The effect of dietary supplementation of crushed flaxseed and soybean oil on ovarian function in
postpartum Jersey crossbred cows was studied. Total 30 postpartum normally calved cows from
2nd to 4th lactation were randomly divided into three equal groups. Cows from group T1 and T2 were
fed with dietary supplementation of crushed flaxseed @ 15% of DM requirement from day 25 to
day 70 postpartum and with soybean oil @ 3% of DM requirement of animal from day 50 to day
70 postpartum in addition to routine feed respectively, whereas cows from Group T3 was considered
as control, supplemented with routine feed. Follicular dynamic study with the help of USG was carried
out at 24 hrs interval before the first injection of GnRH of Ovsynch protocol and during Ovsynch
protocol (Day 0 to Day 9) of synchronization, which was implemented from day 60 postpartum in
all the groups. It was observed that mean number of class I follicles was significantly increased
in T2 group, whereas the mean number of class II and total number of follicles were significantly
increased in T1 and T2 groups on day 0. During the synchronization period the mean number of
class I, class II, total numbers of follicles and preovulatory follicles size were significantly larger in
T1 and T2 groups. It was concluded that dietary supplementation of crushed flaxseed and soybean
oil helps in increasing class I, class II, total number of follicles and size of preovulatory follicle in
crossbred cows.
Paneer and Cheese are being commonly used food item in India presently. It is a rich source of milk protein, calcium, Vitamin A, Phosphorous, vitamins, minerals and protein, which are required by the body in high proportions for healthy growth and development. Cheese is made by fermentation of curd. It is a rich source of milk protein, fat, calcium and riboflavin. Direct reference is not available in Ayurveda classics but it can be correlated with Kilat and Kurchika successively on the basis of their procedure available in some commentaries. Present study aim at detail comparison of Paneer with Kilat and Cheese with Kurchika.
Background:Non-communicable diseases are expected to kill more people in the 21st century which are the resultant of deranged lifestyle such as unhealthy dietary habits and wrong behavioral pattern. In Ayurveda, Ahara Vidhi (dietary rules) and Vihara (conducts) are described in detail which can be included under the heading of lifestyle. Agnimandya (indigestion) is considered as the root cause of all diseases like diabetes mellitus, obesity etc., which are few among the top ten lifestyle disorders.Aim:The present study is aimed at establishment of relationship between disturbances in lifestyle and Agnimandya and role of lifestyle modification in correcting the state of Agnimandya.Materials and Methods:The present study was carried out on 33 patients diagnosed with Agnimandya having disturbed lifestyle. Patients were divided into two groups with simple random sampling method. In Group A, lifestyle modification was advised with placebo capsules of wheat flour, while in Group B, patients were treated with 2 g of Shatapushpadya Churna for 2 weeks.Results:Both the groups showed statistically highly significant results on majority of the symptoms of Agnimandya, however, Group A provided better effect than Group B.Conclusion:Lifestyle has definite role in the manifestation and treatment of Agnimandya.
Curd, Paneer and Cheese are rich source of milk protein, calcium, Vitamin A, Phosphorous, vitamins, minerals and protein which are required by the body in high proportions for healthy growth and development. It is common food in India. Cheese is also a rich source of fat. Curd, Paneer and Cheese can be correlated with Dadhi, Paneer and Cheese in Ayurveda classics which are listed in Nitya Asevaniya Ahara Dravya (food items not to be taken in daily diet). Present study aims to explain rationale behind description of these food items as Nitya Asevaniya Ahara Dravya.
In Ayurveda classics it is quoted that grains must be used between 1 - 2 years after its production while consumption of new grains should be avoided as its long term intake causes harmful effect on body as it is said to be Guru i.e. difficult to digest and Abhishyandi i.e. increases secretions of internal organs. It is said to be one of the cause for manifestation of Prameha which is being correlated with Diabetes mellitus on the basis of symptoms. Grains are major part of Indian diet. Present study aims at comparison between 1 year old and new Mudga [Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek] on the basis of physico-chemical and nutritional analysis. Mudga has been selected as it is most commonly used and have great therapeutic efficacy. Â
