Natural herbs

Natural herbs are the main materials used by human beings to treat various diseases since ancient times. In China, Shennong Materia Medica was collected and compiled into a book by physicians in the Warring States, Qin and Han Dynasties long ago. As one of the cradles of ancient civilization, India is also one of the first countries to use herbs in the world. Ayurveda and China's herbalism have the same effect, which not only emphasizes the pursuit of physical, mental and spiritual health to prevent diseases, but also widely uses herbs.

At the beginning of 2003, when SARS was raging in Singapore, one street spread to another. Some traditional Indian herbs and spices, such as tulip root (also known as turmeric), sweet basil (also known as nine-story pagoda) and neem tree, have the functions of sterilization and treatment of fever and cough, so the sales of traditional herbs in some spice shops in Little India increased during that period.

Ayurvedic medicine believes that when the balance of the body is disturbed, the correct combination of food and herbs can make the body reach a proper balance.

medical system

India's medical system includes Ayurvedic medicine and Siddhartha medicine. It is considered as the oldest medical system in the world. For more than 5000 years, it has been used in countless traditional Indian families. Its influence affects almost all medical systems in the northern and southern hemispheres, so Ayurveda in India is known as the "mother of medical care". As can be seen from the early literature, Ayurveda doctors have prophetic views on the powerful medical characteristics of plants, which can be said to be the originator of modern pharmacology. They are also very familiar with the operation in the body, and there is even evidence that Ayurveda doctors have performed human surgery. In addition, this system has always emphasized the importance of diet and spirituality, and Ayurveda can be seen in the traditional Chinese medicine in China and the medical methods of Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine.

Historically, the records of Ayurveda first appeared in the ancient Indian poetry collection Rigveda in 6000 BC. From 3000 BC to 2000 BC, Atapo, one of the four vedic classics, came out, among which Ayurveda, as a supplement to the vedic classics, was attached to Atapo Veda.

Although Ayurvedic medicine has been applied to practice for a long time, it has not been compiled into a book by oral tradition until now and has become an independent science.
