Malas are the various waste products of food and the dhatus produced during the normal digestive and metabolical process.The three primary malas being Purisa(faeces),Mutra (urine) and Sveda (sweat).Ayurveda clearly states that only a balanced condition of dosas, dhatus and malas is arogya (good health or disease free condition) and their imbalance is the cause of ill health or disease.
Purisa is the waste left back after nutrients of digested food have been absorbed in the small intestine. While water and salt are absorbed in the large intestine,the residue now converted into solid faeces,leaves the body.The consistency of the faeces depends both on gastrointestinal mobility and nature of diet.
The tridosas must be in balance to ensure normal evacuation.Pitta and kapha help digestion and vata governs the mobility throughout the process. Any discrepancy or imbalance between these can lead to various symptoms of abdominal heaviness or pain, flatulence, constipation or diarrohea. It may also give rise to diseases as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, low-back pain, asthma, bronchitis as well as stomach ulcers and irritable bowels.[1]
