SaptaDhatus
Seven types of body tissues:
- Rasa(fluid) Dhatu
- Rakta(blood) Dhatu
- Mamsa Dhatu
- Meda(fat) Dhatu
- Asthi Dhatu<
- Majja Dhatu
- Sukra Dhatu
The seven dhatus are the seven tissues of the body. These are the structures that make up the body. They are integral to understanding the relationships of the tissues in the body, and they are sites that doshas enter when they cause disease. When a dosha enters a dhatu, a proper understanding of the dhatu helps the practitioner predict the symptoms that will manifest and provides clues to the best treatment.
