Innovative Ayurvedic Formulations: Bridging Tradition with Modern Science & Technology
Abstract
Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, offers a rich treasure of time-tested herbal, herbo-mineral and mineral formulations and contains holistic therapeutic principles. With the growing global demand on health care products, there is a persistent need to reassess and reinterpret Ayurvedic formulations through the lens of modern science. This paper explores the development of innovative Ayurvedic formulations that integrate traditional knowledge with modern pharmacological insights, standardization techniques, and clinical validations. It highlights the role of phytochemical profiling, nanotechnology, and synergistic compound optimization in enhancing therapeutic efficacy and bioavailability. By bridging ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with cutting-edge biomedical research, this approach not only reinforces the credibility of Ayurvedic practices but also facilitates their integration into mainstream healthcare systems. The study underscores the potential of such innovations in addressing contemporary health challenges while preserving the philosophical and ecological ethos of Ayurveda.
