The dominance of [[dosha]] in determination of prakriti is normal. The [[dosha]] predominance of prakriti represented by specific qualities is never destructive to the own trait in any manner, but rather stands out as a distinct, recognizable quality of that person. But this predominance of [[dosha]] is always susceptible to abnormalities (vikriti) of corresponding [[dosha]]. The diet and lifestyle provoking similar [[dosha]] as that in prakriti makes the person susceptible to diseases of that [[dosha]]. Therefore, the prakriti having single [[dosha]] dominance (vataladya) is always prone to diseases. The inherent [[dosha]] dominance in prakriti up to a certain limit is not harmful. Just like the inherent toxin in animals is not harmful to the creature itself.[Su.Sa. Sharira sthana 4/78]<ref name=Susruta/> [A. Hr. Sutra sthana 1/9]<ref name=Hridaya/>
