Person indulging in the habitual consumption of clay (''mrittika'') gets ~~dośhā~~ aggravated according to the taste of mud viz. astringent mud aggravates [[vata]], saline and alkaline mud aggravates [[pitta]] and sweet mud aggravates [[kapha]] [[dosha]]. The clay further because of its ununctuousness causes dryness in the ''rasa'' (nutrients of the digested food). The clay due to its undigestable nature fills and blocks the channels of circulation leading to decrease in the sharpness of the senses, luster, energy and [[ojas]] (vital essence of the tissues). This quickly manifesting ''pandu'' results in the loss of strength, complexion and digestive power. Its clinical features are edema of the cheeks, peri orbital edema and edema on the eyebrows area, feet, umbilical region and the pudendum; infestation of worms in the ''koshtha'' (gastrointestinal tract) and loose motions, the stool associated with blood and mucus [27-30]
