| '''Ama''' is a ] word literally meaning "uncooked" or "undigested". | |||
| In ], ''ama'' is used as a technical word for anything that exists in a state of incomplete transformation. In particular, it can refer to a toxic byproduct generated due to improper or incomplete ]. The concept does not have a direct equivalent in ]. Toxins that were produced at any stage of metabolism and that are circulating through the channels are also sometimes called ''ama''. The first stage of any disease is also frequently called ''ama''. | |||
| It represents, in a gross sense, mere ] which begins in the stomach, to, in a finer sense, even a faulty ] that prevents or hampers a metabolic cycle or chain. '']'', or the fire of life is supposed to be the most important factor that facilitates transformation and an improperly operating ''agni'' is the cause of ''ama''. In ayurvedic ], ''ama'' is a very important factor playing a pivotal role in the genesis of any disease. It is also important in determining the prognosis, drug selection and all other stages of therapy. When ''ama'' gets properly transformed, either spontaneously or assisted by medicines, that stage is known as ''nirama''. | |||
