Does Ayurveda actually work? If not, why do Ayurvedic doctors say it works?

Off-course ayurvedic medicine works. Ayurveda has been into practice for thousand of years. Ayurvedic medicine is a systematic approach to health and wellness of an individual. It not only treats the symptoms of illness but also determines to eliminate the root cause. Ayurveda believes that disharmony between body, mind and soul causes illness. All illness is said to arise from poor metabolism. Thus ayurveda deals any disease by detoxifying the body and rejuvenating body, mind and spirit.
