The word ‘''rasa dhatu''’ literally means the component of body with nutrients and essence. There are two forms of ''rasa'' related to body physiology. ''Ahara rasa'' is the essence of food after the first level of digestion by ''jatharagni'' (factors responsible for digestion and metabolism) in the stomach. The second form is ''rasa dhatu''. It is the component formed after the ''ahara rasa'' gets acted upon by ''rasa dhatvagni.''
