Why Ayurveda?

"To reduce the rising cost of health care, India needs to bring traditional medicine system, such as Ayurveda, in to main stream. "
- Dr. Naresh Trehan

This statement from a cardiovascular surgeon of Dr. Trehan's eminence speaks volumes of inadequacies in modern day's treatments and need to promote and popularize Ayurveda.

  • Ayurveda focuses on strengthening body's own capacity to prevent diseases and to fight against them.
  • Efficacy and safety of Ayurvedic treatments are established on the basis of centuries of unbiased clinical experience of ancient physicians and no modern day clinical trial can match it in terms of assessing long term efficacy and safety profile.
  • Ayurveda has developed personality models and treatment approaches as per personality models, ensuring better therapeutic results and safety. Modern medicine is yet to develop this type of approach.
  • While Ayurveda offers effective and safe management of chronic diseases, such as Arthritis, Asthma, hormonal imbalance diseases in women, irritable bowel syndrome etc, modern medicine is yet to offer satisfactory management of such diseases.
  • While Ayurvedic treatment improves over all health in addition to addressing the ailment in question, modern medicine treatment can create newer problems owing to side effects of drugs.

However, modern medicine offers prompt symptomatic relief from acute problems, badly needed by patients, and patients deserve them to minimize their agony.

There is a need to develop a more practical approach, where Ayurvedic Medicines are used for prevention and long term healing, where as Modern Medicine is used for treating acute problems to be followed by ayurvedic healing.
