Method & safety

Ayurkosha is an educational library. It reports what traditional texts say, not medical advice. Many classical procedures need a trained practitioner, and some plants and preparations are unsafe. Talk to a qualified professional before using any remedy, especially during pregnancy, for children or alongside other medicines.
