Prakruti and Dhatusarta are foundational concepts in Ayurveda, offering a holistic framework for understanding an individual’s health and well-being. Prakruti refers to the inherent constitution of an individual, determined by the unique balance of the three doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha — which shape both physical and mental characteristics. Dhatusarta, on the other hand, refers to the quality and functional essence of the body’s seven tissues (Dhatus), which play a crucial role in maintaining overall health. This article explores the significance of Prakruti and Dhatusarta from both Ayurvedic and scientific perspectives, highlighting their clinical importance in diagnosis, treatment, and personalized healthcare. By understanding these concepts, healthcare practitioners can offer more individualized and effective treatments, promoting the balance and vitality of both mind and body. Additionally, integrating Ayurvedic wisdom with modern medicine holds the potential for advancing personalized medicine and improving patient outcomes.
