Research article • Virechanamay enhance the amount of neuropeptides by cleansing the completely GI tract, as a result, the quantity of neuropeptides may rise that in turn may affect the brain and modify its various functions. Based on the above findings, we can affect brain physiology to a highly considerable extent through Virechana. Hence, Virechana could be used in all diseases of brain. •The break down of cell constituents secondary to this injury also causes an increase in the number of small molecules within cytoplasm with increased intracellur fluid. If water continues to accumulate it may produce clear vacuoles means vacular degeneration. In Virechana, the water loss from gut may shift this intracellur fluid to colon and thus restrict vacuolar degeneration. Therefore, Virechana can help in all the disease, which are due to ischemia and vacuolar degeneration
