I have read on the internet about treating DS with a type of Indian medicine called Ayurvedic therapy. Is there any evidence that this can help children with DS?
Not at the present time. To quote Drs. Lodha and Bragga of the Dept of Pediatrics, All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi: “Evidence-based studies on the efficacy and safety of traditional Indian medicines are limited. The essential ingredient in most formulations is not precisely defined.
