तस्मात् पुरीषं संरक्ष्यं विशेषाद्राजयक्ष्मिणः| सर्वधातुक्षयार्तस्य बलं तस्य हि विड्बलम् ||४२||

sanskrit

In such a case, whatever food is digested in the gastrointestinal tract by jatharagni is mostly reduced to waste products and very little of it contributes to the formation of ojas (nourishment). The patient is depleted of all tissue elements and strength. The patient’s stool should be preserved and it is the only source of strength left with him.
