''Triphala'' a combination of ''haritaki, amalaki'' and ''bibhitaka'' is one of the most important medicines in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda Ayurveda]. Its an important ''rasayana'' also. ''Triphala'' mainly pacifies ''kapha'' and ''pitta''.  By removing obstruction to its movements, it helps to maintain proper actions of ''vata''. It improves the functions of ''dhatvagni'' to digests ''ama'' and eliminates abnormally accumulated ''mala'' and ''doshas'', therefore makes the ''srotas'' clear and patent to enable nutrients to reach ''dhatus''. It also controls ''meda'' which helps to maintain balance in all the ''dhatus'', because abnormally increased ''meda'' blocks nutrition of other ''dhatus'' and produces imbalance.

===== Shilajatu =====

===== ''Shilajatu'' =====

Being katu-tikta and ushna, shilajatu pacifies kapha. It also helps in digestion of ama. Therefore, removes obstruction and helps normal movements of vata. It controls formation of meda. Abnormal meda blocks nutrition of other dhatus. Shilajatu, by controlling formation of meda, regulates genesis of all the dhatus. In the conditions originating from ati santarpana, i.e. when dhatus are provided excessive nourishment, but proper transformation of these nutrients in the dhatus is not done, Shilajatu is very effective. But in the conditions due to ati Apatarpana i.e. when proper nourishment is not available for the genesis of dhatus, shiljatu is not the rasayana of choice.
