Description

Ayurveda, India’s ancient system of healing, defines good health not by the absence of disease, but the presence of physical, mental, and spiritual wellness. Integrative medicine, a modern holistic medical discipline, views health through the patient’s physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual, and environmental influences. Are these systems complementary? What role do they play in cultivating good health? How can ancient practices be combined with modern medicine to help build immunity? Dr. Palanisamy approach blends the best of conventional medicine and complementary medicine, such as Ayurveda, the time-tested traditional medical system of India. He’s worked with thousands of patients to help them heal and recover. Dr. Palanisamy is also the author of The Paleovedic Diet, a book offering a comprehensive roadmap to optimal health combining the most effective aspects of the Paleo diet with Ayurveda and the latest scientific research.View Dr. Palanisamy's slide presentation used in the original live webinar.
