Although research for a cure is going on at breakneck speed globally, the Modi government is choosing to focus on ayurveda and homoeopathy to prevent coronavirus infection.
A majority of Indian women looking to undergo abortions do so by self-medication or through quacks because of the stigma around the procedure and lack of awareness.
On 9 July 1991, then-PM PV Narasimha Rao addressed the nation days before the Budget presentation, admitting that the job of repairing India's sick economy won't be easy, quick, or smooth.
Air India’s new policy, effective from 2 May, introduces new weight limits for tickets in each of the different 'fare families' — Comfort, Comfort Plus, and Flex.
New Delhi has, in past, too, objected to Chinese construction activities in Shaksgam Valley. Work in this strategic region gathered pace after the 2017 Doklam stand-off.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
I am a pharmacist, engaged in international business, exporting allopathic products for almost 2 decades ….
I am quite conversant with the regulatory framework of pharma around the world …. And …. In many ways the framework itself is at odds with Ayurveda …. Let me explain how …. And this is the key to opening a mindset, not just for the world, but also for Indian government regulators who are struggling with this dilemma ….
Allopathy is based on the platform of single ingredient / substance – action premises … quinine is a purified (extracted / isolated) form of cinchona bark, paracetamol – of Willow bark ….
Steadily the purification and isolation mindset has progressed into almost madness …. Dextro / Levo purification (not elaborating this here) …. And such so called “progress” has been made … to an extent that now the rage is impurity profiling …. And “unknown-impurity” levels of more than a few minuscule percentages are not acceptable ….. total madness in my personal opinion and having more commercial implications rather than scientific or therapeutic and entry barrier strategies
On the other hand co-prescription trend has been on the rise, this is a ray of light in the darkness of treating the human body as a mechanical appendage and a pot of known chemical mixture reacting predictably …..
The insane rush to control side effects is now nearing a dead end …. Purity does not guarantee that , infact it accentuates it , and , the concoction that mixtures of Ayurveda are … tend to have a balance of ingredients that balance lifestyle and need for therapeutic intervention …..The willow and cinchona barks are admixtures of such proportions that has a balancing effect of potent therapeutic parts and seemingly inactive ingredients that tend to control the side effects, or the co-prescription effect that is the trend I was talking about …. Nature has it inbuilt into these potions …. In a manner of speaking
Ayurveda has refined these remedies with experience, in terms of dilution, doses, shelf life and intervention symptoms
Now the crux … such multi-ingredient concoctions cannot fit in the regulatory framework of single ingredient mindset that occidental allopathy has enforced …. Which cannot differentiate between heavy metal and chelated process ( bhasm ) and throws the baby out with the bath water ….
The world beyond this is world of solutions, creative reconciliation and empathy …. The free lunch must end here ….
Where in Ayurveda are dilution, doses, shelf life specified?
How do you know that it has been refined with experience? On what basis did you come to that conclusion?
How do you know that willow and cinchona have balancing effects? On what basis do you say that these barks are better than the tablets? Where is your proof? Are the 2 barks even mentioned in Ayurveda for malaria? Where?
In Ayurveda nothing is properly specified. That’s a problem.
Ayurveda people don’t want regulation because they seem to want to mix steroids and paracetamol, sell for high prices and not get caught.
Its Ayurveda that needs to fix its mindset, not the world. Otherwise, any one can sell anything as Ayurveda without standardizing. How can a doctor today prescribe anything if he cannot even be sure what it contains? Patient’s life is at stake.
ayurveda and homeopathy withstood the uninformed and prejudiced criticisms of those whose only passport is their ignorance,disturbance in vayu pitta kapha depends on law of karma,these are words of dc das gupta in homeopathic herald 1940 june vol111 no 4under article oedema.homeopaths by look at your face can tell touble say puffiness below eyebrow at upper eyelid kidney some fault is there,you bite nails means under tension or some brain sclerosis,allopaths drain out all money of poor person in tests only nothing left for medicines.there are many vested interests and these holy sciences bearing brunt and tea time laughing stock of modern doctors who get their kins treated secretly from top grade homeopaths of ajit kulkarni lm khan like status..
Ayurveda and homeopathy have not withstood any educated criticism.
That is why they are used only in India where people are ignorant like you.
Only fools who don’t understand microbiology etc talk about “vayu pitta kapha” and “law of karma”.
People like you are uneducatable. Only in India can someone this dumb retire as an engineer, nowhere else in the world.

40% of Ayurvedic drugs tested contained steroids
This is a mind-boggling statistic. It says many things.
It says that Ayurvedic pharma does not believe in its own drugs, obviously!!! The believers are the fools, not the herbal pharma. They are solely in it for the money.
It says that much of them are quite simply, frauds. To cover it up, they lecture about spirituality. And fools believe all that.
Need major improvement in its scripting. Most of Illa’s videos are unnecessarily lengthy as information in them is repetitive. This could easily have been shorter and snappy video
Have the fdi or usa have ever check how the bhasma(ashes) are prepared and how the toxic mineral and plant products are being purified , also their is prescribed dosage of the medicine.
Since 10 cent ad the bhasma( ashes) are be purified and used as medicine to make compatibility to gi tract for absorption and non toxic side effects .
Have any body gone through this ,if not then don’t copy the things what told by USA , when they will sell it we never rise over voice
What nonsense!!!
The entire science of medical science developed by knowing how human mind works, specifically how people get fooled into thinking that things that don’t work, actually work. That is why there are placebo trials.
Medicine is very much physical and not spiritual. When quack medicine does not work, it resorts to all trash explanations like spiritual to escape regulation.
There isn’t a word of truth in anything you wrote.
And modern medicine developed without knowing how human body works?
Seriously man, did you even stop to think for 1 second before just typing?
The whole of modern medicine is based on knowing how body works, how organs work, how tissues work, how cells work, what reactions happen inside cells and so on.
It is Ayurveda that is completely ignorant of how body works and instead uses fictional theories that are obviously false.
They teach modern science in even Ayurveda courses now. Nobody wastes time teaching Ayurveda fiction outside Ayurveda because that would be silly.
Think before you type!!!!
If Ayurveda is spiritual, go practice it in a temple and stop calling these quacks doctors and charging medical fee. Call them priests and not professionals. Work for donations, not fees. You can’t have it both ways.
Heartening to know learned, esteemed economist is routing for Indian way. This is precisely lacked in a lot other who give great idea in western template. This have far reaching efforts on lively hoods of crores of farmers and customers alike.

Very good article. But India need to focus on rejuvenation of Western ghats in kerala, karnataka and maharashtra and Himalayas…because most of herbs grow naturally in these forests and efficacy of herbs are more when they are taken from forests…Ayurveda is a very big industry if modernized only to effect required.. Government’s focus is needed to revive the forests and organic agricultural practices also help in preventing diseases..
Sensible article. If we subject traditional practices to the rigorous cycle of experiment-observation-inference – a lot of claims of efficacy fall by the wayside. There was very little understanding of germs causing diseases more than two centuries ago, so systems of medicines based on theories before that are unlikely to get it right.
Ivesting in research on herbal, low cost and easily accessible remedies is the right thing to do. What is more important to do though is to first accept that we should be ready to reject any form of treatment that contradicts science based medicine. That does away with the distinction between “allopathic” and “alternative ” medicine.
As the saying goes, “Keep an open mind, but not so open that the brain falls off “

The entire science of the Western modern medicine is developed without knowing how a human mind and human body works.
The Western modern medicine is developed for the prime purpose of harvesting huge profit.
The present world order imposed on humanity by the colonial imperial capitalists is based on money and profit.
The Western science is about physical things. The physical things are only a physical manifestation of subtle energy.
The modern science is evidence based and had created a world order of regulations.
Indian spiritual science is the knowledge of People who had realised God.
Ayurveda is part of this spiritual science which cannot come under the regulations of the modern medicine.
The govt of India being under the control of the Western political powers cannot declare Ayurveda as spiritual science.
What a pity.
What nonsense!!!
