An integrative analysis refines winter regimens to boost immunity in children, suggesting effective seasonal strategies.
In the Himalayan geography of Uttarakhand, the transition into Hemanta (Early Winter) and Shishira (Late Winter) presents a unique physiological challenge for the pediatric population. During this Visarga Kala and early Adana Kala, children experience a surge in Agni (digestive fire) but remain vulnerable to Kapha-Vata predominant respiratory disorders. This article formulates a refined Ritucharya (seasonal regimen) for children, integrating classical guidelines from the Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Ashtanga Hridaya to enhance Vyadhikshamatva (immunity) and prevent winter-specific morbidities.
