Ayurveda Ayurveda is a 5000 year old 'life science' developed in India. It is the root of all homeopathic medicines. Ayurveda sees all individuals as unique beings made up of the five elements which are based in three 'doshas' or body types. These doshas are 'vata', 'pitta' and 'kapha'. Each of the three doshas have certain quantity, qualities, and functions. When all of these are balanced, it is called normal or balanced. This condition is conducive to well-being, health, and wellness. However, this balanced state is not stable; it is always changing. The Doshas will become either increased or decreased. Both of these states lead to ill-health or disease. One of the many ways to bring your dosha back into balance is through food and herbs.
