Brief Description
Ayurveda uses a threefold classification known as Tridosha theory for determining a person’s mind—body classification. Tridosha theory identifies principles of motion (Vata), metabolism (Pitta), and structure (Kapha) as discrete phenotypic groupings, elements of which may be found in all people, but which predominate in sufficiently differing degrees in individuals to form a threefold body typology. Tridosha theory and its diagnostic classifications allow for individually suited treatment and lifestyle recommendations. Prakriti (constitution) is unique concept of Ayurveda that explains individuality and has role in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases. It expresses unique trait of an individual that is defined by specific and permanent composition of Dosha (primary elements) at conception. Based on constitution assessed, diet and lifestyle advice is also suggested. Prakriti assessment is part of tenfold (Dashvidh Pareeksha) evaluation.
AyurPrakritiWebAPI is a RESTful application program interface (API) for Prakriti assessment of an individual and helps physician to suggest diet and lifestyle to retain health. It is also important for diagnosis and selection of medicines for specific treatment.
