Abstract

Introduction: Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of holistic medicine, is gaining resurgence in the 21st century due to the growing interest in natural and preventive healthcare approaches. Its personalized, lifestyle-focused approach, combined with its focus on preventing disease before it arises, resonates with modern health-conscious individuals. Ayurveda's "prevention is better than cure" philosophy provides guidelines for healthy living, including diet, exercise, and stress management, to prevent and manage diseases. It relies on natural remedies, primarily herbs, plants, and minerals, which often have fewer side effects than synthetic drugs. Ayurveda is gaining global recognition and integration, with several countries incorporating it into their national healthcare systems. Its comprehensive approach, including preventive measures and therapies like Panchakarma, is well-suited for managing lifestyle-related diseases. The Ayurveda industry is experiencing significant growth, with an estimated annual turnover of 10 billion and a high CAGR. Despite its growing popularity, Ayurveda faces challenges, including misinformation and a need for more scientific validation. Efforts are underway to promote a more scientific and evidence-based approach to Ayurveda. Material & Method: Review of Literature is taken from several textbooks such as different Samhita (Charaka, Vagbhatta, Sushruta, etc. ), modern textbooks, and the internet. Purpose: Through this study, I tried to connect Ayurveda with modern Science to fulfill the purpose of Ayurveda, which is to maintain health and cure disease. Discussion: New technology combined with old knowledge improves health and boosts productivity. The old discipline has to be advanced since people's busy lives require clear and straightforward methods. I attempted to describe the distinctive Ayurvedic Modern techniques in this study.
