: INSA Digital Repository: Medical Genetics in Classical Ayurvedic TextsGenetic defects (Sanskrit: ²úÄ«Âá²¹»å´Çá¹£a) as described in the Ayurvedic texts.—In Ayurveda, many diseases have been described to have genetic origins. In the description of diabetes, juvenile diabetes or diabetes at birth has been attributed to arise from genetic defects (bijadosha). In his commentary, Cakrapani clarifies that diabetes at birth happens when the dosha that is responsible for the manifestation of diabetes damages the bÄ«ja or genetic material (Agnivesha et al. 2013). In the context of skin diseases the same theory is put forth to explain genetic transmission. The text explains that even if the father is affected by the disease, if the seed (bija) has not been affected, then the progeny will not acquire the disease. On the other hand, if the seed (bija) of the father has been affected by the disease, then the child will also inherit the disease.

Ä€yurveda (आयà¥à¤°à¥à¤µà¥‡à¤¦, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Ä€yurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
