Abstract
BACKGROUND: It is known that the practice of modern medicine would become more effective if Tridosha and Triguna assessment is incorporated into the tools of investigations.

The DPI analysis showed that there were 16 % in Vata, 24% in Pitta and 40% in Kapha. The results showed significant correlation between Ayusoft and DPI at r=0.67 for Vata, r=0.29 for Pitta and r=0.66 for Kapha. Similarly, Ayusoft showed that there was 98 % of subjects were in Sattva, 2% in Rajas and 0% were in Tamas. The GI analysis showed that there were 52 % in Sattva, 48% in Rajas and 0% in Tamas.
