This particular phenomenon should be understood regarding ''vriddhi'' i.e. increase in the ''apyamsha'' i.e. liquid content of the body. This leads to ''utklesha'' and can be called as transient increase in ''rasa'' (body fluids) and ''kleda'' (moisture). ''Sneha'' has the predominance of ''apa mahabhuta'', which is corroborated by the specific qualities. (Cha.Su.22/15, AH.Su.1/11) and it is hydrophilic in nature. After proper ''snehana'', all the cells of body become completely saturated with fats. Then the fat material comes out of the cell to extra-cellular fluid by osmosis. So, due to the aqueous properties of ''sneha'' and liquefied waste brought from the tissues, the levels of fatty acids etc. increase in the blood resulting in the high plasma volume. To keep up the equilibrium of the normal plasma, the extra amount of liquid from it, reaches the ''koshtha'' for excretion. This is called as ''anu pravana bhava''. Later on when emetics or purgatives are administered, this increased amount of the body fluids are evacuated by which the vitiated ''doshas'' and in-excreted ''malas'' also expelled out resulting in the radical cure of the disease. By the combined effect of oleation and sudation, excessive increase of ''dosha'' liquification of ''dosha'', digestion of ''dosha'', opening of micro-channels and control of ''vata'' occurs so that, the ''doshas'' come to the ''kostha'' by Anupravana Bhava, then they are expelled out through nearest route by proper ''shodhana karma'' (Ch.Su. 28/33).
