FAQ's





Ayurveda is an ancient system of medicine that is perhaps the most logical and coherent approach to health and healing to be found anywhere in the world. It is taught in Sanskrit in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka but many colleges and universities elsewhere teach in their native languages. This includes several educational institutions in both North and South America, the Caribbean, Europe, and other Asian countries like Singapore and Japan.

Ayurveda offers a comprehensive approach to constitutional balance, diet and life style effects on health, as well as detailed understanding of tissue types, abnormalities, and treatments. It also boasts a comprehensive approach to quality of life and longevity.

Sister Sites

Ayurvedic Bazaar was originally part of KitchenDoctor.com and was spun off quite some years ago as a separate site. Then, part was separated and named DoshaBalance.com. There are also several other sister sites that are not as active, such as a Forum on Kaya Kalpa at https://rasayanaherbs.com/.
