Kashay, Ruksha, Madhur rasa, Katu vipak Kaphanasak In bhavprakash Nighantu, Yavanal is described in Trunadhanya or kudhanya. Yavanala (sorghum vulgare)Hima, Madhur, Kashay, Shleshampitajitam, Ruksha, Laghu Because millets have this kind of properties, we can use against the overweight.
In this study total 30 patients will be managed by millets viz. shyamak ,kodrava and yavanala.this millets will be given as diet for once a day for 42 days .
The Ahara Dravya (dietary substance) administration in the study is planned to span a total duration of 6 weeks, divided into three distinct phases, each lasting for 2 weeks. During the initial 2 weeks of the study, participants will be required to incorporate one type of millet, chosen from a selection of three, into their lunchtime meal while adhering to their normal diet for dinner. Throughout the following 4 weeks, the study will continue with the same millet consumption pattern. One millet will be chosen for the once-daily lunch meal from the two remaining types of millets for two consecutive weeks at a time. This pattern will continue thoughout the study. Throughout the entire 6-week study period, participants will adhere to the prescribed millet consumption plan, allowing researchers to assess the effects of the millet-based dietary intervention on weight management and other relevant health parameters. This controlled dietary administration will enable a comprehensive evaluation of the potential benefits of millets in the management of MedoVriddhi (overweight).
