Dr. Deepa Anserwadekar*

ABSTRACT

Introduction: In clinical diagnosis, the cause of disease is fundamental source to determining the line of treatment. It?s not just about naming the disease; it?s about understanding process of Cause and its effect as disease in patients. Discussion: The intricate association between human health and environmental influences plays a crucial role in diagnostic practices within Asian medicine systems (AMS). Causes of disease should be integral part of Treatment as it leads to further phases of disease manifestation as complications. Eventually, to underscores the necessity of a comprehensive, personalized approach in the diagnostic process inherent to AMS, there needs to understand the basic fundamentals of Diagnosis in ASM that can be categorize as 1. Concept of disease, 2. Causes of disease, 3. Classification of Disease and 4. Method of Clinical Examination. Causes of disease are grossly classified as external and internal causes with respect to body. External causative factors affecting physiological functions included all that human being has been associated with and surrounded by during life (Food sources, Climate, socio-economic conditions, etc.). It can be avoided or minimized through appropriate balanced utilization of all food resources available to Individuals. Internal Cause of disease triggered (physiological and phycological and anatomical genomic composition) through negligence of preventive aspect in diet and behavioral lifestyle which is fundamental line of treatment along with medicines. By prioritizing thorough patient history inquiries and symptom assessments, clinicians can glean valuable insights into physiological imbalances, particularly regarding digestive health. The importance of meticulous observation and prognostic evaluations of causes of disease manifestation further ensures that therapeutic interventions which are tailored to individual constitutional needs and health disparities. Conclusion: AMS advocates and emphasizes adaptive lifestyle by means of an integrative analysis of dietary components, lifestyle choices, and genetic predispositions in effective personalize treatment strategies (as per body composition) for resolving impact of causative factors and balancing, stabilizing energy obtained from food in the form of humors in body,. Emphasizing a holistic view, the paper aligns with Rumer Godden?s “four rooms” metaphor, which encompasses the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of health. This AMS compiling sort of review paper examines the cyclical relationship indicating Universal energy ecosystem affecting each other between external causes like seasonal changes on Internal causes in the human body like Humors, highlighting the necessity of understanding ecological effects on physical and psychological well-being of patient.
