ABSTRACT
Veghadhara is the act of suppressing body’s natural urges. The impact of indulging in vegadhara in long term over various organ systems of body are well documented by Ayurvedic Acharyas. Sadatura is a unique concept discussed in Ayurveda, which is applicable to four professions, namely, Srothriyas (people belonging to priest class), Raja-sevakas (servants of the king), Veshyas (courtesans) and Panya-jivins (merchants).
