Ayurveda and Ayurvedic herbs

Ayurveda is considered as one of the earliest forms of medicinal systems in the world. It is found to have come into existence about 5000 years ago.

While mankind has always been dependent on nature to find cures for different issues, lately our dependence on cosmetic solutions has risen manifold.

But somewhere parallelly, the Ayurveda has been constantly studied.

Ayurvedic herbs also at times referred to as Ayurvedic medicines are the natural ways to strengthen our bodies in order to fight diseases.

Usually, the non-ayurvedic medicines target the various symptoms of a disease but the ayurvedic herbs target the body to develop a defence mechanism against the disease.

They basically enhance body’s power to fight back diseases. So in order to help you find health solutions naturally, Possible’s Ayurvedic Doctor, Dr. Trusha Abhyankar,
