<p style="text-align:justify;">Udaka means water. In [[Sharira|body]], water is present in the form of various fluids. Udakavaha srotasa are the channels for transport and transformation of fluid (water) and its circulation. They are the pathways that originate from the palate (talu) or kloma (an internal organ controlling thirst) through which fluids circulate throughout the body. [Code:SAT-B.475][1]A water-based solution of ions and other compounds makes up most of the adult human body's 60% fluid content. Water makes up most of a cell's primary fluid medium except fat cells. It is present in most cells at a concentration of between 70 and 85 percent.[2] The human body uses water as a construction material, a lubricant, a shock absorber, a solvent, a reaction medium, and a reactant. It also serves as a transporter for nutrients and waste products. Water balance must be managed for the preservation of health and life.[3] So udakavaha srotas are the channels for regulating the water homeostasis in the human body, and failure to do the same can lead to death. This article deals with physiological, pathological and therapeutic aspects of udakavaha srotasa. </p>
