āyurveda (T. tshe’i rig byed ཚེའི་རིག་བྱེད། [alt. shes pa ཤེས་པ།]; C. āyóu 阿由).[1][2] The classical system of Indian medicine that is widely practiced in Asia.[1]
This system emphasizes balance in bodily systems and uses diet, herbal treatment, and yogic breathing.[3]
Ayurveda originated in India perhaps as much as 3,000 years ago. Today it remains a favoured form of health care in large parts of the Eastern world, especially in India, where a large percentage of the population uses this system exclusively or combined with modern medicine.[4]
