Abstract: Mild cognitive impairment is featured by its utility to identify individuals more susceptible to Dementia. In Ayurveda, this condition can be studied as a prodromal stage of diseases causing impairment in cognition; Tridoshas, by its unique nature of maintaining and vitiating both bodily and psychic factors including that of cognition, find an indispensable role in the pathology of mild cognitive impairment. Knowledge of other factors involved and associated in the cognitive process can enrich its scientific understanding in the clinical scenario.
