Ayurveda

Ayurveda literally translates into English as "life wisdom," and is a holistic form of medicine practiced in India for thousands of years. While it makes use of many herbal remedies, Ayurveda's focus is on disease prevention and health maintenance, though it does provide many cures for various ailments. While modern medicine is extremely effective in treating a vast range of ailments such as infections, some forms of cancer, and injuries due to trauma, it does have its limits.
