 Overview
This
form of medicine is an Indian approach to health and wellness and
has been used and depended on by many Indian doctors and practitioners.
It is over three thousand years old and is the most used in India.
Essentially, it divides the universe into three basic constitutions
or "energies" known as doshas. The three doshas are based
on wind, fire, and earth. These doshas are responsible for how our
bodies act, our personalities and the activities we engage in. When
these three doshas are balanced everything functions well but when
they are not balanced a disease can occur to the person. The balance
is relied upon how the person changes their diet and how to suit
the predominant dosha. This is also reliant upon certain relaxation
exercises such as yoga, meditation and avoiding or incorporating
bad lifestyle habits.
Side
effects
Since
many types of Ayurvedic Medicine have not undergone vigorously tested
through clinical trials to prove its effectiveness as a treatment,
Western doctors rarely recommend Ayurvedic Medicine to treat any
specific type of disease.
As
a common sense, overuse of laxatives used in Ayurvedic Medicine
can lead to serious chemical imbalances within the body and possible
allergic reactions may resulted. Laxatives, in particular, should
never be taken in the presence of abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting
without consulting with doctor first.
