[[Dosha]] are the main functional unit of human physiology. [[Dosha]] also govern the physiology of digestion. Samana [[vayu]] functions nearby the abode of digestive factors (jatharagni), kindles [[agni]]. Prana [[vayu]] and apana [[vayu]] supports the functions of [[agni]]. Pachaka [[pitta]] when devoid of its liquid property, is responsible for digestion.[A. Hr. Sutra Sthana 12/10-11]<ref>agbhata. Ashtanga Hridayam. Edited by Harishastri Paradkar Vaidya. 1st ed. Varanasi: Krishnadas Academy;2000.</ref> Kledaka [[kapha]] is responsible to moisten the ingested food. Thus the process of digestion is driven by [[dosha]]. Factors responsible for complete transformation and absorption of food (ahara parinamakara bhava) explain this phenomenon in-depth. [Cha.Sa.[[Sharira Sthana]]6/14],[Cha.Sa.[[Chikitsa Sthana]] 15/6-8]. The vitiated [[dosha]] leads to the formation of [[ama]].
