Rasayana is one of the eight branches of Ayurveda and is the study of longevity, anti-aging, and rejuvenation. The word rasa means essence, juice, plasma-like substances, lymph, taste, and emotion. Ayana is a special study, path, or to enter.

A rasayana targets ability to break down a food into its nutrient parts (agnis), assimilate them, and circulate them (srotas) to deep tissues or dhatus. A rasayana must also support the body’s ability to remove waste or malas, balancing and strengthening the doshas (vata, pitta, and kapha).

The end result of a rasayana (longevity formula) is to reduce the catabolic process (breakdown) of the body, while increasing the anabolic process (strengthening and building up, potential stem cell activation).
