[[Rasayana]], the first chapter of the [[Chikitsa Sthana]] deals with one of the most important specialties of ''Ashtanga'' (eight branches)Ayurveda, namely, ''Rasayana Tantra''. [[Rasayana]] essentially denotes medicinal nutrition, rejuvenation, longevity, immune-enhancing and geriatric health care. The ''rasayanas'' are not necessarily drugs. They may be in the form of a ''rasayana'' food, or a positive healthy life style with a ''Rasayana'' effect or a ''Rasayana'' drug or all the three together. The ''Rasayana'' remedies promote good qualities of the cells and tissues of the body through improved nutrient effect, boosting the digestion, metabolism and/or augmenting the microcirculation and tissue perfusion. This chapter is divided in four ''padas'' (parts) dealing with different aspects of ''rasayana'' therapy.
