Brief Summary   INTRODUCTION- Hridaya is considered as a vital organ in body. Hridaya (Heart) plays an important role in maintaining physical as well as mental wellbeing of an individual. in contemporary science the functions of Hridaya is limited up to circulation and supply of nutrients around the body, but in Ayurveda Hridaya is not merely limited up to circulation it is considered as Pranayatam, Manas Sthan, and Para Ojas Sthan.

Hridaya is included in Dasa Pranayatanam in Ayurveda.
this particular work has been planned to explore the physiological importance of Hridaya with Ayurveda view point. Acharya Charaka mentioned in Hridya Mahakashayam as Hridya Aushadha Vrikshamla. in Bhav Prakash Nighantu it is said to be Hridroga Hara. it is Hridya in nature due to its Amla Rasa.

It is necessary to know the physiology of Hridaya, without which treatment could not be planned effectively,hence this study has been planned.
AIM- To explore and explain the physiological importance of Hridaya with Ayurveda perspective. To evaluate the effect of Vrikshamla (Hridya Aushadhi) in improvement of physiological function of Hridaya.
