The Indian system of Ayurvedic is based on flora and fauna and the environment, due to two main factors.

Yet it is only recently that Ayurveda is being accorded its due and that too gradually.

The colonial powers, in their desire to promote western medicine totally neglected Ayurveda and deliberately attempted to condemn it as an outdated concept.
