Overview

As the world has been moving away from nature, it is facing various health hazards, including diseases like Renal Impairments, Diabetes, AIDS etc., in spite of tremendous advancement in modern medical science. Ayurveda, which is a medical science embracing nature as well as a philosophy of life as a way of Healthy living, is being recognized as the potential system of medicine all over the world. We find a logical approach towards health and disease in Classical texts of Ayurveda viz. Charak Samhita (Medical Text), Sushrut Samhita (Surgical Text) and Ashtang Sangrah (Compendium on eight branches of Ayurved).The relevance of Ayurveda in present situation has undoubtedly increased where conventional medicine finds itself unable to fight many diseases. The medical research today is entangled in rapidly increasing struggle against micro-organisms that develop resistance to every new drug tried on them. The patients, not able to bear the brunt of the side-effects of conventional antibiotics are turning to gentler therapies of Ayurveda and other traditional systems.
