Abstract
Three supporting factors of life i.e., Ahara, Swapan and Brahmacharya are known as Trayopstambha. These are the three major pillars which balance the Vata, Pitta and Kapha dosha in our body. Auto immune disorder is a disease of immune system in which our immune system attacks healthy cells. Indefinite approach of Ahara, Swapan and Brahmacharya is the root cause of these havoc phenomena. By following the basic rules of Trayopstambha one can cure the upcoming disease and restore the tissue distress caused due to auto immune disorder. It also improves immunity of the body. Ama is one the major cause of many auto immune disorders e.g., ankylosing spondylosis, rheumatoid arthritis, IBD etc., Ama increases the oxidative stress on the body tissues. So, to eliminate the oxidative stress, healthy diet, sleep, and gentle lifestyle is necessary. Ayurveda says one should take Shadrasas in their diet and also include Laghu Ahara in daily routine e.g., Mudaga, Shali Dhanya, milk, Amla, Ghrit, Saindhav Lavan etc. it improves metabolism and health. Nidra is the key element to resolve stress from the body. Acharya Charaka has described Ratrisvabhav Sambhava type of Nidra best for healthy beings. Sleeping during day time, except Grishma Ritu, vitiates the Ama which ultimately supresses our immunity. Brahmacharya improves oja in our body. Ayurveda also describes pattern for maithuna as per Ritu Charya which helps in balancing the Oja in our body which directly corelates with body’s immune system.
