The Science and Practice of Ayurvedic Products in India: Traditional Principles, Core Herbal Ingredients, and the Holist
Ayurveda is the ancient Indian system of medicine that takes a holistic view of health, emphasizing balance among the body, mind, and spirit using natural remedies and lifestyle practices.
Core Principles: Diagnosis and treatment revolve around balancing the three biological humor types (Doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) and maintaining balance among the body's seven tissue layers (Dhatus). Wellness is achieved through moderation in diet, sleep, and activity.
Product Composition: Ayurvedic products utilize complex formulations primarily composed of herbal extracts (e.g., Ashwagandha for stress, Triphala for digestion, Neem for skin health), alongside minerals and specialized preparations.
Regulatory Framework: The Ministry of AYUSH, under the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), governs the quality, efficacy, and safety of Ayurvedic drugs. Products meeting high international standards can receive the AYUSH Premium Mark, signifying quality assurance.
