A person who is following a regimen or conduct suitable to a location (''desha-satmya''), time (''kala-satmya''), and habit or lifestyle (''oka-satmya''), when he takes food according to ''ahara vidhi visheshayatana'' (as described in the first chapter of Charaka [[Vimana Sthana]] [3]) - food having six ''rasaja'', taken at proper time, proper place, in proper quantity, and that which is wholesome in nature, will have pure (or healthy) blood. Pure blood formed after proper digestion of food is full of nutritional values necessary for life. Formation of pure blood takes place due to extrinsic and intrinsic factors. Extrinsic factors are obtained from dietary sources. On the other hand, intrinsic factors are generated inside the body, such as ''Ranjaka pitta'' and ''majjagata'' substances (bone marrow). The importance of pure blood is described in ''Sushruta Sutra'' [4]15/7 and ''Charaka Chikitsa'' [5] 15/28.[3]
