The main components of human body are - Dosha, Dhatu and Mala. Dhatus facilitate movement, nourish the blood, and provide muscle cover for overall strength, flexibility, and smooth functioning of the body. Ayurveda has considered Jara or Vardhakya as a natural and inevitable process as well as a Swabhavajavyadhi (Natural disease). The study of the difficulties of animal ageing, particularly human ageing and old age, is referred to as geriatric (Gerontology) and geriatric (Geriatrics).
