Pure-blood is the basis of life as it nourishes ''dasha pranayatana'' (ten important “life areas” of the body: two temples, heart, head, bladder, throat, blood, semen, ''ojas'' and rectum, (Cha.Sa.[[Sharira Sthana]] 7/9). ''Rakta'' increases the physical strength, complexion, immunity, and vitality of life. [4]

The recommended therapies for the treatment of vitiated blood disorders – such as bloodletting - are not to be administered or applied in all diseases. Like in the case of any disease, treatment measures are to be selected according to the nature of the disease and condition of the patient. Bloodletting should be administered till the vitiated ''dosha'' are eliminated from blood. [18]

Any line of treatment should be planned ~~keeping~~ in mind the basic principles of blood coagulation as described in Ayurvedic texts. [20-21]

Any line of treatment should be planned to keep in mind the basic principles of blood coagulation as described in Ayurvedic texts. [20-21]

After bloodletting is administered, the patient should be prescribed a nourishing diet and regimen that rejuvenates his blood, and thus, vitalizes his life. The diet shall not interfere with the coagulation process or vitiate his blood but should aid in the bodily processes to replenish blood.[23]
