Maintaining a healthy balance between the internal digestive fire (Jatharagni) and the excretory system (Kostha) is essential to Ayurvedic preventive and therapeutic principles. Triphala is the most well-known Ayurvedic composition, consisting of equal amounts of powdered three fruits. Amalaki (Emblica officinalis), Vibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica), and Haritaki (Terminalia chebula) are all extremely potent Chakshushya Rasayana (visual function rejuvenator). Triphala Churna interacts with all three Doshas (body humors); that is, Haritaki affects the Vata Dosha, Amalaki controls the Pitta Dosha, and Vibhitaki affects the Kapha Dosha.

Ashru (tears) has been depleted in Shushkakshipaka (dry eye condition), a Vatapitta dominant ocular disorder that causes Paka (eye inflammation).
