Hyperlipidaemia is a common lifestyle illness defined by an increase in one or more plasma lipids such as triglycerides, cholesterol, cholesterol esters, phospholipids, and plasma lipoproteins. Hyperlipidaemia is a big public health problem right now. It is one such dietary condition that has been related to a number of health problems, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and even hypertension. The ability of hyperlipidaemia to contribute to the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic diseases like coronary heart disease, which dominates the morbidity and mortality picture. It works with Santarpanjanya Vyadhi. In this Dhatupradoshaja Vikara, Medodhatu takes the initiative. The condition's genesis is impacted by both Kapha Dosha and Ama. The increased intake of causative chemicals worsens Kapha Dosha, and Annarasa stays Apakva and develops Ama. Because their properties are similar, the raised lipids can be linked to Sneha, Medo Dhatu, and Sama Rasa. It is more closely associated with Medodushti in Ayurveda, which is only a precursor stage of Medoroga that is easily reversible with an efficient Ayurvedic regimen. Given the significance of Agni and Ama in the pathophysiology of hyperlipidemia, medicines with Dipana, Pachana, Ama Nasahak, Kaphamedohara, Srotoshodhak, and Rasayan properties will be especially beneficial in the treatment of hyperlipidaemia.
