Ayurveda is India's contribution to humanity in its search for health care, well being and longevity. This wonderful treatise on human health is considered as the 'fifth Veda' narrated directly by God to great Rishis of the ancient past. It mellowed with the evolution of Indian civilization tracing its origin to "Adharva Veda' the oldest work of Philosophy and science in the history of mankind.

And where, almost all medicines are of plant origin, they do not have any side effects. It flourished at a time when all the science branches, we now practice, were in its rudiments. Physicians the world over, now consider Ayurveda as a system of treatment embedded in nature that couples medication and recognised lifestyle. In the modern era, where most of the diseases result from mutations in life styles, we have started to look back into this ancient wisdom, which advocates a therapy that has its roots in nature.
