Lord Dhanvanthri, an Avatar of Vishnu brought this Science to the Universe.
The Science of Ayur Veda is now popular.
However the systematic approach to the processes of the Human body as explained by the Vedas is not known to many.
Jataraagni is the Agni that is involved in Digestion.
How the Jataragni Digests Food.
Jataraagni, in conjunction with the ten Forms of Air(Vaayu), performs the following functions of Digestion.
Along with Jataraagni Rechakam and Paasakam it cooks the food by heating, now explained by Science Hypochondriac Acid, which incidentally has
the property of Heat and corrosion,
