What is Ayurveda? Treatments, Ahar-Vihar and More – Setu Nutricare

Ayurveda, often referred to as the “science of life,” is an ancient system of medicine that originated in India over 5,000 years ago.

Ayurveda is a Sanskrit word derived from the amalgamation of two words, Ayur, which means life and veda means the knowledge of science, hence, science of life. It encompasses a holistic approach to health and well-being, focusing on the balance between the mind, body, and spirit.

Unlike conventional medicine, which often targets specific symptoms, Ayurveda aims to maintain and restore health by understanding the unique constitution of each individual and the interplay of natural forces within and around them.
