Dear Collegues,

It is a very intersting discussion.

Let me ask you some question. Is that the guarantee, use of ayurvedic

medicine by most population? Most of the time herbal medicine

considered as safe simply by consodering the large number population

an as well long term use of the product by the population.

The other thing is the constituents this ayurvedic products are more

than one compound in it. Some study shows there might be toxicity

because of the presence of more than one compounds.

The other burning issue is the sudden extinsion of some medicinal

plants because the missuse of the roots of plants. Conservation one

of the major burder of ayurvedic medicine.

Lastly TCM uses to explore new brand drugs for chronic diseases like

Chrhon's syndrome. So they will be scientific research to use this

golden opportunities of knowledge for Indians.

Hi,

Thanks Bashaar for stirring up the nest! Hope our busy bees respond

to your request and bring in the honey to make this discussion

sweet. Yes, these days I usually do not moderate and use my energies

during emergencies like this one!

In any situation, including Ayurveda, if we frankly admit that the

problem exists, it becomes easy and meaningful to discuss it.

Ayurveda was a grand science which lost its sheen because with

development of science it could not keep pace with scientific

methodology.

Indian Government has made some initiatives to restore the old glory

to Ayurveda but the efforts need greater push and acceptance from

practitioners of modern medicine. Becuase there is no whole hearted

integration of Ayurveda with modern medicine, modern medicine

occupies numero uno position in social heirarchy. Modern medicine

doctors and newer generation look down upon Ayurveda becuase that is

what they learn from media. Absolute criticism, yellow journalism,

planted stories from the competetive allopathy usually blur the

view. The spects therefore need to be cleaned for a better insight

in the scenario.

Ayurveda can regain its lost position only if Vaidyas accept the

challenge to give it scientific validity and proof enough of its

efficacy and start publishing the research papers in medical

journals. They have to come out of the shell and prove it to the

world that Ayurveda is meaningful. Decades have passed since

Ayurveda started slipping down. Efforts are required to restore it

back to the position but the modern generation will not accept it

without evidence base.

Quality of medicines from any pathy has has much to do in the

situation. Ayurvedic medicines have suffered the tarnishing due to

poor quality controls. If in the past these were hand made by the

Vaidyas, now these are manufactured in industry. The industry

manufacturing these is resisting to change in the best interest of

its consumers. Till the manufacturers start producing only quality

medicines, Ayurveda's acceptability in modern times will be low.
