  • The dhatus are the tissues of the body. Dhatu translates to ‘that which holds together’ because the dhatus/tissues support the body and give it shape, holding it together. The dhatus are made from and nourished by the food we eat. There are 7 dhatus or tissues in the body according to Ayurveda and in this episode, Colette explains the fascinating tissue nutrition system and how the nutrition is a step-by-step process of nourishment from the gross to the subtlest dhatu which is our reproductive tissue.

    The seven tissues or dhatus in the body are:

    Rasa - plasma/serum/lymph Rakta - blood, the red blood cells Mamsa - muscle tissue Meda - adipose tissue or fat tissue Asthi - bones & cartilage Majja - bone marrow, connective tissue, nerve tissue Sukra/Artava - male (sukra) and female (artava) reproductive tissue
