Title : Integrating Ayurveda into Preventive Cardiology and Heart Disease Management

The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has significantly increased in recent years due to environmental changes, heavy diets, and lifestyle modifications. As a result, the term "hridroga," which refers to heart-related conditions in Ayurveda, has grown in popularity. Heart attacks, peripheral artery disease, rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease, heart failure, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and cerebrovascular diseases like stroke are all included in the broad category of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). According to Ayurveda, imbalances in the three doshas are the main cause of heart-related illnesses, and treating CVDs involves a difficult task of reestablishing their equilibrium. Throughout history, herbal treatments have been an essential part of human healthcare, with many traditional medical systems using them to treat a wide range of illnesses.One of the oldest and most well-known traditional medical systems in the world is Ayurveda. Through interventions pertaining to diet (Ahara), lifestyle (Vihara), seasonal routines (Ritucharya), yoga, everyday routines (Dinacharya), and rejuvenation therapies (Rasayana), this review paper examines the critical role Ayurveda plays in preventing, controlling, and evaluating CVDs. The study clarifies how Ayurveda's all-encompassing method tackles the underlying causes of CVDs and provides insightful information about lifestyle changes, herbal remedies, and preventative measures. This review attempts to offer a thorough perspective on the potential of Ayurveda in addressing the growing prevalence of cardiovascular problems in contemporary society by combining traditional wisdom with current scientific understanding.
