Ayurveda gives prime importance to the nutrition at every stage of life for preserving health of an individual. Proper nutrition is essential for rapid growth and development which obtains through baby’s first year of life. Malnutrition in India, as in other developing countries,

results from a series of interrelated factors rooted in poverty, including lack of access to food, health care, safe water, sanitation services, and appropriate child feeding and caring practices. Under nutrition is a state of poor nutritional status as a result of inadequate intake, mal absorption or excessive loss of nutrients. As these children is future of community and if such conditioned is not overcome within a stipulated timeframe, then it may result further in growth and ultimately it directly affects the economy of a country also. In Ayurveda, there are some formulations given in Chakradatta, Ashwagandhaghrita is mentioned as balya and Dhatuwardhak. These formulations having energy value with protein rich content and it is cost effective treatment for Karshyata. In this study, Ashwagandhaghrita will be administrated among children suffering from karshyata.
