Why people hate Ayurveda?

I don’t think Ayurveda is bad or anything. There are certain ayurvedic drugs are quite useful and better alternative.
It’s just that Allopathy offers quick relief, probably that’s why people opt for it. But,S”many Indians still prefer Ayurveda and it’s quite famous alternative among elderly.

I am sure every Indian wants Ayurveda to succeed and be a stellar. For this, a lot of validation of Ayurveda principles, therapirs and medications must happen with modern scientific tools. In other words, Ayurveda research with modern scientific principles has to be done and brought to the knowledge of public. I am not saying research is not happening. Once result of such research are scientifically validated, everyone will accept.
Govt of India and state governments can give impetus to the research by allocating more funds.

That is so sad to hear
It might be mainly due to incomplete information and misconceptions.

I hear this a lot too and honestly, it’s a bit unfair. A lot of people see Ayurveda as ‘old-fashioned’ or just about herbs, so they think it’s not real medicine. But the truth is, Ayurveda has been around for thousands of years and has helped many people with natural and holistic healing.

It’s just that modern medicine is more visible and widely accepted, so sometimes people don’t understand how deep and serious Ayurveda really is. The best way to change this is by showing results and spreading awareness, one step at a time.

Yes, as I am an ayurveda student I must say ,yes ayurveda lacks scientific proofs and not all practitioner accept that. But the young ayurvedic practitioner are changing that!! There are some methods of treatment mentioned which even I find so irrelevant but at that time there were no available resource so they threat the patients with the help of resource avaliable at that time. And so they write as it was. But now its our responsibility that we should understand the motto ,sadly due to some very stubborn ayurved practitioner the ayurved get blamed.
