The cause of the every disease including Immune System disorder like Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis according to Ayurveda is “AMA” the metabolic toxin comes from the unripe , not properly cooked , immature and undigested food. Due to the malfunctioning or low functioning of the Agni, the first dhatu- Rasa- is not properly formed. Instead the “ann-rasa” undergoes fermentation or putrefaction is remained in the amashaya. This state of rasa is called “AMA”.

The AMA is formed due to faulty jatharagni and the causes for the faulty Jatharangi are

Indigestion , irregular diet habits , Over eating , Abstience of food , Improper panchakarma procedures and sansarjana karma , suppression of urges , mental stress – sorrow , anger fear , worry , jeolousy , lust.
