Any one know about it? Looks sorta bogus to me.
bump to that. need to add Curcumin. helps with a plethora of illnesses and ailments.There is a lot of good research on ayurvedic herbs like ashwagandha, bacopa, etc.
NOT bogus.
Bogus?? :hammer: What's bogus about medicines which are almost always 100% natural? Even if they dont work for you in the very least you will not have any side-affects. Of course it goes without saying that this has been in use in India, and that part of the world for thousands of years.Any one know about? Looks sorta bogus to me.
been using it for thousands of years in india. bogus? no.
Then you are approaching this issue all wrong. You will have to ask yourself if faith comes first or science(in this case Ayurveda). You can find ample articles on web about how old Ayurveda is..and that may very well be in conflict with Torah. However just as it is not fair for Ayurveda beleiver to call Torah bogus surely you can extend the same courtsey to Ayurveda..no?I am Jewish I believe in the Torah. They claim ayurvedic medicine is over 5000 years old which means it would be older than the Torah. Since I believe in the Torah it would be contradictory. Since the Torah is not as old as this ayurvedic medicine and yet the most highly respected oldest belief and most well documented I wonder. I believe in herbs by all means. I take some of the herbs mentioned in this thread.
Yep!Most herbal products on the market have roots in Ayurveda. Not bogus in the slightest.
Is this meant as a joke?Ayuvedic, traditional Chinese medicine, and other "natural" healing methods ARE bunk in the sense that they don't understand the real reasons for herbal products working. They explain it with energy channels, elements and other BS instead of the real science.
It doesn't mean the herbals don't work, it just means the philosophy is total bunk.

I say this in the most non-inflammatory way possible - what the **** are you talking about?Since I believe in GOD and GOD created every thing In this case I believe he also created ayurvedic medicine since in the garden of eden it states we were given herbs which would include these ayurvedic herbs too. The people that believe in this belief also believe in buddha and since the writings of buddha came after the christian beliefs which is way after the torah any way it makes me wonder if its really that old.
Thats another of the "enlightened" thoughts from someone who is absolutely clueless about Ancient History.Ayuvedic, traditional Chinese medicine, and other "natural" healing methods ARE bunk in the sense that they don't understand the real reasons for herbal products working. They explain it with energy channels, elements and other BS instead of the real science.

Look man now you are being plain dumb. You have all the reason in the world not to use Ayurveda medicine, or beleive in anything prior to Torah(yes please go ahead and forget the Pyramids and Stonehenge while we are at it) but if you call Ayurveda as superstition then you are been plain dumb.Exactly what I am thinking. Ayurvedic medcine may have been around for 1000's of years but superstition has also been around for 1000's of years. I think herbs with science rational behind the herb is okay. Look at kavakava very popular yet the FDA says its a nono. I take herbs but based on science not because its been around for 1000's of years and thats the only reason.
I fail to see the relation between your subjective religious beliefs, and the physiological capacity of medicinal herbs?I believe in herbs 100% and I use them every day but I believe the higher power created them not indians and buddha and his beliefs but in Indian Jewish people of the time. I don't believe in buddha being the Messiah. Nor do I believe that hare Krishna was the messiah or people who think they were the 1st.
Then maybe you need to start reading about history and other cultures.I believe in herbs 100% and I use them every day but I believe the higher power created them not indians and buddha and his beliefs but in Indian Jewish people of the time. I don't believe in buddha being the Messiah. Nor do I believe that hare Krishna was the messiah or people who think they were the 1st.
So what's your point?Got this in my email.
We know that the Fo-pen-hing [legends of Buddha] was -translated into Chinese from Sanskrit (the ancient language of Hindostan) so early as the eleventh
.....
I doubt he can form a comprehensive response beyond some random copy and paste.So what's your point?
You just plugged it! :run:... can somebody tell me if there was a plug for Shackley vitamins yet? ...
Eh, quantum theory and other similar science sort of does validate energy channels and similar "BS" as you call it.Ayuvedic, traditional Chinese medicine, and other "natural" healing methods ARE bunk in the sense that they don't understand the real reasons for herbal products working. They explain it with energy channels, elements and other BS instead of the real science.

I use that stuff, when I remember, as well.Bogus?? :hammer: What's bogus about medicines which are almost always 100% natural? Even if they dont work for you in the very least you will not have any side-affects.

An experience of mine. I personally used to have running nose, caught cold every 2 weeks when I was 16 or so. Then I ate the following religiously for 2 odd years, a spoonful a day. It is more than a decade but I have never had any cold/allergy.
For people with seasonal allergies I would recommend it greatly. You can find it online or in most local Indian stores.
I am a skeptic of anything you say from now on....did this happen to you in Jedi training camp?:006:Eh, quantum theory and other similar science sort of does validate energy channels and similar "BS" as you call it.
If you can ever find a real master of ki/chi, I cannot say it will erase your doubts but there is something to be said about an old guy who can hit you from ten feet away without touching you,
I was a skeptic before that experience.
very effective for a variety of things.Bogus?? :hammer: What's bogus about medicines which are almost always 100% natural?

Ashwagandha being good for sleep.^^ Easier said than done.
I'm just taking some potent (6-year root type quality) ginseng now. If you could isolate the active ingredient of ginseng there would be $$$ to be made as a prescription drug for a whole range of conditions. No-one has ever managed it. I've tried the 80% ginseng extracts ... ain't as good as the real stuff.
AX might have pulled it off in Slim Xtreme - I can't remember if it felt ginseng like - or else they have used a borderline legal amphetamine type compound. PP - Eric has a photo where they are extracting from ginseng. To my knowledge no-one has really managed to concerntrate the active ingredients to mimic the real stuff.
Thats only the start of the process to purifying a specific compound.
Phytopharm tried this with Hoodia in collaboration with Phizer (a big company) for a slimming drug (okay this is African not Indian). They couldn't do it.
Yeah I can see why USP are keen on defending Indian medicine. There product range is massively dependent on it - Prime, PowerFull... although APump I dunno.
Having said all that according to the wiki a number of companies are trying to obtain compounds from ashwagandha. Thats adaptogen I need to try - suppose to be good for sleep.
