Further in due course of time food gets transformed into different ''dhatus'' in presence of ''dhatvagni'' (tissue specific digestion and metabolism) and ''vata'' (''vyana vayu'') by the process of ''dhatvagnipaka'' or metabolism, nourishes the tissues through the channels of circulation without any interruption, and produces plumpness, strength, complexion, health and longevity. The tissues are sustained by getting fed by various nourishing factors (''poshaka dhatus''). [3]
