Prevention of Lifestyle Disorders With Basic Principles of Ayurveda

Abstract

Ayurveda is Divine science due to its origin as well as its incredible potency in curing the diseases and pro-tecting the health of a healthy person. In the current era sedentary lifestyle, unbalanced diet, tense mental conditions, smoking, drinking alcohol have led to lifestyle disorders, causing a lot of complications that are difficult to remove. This results in the most common lifestyle disorders like hypertension, diabetes mellitus, arthritis, obesity, etc. Lifestyle disorders are a big problem for our society today. The onset of those disor-ders is insidious, they take years to develop, and once encountered, they are not easily cured. A healthy lifestyle is a valuable resource for reducing the incidence and impact of health problems, for recovery, for coping with life stressors, and for improving quality of life. At present, people are again getting attracted to, an ancient system of healing, Ayurveda as it rectifies disease along with, lifestyle originated consequences. In the management of lifestyle disorders, Ayurveda offers various regimens including Ahara (proper die-tary management), Dincharya (daily regimen) Ritucharya (seasonal regimen), Panchakarma (five detoxifi-cation and bio-purification therapies), Rasayana (rejuvenation) therapies and Sadvritta (moral). These are the basic tenets of Ayurveda. The inclusive utilization of all these treatment modalities has a great effect on lifestyle disorders. And hope to treat lifestyle disorders brighten with the broader approach of Ayurveda. This is an attempt to grab the attention of Ayurveda vaidya towards the unique basic tenets of Ayurveda explained by ancient Ayurvedacharya.
