We have respect to it as it is a science. But, the Ayurveda can be traced to thousands of years and is present in Indian civilisation since the origin of plants (medicinal and herbal) on earth. It is not only Ayurveda, but the agricultural system, space science, economic science, all existed in ancient India,” he said. <br /><br />Every Indian should be proud of their culture and heritage. The Ayurveda can cure many diseases and disorders like hypertension, sugar, rheumatic arthritis, thyroid and kidney problems. <br /><br />Cure ailments<br /><br />The modern medicine cannot offer permanent solution to all these problems.
