Abstract:
Ayurvedic system of medicine is considered the most ancient system of the world. In the prehistoric times medicinal plants were used by the various tribes. Evidence suggests that the people of Indus valley civilization followed this system of medicines. The Vedic and post Vedic period saw the rapid development of Ayurveda supported by the efforts of Charaka, Susrutra and Vagbhata etc. Buddhist monks played important role in the propagation of Ayurveda. However, the invasion of Muslims after 10th century destroyed Ayurveda and Unani system of medicines flourished in the country. Pre independence period again saw the emergence of Ayurveda. After Independence it attains new height with its incorporation into the Drug and Cosmetic Act. The preparation of Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia helps in the standardization of Ayurvedic drugs to compete at global level with allopathic system of medicines. Keywords: ayurvedic system, Vedic and post Vedic period, Charaka, Susrutra and Vagbhata, Ayurvedic drugs

Abstract:
AbstractAs the Indian population’s interest in biomedicine increased at the end of the nineteenth century, public confidence in India’s indigenous medicines flagged. Physicians of Ayurveda and officials of Indian medical organizations responded with discussions about and plans for reconfiguring the āyurveda (“life science”) of the Sanskrit medical classics of Caraka, Suśruta, and Vāgbhaṭa to be compatible with the anatomical, physiological, and pharmacological frameworks of biomedicine. This article considers some of the negotiations that shaped Ayurveda in late colonial and postcolonial India, paying special attention to how these debates affected the history of ayurvedic education. Reflecting on how the presence of biomedicine in India prompted ayurvedic practitioners to reimagine the history of their profession, it examines the revitalization of Ayurveda through the reinvention of ayurvedic education. It probes the historical move away from the gurukula as the seat of education and the institutionalization and standardization of education in the ayurvedic college. The historical record is expanded periodically with ethnographic data collected at gurukulas in South India to offer contemporary views on changes in ayurvedic education over the past 130 years.1

Abstract:
Minerals are alchemically processed as Bhasmas in Ayurvedic medicines or as Zuotai in Tibetan medicines. Ayurveda is a knowledge system of longevity and considers the mineral elixir made from “nature” capable of giving humans perpetual life. Herbo-metallic preparations have a long history in the treatment of various diseases in India, China, and around the world. Their disposition, pharmacology, efficacy, and safety require scientific evaluation. This review discusses the Bhasmas in Ayurvedic medicines and Zuotai in Tibetan medicines for their occurrence, bioaccessibility, therapeutic use, pharmacology, toxicity, and research perspectives. A literature search on Mineral, Bhasma, Ayurvedic medicine, Zuotai, Tibetan medicine, and Metals/metalloids from PubMed, Google and other sources was carried out, and the relevant papers on their traditional use, pharmacology, and toxicity were selected and analyzed. Minerals are processed to form Bhasma or Zuotai to alter their physiochemical properties distinguishing them from environmental metals. The metals found in Ayurveda are mainly from the intentional addition in the form of Bhasma or Zuotai. Bhasma and Zuotai are often used in combination with other herbals and/or animal-based products as mixtures. The advanced technologies are now utilized to characterize herbo-metallic preparations as Quality Assurance/Quality Control. The bioaccessibility, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination of herbo-metallic preparations are different from environmental metals. The pharmacological basis of Bhasma in Ayurveda and Zuotai in Tibetan medicines and their interactions with drugs require scientific research. Although the toxic potentials of Bhasma and Zuotai differ from environmental metals, the metal poisoning case reports, especially lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and arsenic (As) from inappropriate use of traditional medicines, are increasing, and pharmacovigilance is desired. In risk assessment, chemical forms of metals in Bhasma and Zuotai should be considered for their disposition, efficacy, and toxicity.

Abstract:
Abstract In the sixteenth century, a new disease appeared in India. Described for the first time in the ayurvedic classic Bhāvaprakāśa by Bhāvamiśra, it was called phiraṅgaroga, “disease of the Franks”. Given the name and what we know from contemporary reports of European observers in India, this was very likely the correlate to the so-called “French disease” or “Morbus Gallicus”, i.e., syphilis. The Bhāvaprakāśa describes the symptoms and various stages of phiraṅgaroga and presents seven different cures. Five of these prescribe the use of mercury: Three recipes for the ingestion of mercury, one recipe for using mercury as a fumigant and one in which mercury is rubbed into the patient’s hands. In this chapter, I will discuss Bhāvamiśṛa’s representation of the disease and the therapies he proposes for it. I will in particular analyze the use of mercury in the anti-phiraṅgaroga medicines, contextualising them within the history of the use of mercury in ayurvedic medicine and exploring possible links with antisyphilitic therapies in European, Persian, Arabic and Chinese medicine.

Abstract:
AbstractCultures, and especially medical cultures, did not develop in isolation from one another, indebted only to their own dynamics, but in constant interchange. A history of the body hence can only be written as a history of entanglements. The article elaborates this thesis with reference to Unani medicine, a cluster of medical systems still today widely in use among the Muslims (and a good number of Hindus) of South Asia. The history of Unani medicine shows that the “Indian body” is the site of a long tradition of multiple influences and entanglements, Greek, Arabic, Persian, Central Asian, Western and Ayurvedic.

Abstract:
This is an essay on the formulary logic of contemporary ayurvedic drugs. It suggests that there are three different ways of conceiving this logic: the biomedical formulary, the polyherbal formulary of the West, and the ayurvedic formulary. The ayurvedic formulary has a long history of endogenous innovation. Its epistemic logic is best understood through the language of a shastricyogam. This paper will attempt to look at what this logic entails and how it is being transformed by contemporary drug making practices. The transformation produces a range of therapeutic possibilities that bears comparison with and resembles, however, not the biomedical but the polyherbal formulary of the contemporary West. This results neither in a straightforward ‘biomedicalisation’ nor in a ‘herbalisation’ of Ayurveda but leads instead, through a mangling of epistemic registers, to its creolisation and the production of a new ‘formulary language’ which is carefully and critically addressed.

Abstract:
Nas últimas duas décadas a racionalidade ayurvédica tornou-se popular no ociedente e está se expandindo rapidamente. Esta expansão é consequência do renascimetno do Ayurveda na Índia no século XX. Apesae do crescente interesse neste sistema antido de medicina pouco se tem explorado, no nosso meio, da dua gênese histórica e das pesquisas dos textos clássicos, riquíssimos em informação spbre esta antiga medicina e suas ferramentas de diagnóstico e terapêutica prevalente no subcontinente indiano há milhares de anos. O renascimento do Ayurveda se intensificou após a libertação da Índia da dominação britânica em 1947. Na década de 50 vários esforços foram realizados para promover o ensino e desenvolvimento desta racionalidade médica pelo governo indiano. A Medicina Ayurvédica se expandiu rapidamente pelo subcontinente e posteriormente pelo ocidente, Europa e Estados Unidos. No Brasil o Ayurveda chegou a meados dos anos 80 e se desenvolveu principalmente em Goiânia com o Hospital de Medicina Alternativa. Nesta instituição as plantas medicinais brasileiras receberam um leitura da racionalidade ayurvédica através dos vários médicos indianos que lá estiveram. Esta tese de natureza teórico-conceitual, mas com um enfoque histórico antropológico tem como objeto de estudo a gênese do Ayurveda e a análise crítica comparada dos textos clássico nas suas fontes primárias e secundárias. O período de formação desta racionalidade médica na Índia antiga ainda é objeto de muitas discussões dos autores modernos, isto ocorre por que a transformação de uma medicina mágico-religiosa dos textos védicos em um sistema empírico-racional do clássico Ayurveda não foi totalmente esclarecida pelos historiadores e pesquisadores ayurvedisas. Analiseremos os principais textos clássicos e seus autores de uma forma comparativa e simultaneamente tentaremos propor uma gênese histórica do Ayurveda, na antiga Índia, baseada nas traduções das fontes primárias e na literatura secundária dos autores orientais e ocidentais que estiveram ao nosso alcance durante a pesquisa.
In the last twenty years Ayurvedic Medicine has become popular in the west. This expansion is a consequence of the Ayurveda in the last century in India. Although this increasing interest in the western countries very little efforts have been made to understand the historical genesis and the research in the classical texts of this ancient system of traditional Indian medicine in Brazil. The reborn of Ayurveda has been intensified after the liberation if India from Great Britain in 1947. It was a conquest of the movement if Indian nationalism since the beginning of twenty century. The Ayurvedic medicine have expanded quickly to USA and Europe but was in the middle of the 1980 that this Indian system arrived in Brazil and have developed mostly in Goiania City in the Hospital de Medicina Alternativa. In this public hospital the Brazilian herbal medicine have been described in the view of Ayurvedic medical racionality. In this PHD thesis we have a theoretical concept approach but with a historical anthropological view, the object of research was the genesis and the comparative study of classical text. The formative period of this medical system is an important point of discussion among the ayurvedists authors about the historical genesis of Ayurveda. We are going to research the most important and respectable classical text in a comparative study and at the same time we are going to try to suggest a historical genesis of Ayurveda grounded in the primary and secondary sources of the western and eastern scholars and classical authors (the Ayurvedic samhitas) that we could have access during this four years of doctorate course at the Instituto de Medicina Social da Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro UERJ.

Abstract:
Le présent travail est consacré à un ouvrage de médecine indienne classique, l’Ayurveda.Il s’agit de l’Āyurveda-sūtra, écrite en style aphoristique, édité et publié par l’Oriental Research Institute de Mysore en 1922, puis réédité en 1988,grâce aux manuscrits sur feuilles de palme trouvés chez les médecins locaux ayurvédiques. Au-delà de cette édition, le texte n’a fait jusqu’à présent l’objet d’aucune étude, alors que, comme le remarque la somme récente de G.J. Meulenbeld, l’une de ses caractéristiques principales est qu’il propose des liens importants entre l’Ayurveda et la science du Yoga, et qu’il est le seule connu à avoir pour objectif d’intégrer ces deux disciplines. Il montre comment les différents types de nourritures augmentent les qualités sattva, rajas et tamas et comment les pratiques du yoga influencent les conditions du corps. D’ailleurs, l’éditeur Shamasastry le qualifie d’oeuvre unique où « ...il y a autant d’efficacité attribuée à la théorie du ‘jeûne’ et de la ‘respiration profonde’ …». Mais limiter l’Āyurveda-sūtra à une théorie du « jeûne » et de la « respiration profonde » semble très réducteur. Notre étude s’attache à montrer que cette oeuvre va bien au-delà de ces aspects. En effet, dans la partie ayurvédique, elle traite de l’importance et de la signification même de la nourriture et de ses effets sur le corps et sur l’esprit, tels qu’ils sont exposés dans plusieurs Upaniṣad. Dans la partie yoga, elle aborde des concepts dispersés dans les Upaniṣad traitant non seulement du contrôle du souffle mais également d’autres notions ésotériques telles que l’éveil de la kuṇḍalinī l’action des lotus dans le corps, etc
The present study is dedicated to a work in the field of Indian Classical Medicine, Ayurveda. It concerns the Āyurvedasūtra,written in aphoristic style, edited and published by Oriental Research Institute of Mysore in the year 1922,further reedited in 1988, with the help of palm leaf manuscripts found with local Ayurveda physicians. Apart from thisedition, this text has till today not been studied even though, as has been observed in a recent compendium by DoctorJan Meulenbeld, one of its principal characteristics is that it proposes important relation between Ayurveda and theScience of Yoga, and is the only one so far known that aims at integrating these two fields. It shows how the differenttypes of food increase the sattva, rajas and tamas qualities and how the practice of yoga influences the bodyconditions. Moreover, editor R. Shamasastry qualifies it as a unique work where « …so much efficacy is attached to thetheory of fasting and deep-breathing….». But to limit this work to a “theory of fasting” and “deep breathing” isabsolutely insufficient. The present study pays marked attention to show that this work goes much beyond theseaspects. Indeed, in the ayurvedic portion, it deals with the importance and even the significance of food and its effectson body and mind, as exposed in several upaniṣad. In the yoga portion, it treats the concepts scattered in the upaniṣaddealing with not only the breath control but also the esoteric doctrines such as awakening of the kuṇḍalinī, action of thelotus in the body etc

Abstract:
The chapter opens with the history of the sharing and stealing of biological knowledge between India and the West including the story of how the drug reserpine made its way from practitioners of ayurvedic medicine to Novartis’ patent portfolio. The chapter then moves to a discussion of how ayurvedic medicine fits, and does not fit, the requirements of patent law using the perspectives of ayurvedic practitioners and manufacturers I interviewed. Modern patent law leaves ayurvedic medical knowledge unprotected because ayurvedic doctors use plant materials and do not isolate active chemical ingredients that may exist in these materials and also because ayurvedic practice is believed to be communal and traditional and not based on individual invention. I also show how ayurvedic doctors and producers of ayurvedic pharmaceuticals have developed diverse responses to the new regime including efforts to create proprietary ayurvedic drugs and compile their knowledge in a digital library.

Abstract:
Ayurveda is a unique system of healthcare with more than 5000 years of history. It is presumed that Ayurveda is one of the oldest scientific ways of keeping, promoting, and conserving a healthy life. The various natural ingredients that are used in Ayurvedic therapy are of great medical value as is described in the Vedic literature on Ayurveda. The Ayurveda's history laid down the instructions of maintaining healthy lifespan as well as fighting against illness by different types of therapies like massages, diet control, herbal medicines, and exercises. Nowadays, green marketing is a rapidly growing concept, and consumers are willing to pay more for green products. Green marketing affects all areas of the economy. It does protect not only the environment but also creates a new market and job opportunities. The study is focused on the concept of Ayurveda especially in the resorts of Kerala. The majority of consumers have felt that their actions had a proportional impact on the environment.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the progressive development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) before and during the establishment of the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM). In addition, this chapter also tried to investigate the evolution of natural medicines or therapies of PTSD. Findings of the researches showed that significant historical events like wars were the major reasons behind getting recognition of PTSD among worldwide societies. It has a long history as well as existed in different forms and names among human beings. It takes a long time to get the identity, position, and recognition across the different editions of DSM. With the addition of PTSD under trauma and stressor related disorder in the 5th edition of DSM, a large number of PTSD cases were identified and produced as compared to the previous editions of DSM. Moreover, holistic treatment and complementary and alternative medicine approaches were more effective treatment for PTSD and help to nullify the symptoms of PTSD. Ayurveda, meditation, yoga, animals, forest bathing, and ocean therapies were used more for dealing with combat veterans suffering from PTSD.

Abstract:
The term “spices” has been derived from the word “species,” which was connected to the group of exotic foods in medieval times. Spices and herbs have a long history of culinary use, medicinal properties, and as additives and thus have a distinct place in Ayurveda. Exhibiting the merits of spices by scientific methods still remains a challenge. This review investigates the anti-diabetic properties in preventing and managing diabetics and associated complications with commonly used spices. The bioactive compounds in these spices are additionally discussed. The major aim and object of the present work is to investigate the customary therapeutic usage of basic Indian spices and to corelate their observed pharmacological activities with the presence of explicit bioactive compounds present for the treatment or counteractive action of diabetes. This includes the basic underlying mechanism of their blood glucose lowering property including exploratory experimental evidence from proposed animal and human trials.
