Case studies on prophylactic ayurvedic therapy in migraine patients

Case studies on prophylactic ayurvedic therapy in migraine patients

Ayurvedic treatment has shown effectiveness in managing migraines. A protocol (ATP) with herbo-mineral formulations, regular meals, and sleep reduced migraine frequency and intensity in a study of nine patients.

Observational research on the effect of an Ayurvedic treatment protocol in patients of hereditary pancreatitis

Observational research on the effect of an Ayurvedic treatment protocol in patients of hereditary pancreatitis

Hereditary pancreatitis (HP) is a chronic genetic disorder with limited treatment options. This study evaluated the efficacy of a year-long Ayurvedic Treatment Protocol (ATP) in 151 patients, 88 of whom completed the program. The treatment included Ayurvedic formulations, dietary adjustments, and discontinuation of pancreatic enzymes. Results showed a 92.8% reduction in attack frequency and a 98.7% decrease in hospitalizations (p < 0.0001), with no adverse effects. ATP demonstrated safety and effectiveness in managing HP, suggesting the need for further research.

Changing Demography of Pancreatitis Patients in India -A Hospital Based Study

Pancreatitis is rising globally, with major risk factors including alcohol, tobacco, and family history. A study of 800 patients in North India found higher incidences among non-alcoholic, non-tobacco users, and those with no family history. The disease mostly affected men (4.6:1) aged 19-45, particularly in the service class and students. Further research is needed to explore its causes and extent in the region.

Transformation of Copper into therapeutic mineral complex following principles of Rasa Shastra

Transformation of Copper into therapeutic mineral complex following principles of Rasa Shastra

Rasa Shastra, an Ayurvedic branch, transforms toxic substances into safe therapeutics. A compound using Copper, Mercury, Sulphur, Luffa echinata, Clitoria ternatea, and lemon juice was effective in treating pancreatic disorders. The 2015-17 study developed standard procedures and analyzed the compound, revealing new mineral forms and no free metals. This demonstrates the potential of traditional methods in safely converting metals into effective treatments.
