Ayurveda (Devanāgarī: आयुर्वेद, the 'science of life') is a system of traditional medicine native to India and practiced in other parts of the world as a form of alternative medicine. Ayurveda describes that each person has physical and mental constitution. In other words everyone is born with a unique nature or personality. In order to maintain good health, it is important to maintain this "original" prakriti or nature. This is done by eating foods and performing activities that are in harmony with our nature. Thus a state of natural balance is maintained at physical, psychological and spiritual level. However, a disturbance in the state of natural balance leads to damages in the natural set of body even at the minute level including the genes.
