Pulse diagnosis is an ancient diagnostic practice described in Ayurveda. The rhythm of the pulse reflects changes occurring within the body and is influenced by physiological as well as psychological activity.
This research discusses continuous exposure to electromagnetic pollution and the changes that the authors observed in the body and pulse. It draws a comparison with electrical activity measured through ECG for the heart and EEG for the brain.
Patients were examined through pulse analysis and physical examination. Where pathological problems were present, blood tests and scans were also considered. Observations of changes in the pulse and body were recorded to study recurring patterns associated with exposure to electromagnetic radiation.
The study proposes that such radiation can increase the qualities associated with the Fire and Air elements, thereby influencing Pitta and Vata. Since electromagnetic exposure has become difficult to avoid in everyday life, the article emphasizes maintaining balance in the body.

Introduction
Modern life is surrounded by electrical and electromagnetic fields generated by numerous devices and technologies. The article describes this widespread exposure as electrical or electromagnetic pollution.
The human body itself involves electrical activity. The electrical activity of the heart can be studied through Electrocardiography (ECG), while Electroencephalography (EEG) records electrical activity in the brain.
The research considers whether environmental electromagnetic exposure may influence these physiological processes and whether corresponding changes can be observed through Ayurvedic pulse diagnosis.
Electromagnetic Radiations and the Human Body
According to the article’s Ayurvedic interpretation, electromagnetic radiation possesses qualities associated with vibration, oscillation and heat.
Vibrational qualities are related to the Air element and therefore to Vata Dosha, while heat is associated with the Fire element and Pitta Dosha.
Repeated exposure is discussed in relation to changes in the body’s normal balance, particularly where lifestyle, food habits and metabolism are already disturbed.
Effect on Vata and Pitta
The article associates increased vibration and movement with aggravation of Vata and increased heat with aggravation of Pitta.
Disturbance of these Doshas is then discussed in relation to metabolism, tissues and the functioning of different systems of the body.
The article therefore emphasizes maintaining equilibrium among Vata, Pitta and Kapha rather than considering an individual symptom in isolation.
Prognosis of Effects of Electromagnetic Radiations
The proposed progression described in the research begins with exposure to electromagnetic radiation and its oscillating and heating characteristics.
When combined with inappropriate diet and lifestyle—Mithya Ahaar and Mithya Vihar—the article proposes that metabolism can become disturbed.
This may contribute to Dosha Dushti, particularly involving Vata and Pitta. Continued imbalance is discussed in relation to Dhatus, Ojas and neurological functioning.
Nidhana Parivarjanam
Ayurveda gives importance to identifying and avoiding causative factors wherever possible. The article applies this principle to electromagnetic exposure as well.
Because complete avoidance of electromagnetic radiation may not be practical in modern life, attention is placed on reducing unnecessary exposure and maintaining appropriate diet, routine and physical and mental balance.
The research also discusses the use of oils and other approaches intended to pacify aggravated Vata and Pitta.
Conclusion
The article concludes that electromagnetic pollution has become a regular part of modern surroundings. From the Ayurvedic interpretation presented by the authors, the vibrational and heating characteristics of such exposure are associated particularly with Air and Fire elements and therefore with Vata and Pitta.
The authors emphasize maintaining balance through appropriate lifestyle and Ayurvedic principles. The paper additionally discusses Pious Oil as the authors’ proposed supportive approach for maintaining elemental balance and a healthy aura; this is a claim presented in the source research rather than established clinical evidence.
