Abstract: The key intends of Ayurveda is to maintain the health of healthy persons and make well the ill health of the diseased person. In Swasthavritta it has been clearly mentioned about Hitakara ahara-vihara and Yoga for healthy life. Amlapitta is a very common disease of Annavaha srotas. In present time a huge population is highly affected from Amlapitta due to unhealthy food habits, mental stress, and inactive life style. This paper investigates the effect of Mudga and Kwathita Sheeta Jala (Boiled and cooled water) as a Pathya- ahara and Yoga modalities in Amlapitta. Furthermore, the combined effect of Mudga, Kwathita Sheeta Jala and Yoga modalities in Amlapitta has also studied. In this present study, 60 patients were assigned into three Group A, B and C (20 patients in each group). All the general observations and results with statistical data of 20 patients of each group were illustrated in the form of tables and graphs. In this study, the therapy of Group C shows better result than Group A and Group B. Hence, Mudga Yusha and Kwathita Sheeta Jala (boiled and cooled water) along with Yoga modalities is more effective to control Amlapitta disease.
