Abstract:
Pandu Roga is one of the diseases mentioned in Ayurveda characterized by the changes in the skin colour to white (Shweta), yellowish (Peeta), greenish (Harita) etc. which is one of the “Varnopalakshita Roga" i.e. a disease characterized by the change in the colour. The clinical condition of Pandu in Ayurveda can be co-related with Anaemia described in Modern Medical Science, due to the resemblance in the clinical signs and symptoms. Anaemia is a major global public health problem and the most prevalent nutritional deficiency disorder in the world. This article presents the Ayurvedic concept of Pandu Roga (Anaemia).
