It may promote harmony between the body and mind. This traditional Indian health method suggests diet and lifestyle habits based on each individual's constitution, aiming to maintain health by utilizing the power of nature. It can also have beneficial effects for many people, such as reducing stress, improving immunity, and improving digestion.

According to Ayurveda, it is said that anti-aging and rejuvenation are possible by restoring balance between the body and mind. To do this, a cleansing therapy called "panchakarma" is often performed to bring new energy into the body by combining various techniques such as herbs, diet therapy, yoga, and meditation.

In this way, the benefits of Ayurveda are not just for beauty, but emphasize a holistic approach that aims for health from the inside. Therefore, even in modern society, the ancient wisdom represented by Ayurveda brings new vitality and happiness to many people.

Ayurveda originated in India over 3,000 years ago. The term Ayurveda is derived from the Sanskrit words ayur (life) and veda (science or knowledge). Ayurveda therefore translates as "knowledge of life" or "science of life." Ayurveda is a compilation of the medicinal parts of the Atharvaveda, the fourth of the four Vedas.

Atharvaveda is the fourth of the four sacred Vedas of Hinduism. Atharvaveda is also called Brahmaveda and contains mantras (sacred sayings) in praise of the gods, medicine, science, philosophy (geopolitics, magic, divination), etc. Ayurveda was believed because Atharvaveda describes many types of medical methods (theology, drug use, disease prevention, naturopathy, magic, etc.).
