In view of modern physiology, the rasa dhatu includes plasma, interstitial fluids and lymph.<ref> Dwarkanath C. Introduction to Kayachikitsa. Chaukhambha Orientalia. Varanasi; 1996. Third edition.pg.318 </ref>The rasa dhatvagni is related to glucose metabolism, circulation in portal vein, the formation of white blood cells.<ref>Amardeep Kour, Gupta Vikas, Sodhi Danisha. Importance of Nyayas on Body’s Well-Being – A Conceptual Study. Int J Ayu Pharm Chem. 2015, 4 (1).pg.95-106 available from www.ijapc.com </ref>  In the opinion of some researchers, rasa dhatu has three major components solids, water and gases.  Solids are 7-8 % and contain organic substances like plasma proteins, carbohydrate, enzymes, nonprotein nitrogenous substances, amino acids, internal secretions like hormones and antibodies. Inorganic substances include sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, bicarbonate, chloride, phosphate, iodide, iron and copper. Water is 92-93 %. The gases include oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen.<ref>Neha Rawat and Rakesh et al. Correlation of Rasa dhatu in Modern Perspective: A Review. Int. J. Res.

As per the opinion of Singh G., the fluid flowing in blood vessels is a mixture of ahararasa, rasa, shonita etc. It is not one dhatu.From modern physiological point of view also, the liquid flowing in the blood vessels is a mixture of nutrients, plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets etc.<ref>Gurdip Singh, Revisit To Concept Of Dhatu Formation,Journal of Ayurveda Physicians and Surgeons.2015, 2 (2):pg47-51</ref>  

 

Some researchers opine that the clinical conditions of an increase in rasa dhatu can be considered as acidosis or hypercalcaemia or chronic liver diseases. Whereas the conditions of decrease in rasa dhatu correlates with alkalosis or hypokalaemia or hypocalcaemia or hyponatremia or hypomagnesemia.<ref>Gupta A.  Byadgi  P. S..
