It is wrong to presume that Ayurveda is alternative to anything else. Ayurveda is probably the only holistic medical system in the world that deals not only with the sick and ailing but takes care of the healthy too. Ayurveda also aims to create a healthy, happy and peaceful society. How can anything so extensive be termed alternative?
