DEDESCRIPTION

Ayurveda is an alternative medicine system with historic roots in the Indian subcontinent. Ayurvedic theory and practice are pseudoscientific. The Indian Medical Association describes Ayurvedic practitioners who claim to practice medical care as quacks. Ayurveda is frequent in India and Nepal and reports that about 80% of the population uses Ayurveda. Ayurvedic therapies have changed and evolved for over 2,000 years.

Ayurveda include herbal medicine, special diets, meditation, yoga, massage, laxatives, enemas, and medicated oils. Ayurvedic preparations are typically based on complex herbal compounds, minerals, and metal substances (perhaps under the influence of early Indian alchemy or rasa shastra). Ancient Ayurveda texts also taught surgical techniques, including rhinoplasty, kidney stone extractions, sutures, and the extraction of foreign objects.  The main classical Ayurveda texts begin with accounts of the transmission of medical knowledge.
