Ayurveda is a holistic system of medicine which originated in ancient India more than thousands of years ago. This science is based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body and environment. Ayurveda also contends that each person has a unique mind-body composition or a tailored dosa type. A person remains healthy if its balance is retained, an imbalance causes a lack of harmony and makes a person more susceptible to disease.

The concept of immunity is fundamental to Ayurveda’s approach to health maintenance and disease prevention. Ayurveda’s extensive knowledge base on preventive care, derives from the concepts of daily regimes-Dinacharya and seasonal regimes-Ritucharya to maintain a healthy life. Ayurvedic lifestyle practices has beneficial impact on the immune system.
