Kapha Dosha is one of the three fundamental regulatory principles (Tridosha) in Ayurveda, primarily responsible for structural integrity, stability, cohesion, lubrication, nourishment, immunity, and anabolic metabolism. Dominated by Prithvi (earth) and Jala (water) Mahabhutas, Kapha imparts qualities such as heaviness (Guru), coldness (Sheeta), steadiness (Sthira), smoothness (Snigdha), softness (Mridu), and density (Sandra). These attributes maintain tissue growth (Dhatu Poshana), strength (Bala), endurance, and psychological calmness. Classical texts including Charaka Samhita, Ashtanga Hridaya, and Ashtanga Sangraha describe Kapha as functionally subdivided into five types - Kledaka, Avalambaka, Bodhaka, Tarpaka, and Shleshaka - collectively termed Panchavidha Kapha. Each subtype is localized in a specific anatomical region and performs specialized physiological roles essential for maintaining homeostasis.Aim and Objectives: To critically analyse the functions of the five subtypes of Kapha Dosha (Panchavidha Kapha) by integrating subjective patient-reported symptoms with objective clinical findings to improve diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic outcomes in Ayurveda.Materials and Methods: References were collected from classical Ayurvedic texts (Ashtanga Hridaya, Charaka Samhita, Ashtanga Sangraha), commentaries, and modern physiology literature to correlate classical descriptions with contemporary clinical parameters.Discussion and Conclusion: Assessment of Panchavidha Kapha requires evaluation of both subjective symptoms and objective investigations. Each subtype of Kapha shows distinct structural and functional attributes. Kledaka Kapha relates to digestive lubrication and gastric mucosal protection; Avalambaka Kapha to cardiopulmonary support; Bodhaka Kapha to taste perception and salivary function; Tarpaka Kapha to neurological nourishment and mental stability; Shleshaka Kapha to joint lubrication and musculoskeletal stability. A comprehensive understanding emerges only when classical Ayurvedic concepts are correlated with measurable clinical parameters.
