3. Introduction
• This is my own dream to present a topic like
this, which is an Eco friendly one.
• Ayurveda is a life science which treats and
prevents the diseases with the products of
environment.
• So Ayurveda will survive till the Environment
exists. We can also say like this Environment
will be Sustained till Ayurveda exist.
• How can Ayurveda…..

4. Forestation
• Ayurveda is the major system of medicine
which use small shrubs to big trees for various
purposes.
• To that Ayurvedics follow certain guide lines
for collection and cultivation.
• So to gain the herbal medicine Ayurvedics do
forestation and cultivation.
• Utilization of drug as a whole rather than
Extraction makes low utilization of plants,
which is also good thing to keep the earth
green.

5. Biodegradable
• The Hospital wastes of Ayurveda are almost
biodegradable.
• The medicines are of Herbal or Mineral or a
mixture of both which are easy to dispose in
to the earth after their expiry.
• The pharmaceutical waste of Ayurveda is also
biodegradable and some of them are good
manure for cultivation.
• The plastic and other artificial materials not
used for treatment makes Ayurveda an Eco
friendly system.

6. Animal conservation
• Animal products are used for various purposes
in Ayurveda.
• To do so Ayurvedics maintain animal
conservation .
• The products used from animals are milk,
hoofs, hair, horns etc. mostly no need to kill
the animal.
• The above point is clearly mentioned for two
purposes to give relief to the animal lovers
and to protect the word conservation.

7. Detoxifying techniques
• Ayurveda specified certain plants having this
Detoxifying nature.
• By using these plants we can detoxify a
poisoned man as well as a poisoned
Environment(water , air , soil etc).
• Detoxification means a lot, its not simply
sense poisoned is detoxified.
• Eg: fluorosis is like a poisoning which effects
people of Nalgonda a lot which is answered
by Ocimum (Tulsi )plant.

8. Techniques for optimum consumption
• In Ayurvedic system each and every part of
the environment given importance.
• Which makes the utilization of natural
resources from Daily usage to the Drug.
• Eg: Neem- plant is used for
Twigs-tooth brushing and tongue cleaning.
Leaves-for medicating the bathing water.
Seed oil –for external application over scalp for
healthy hair etc.

9. Eco friendly attitude
• Ayurveda treat a Human-Plant-Animal a like..
• The evidence for this is Ayurveda for Humans ,
Vriksha Ayurveda for Plants, Pasu Ayurveda
For Animals.
• Atmavat sarva bhutani- Bhuta daya-these are
the basic values taught by Ayurveda.
• Yagna-japa-homa-bali etc are included in the
treatments of Ayurveda which are having their
direct effect on Environment as well as
wellbeing of individual.

10. Conclusion
• Ayurveda not only taught us to live healthy , it
also taught us to love nature and live with
nature.
• Love Ayurveda - Live Ayurveda –Give life to
Environment.
• Wandering for a planet with life is mear waste
of time With out changing our life style..
