How to become a good ayurvedic doctor.

[Guest guest]

Dear Dr Venu Gopal,

Vaidyas or ayrvedic doctors are only as great as the quality of the

herbs they use. Thanks for bringing out a subject very little

discussed in this forum. Declining quality of the formulations due to

mechanised manufacturing is already causing frustration. But more

important is the declining medicine in the herbs due to excessive

demand, exploitation, deforestation and herb species going "rarely

found" as a result. This was the agony which forced to write on

ayurvedic farming. Vaidyas have to become farmers in addition to

pharmacist in future, at least for more widely used herbs.

 

Regards

Dr Bhate

desired effects of the medicine which are described in the texts of

acharyas, from the companies,and in turn there would be some un

wanted efeects also may be faced.
