Siddha pharmacology
Siddha pharmacology is a traditional Indian system of medicine that originates from the Tamil cultural region. It focuses on using natural substances like herbs, minerals, and animal products to create medicines aimed at maintaining health and treating diseases. Siddha practitioners believe in balancing body energies and addressing the root causes of illness rather than just symptoms. Remedies are often personalized, taking into account an individual’s unique constitution and specific conditions, emphasizing holistic care. This practice integrates spiritual and physical well-being, with an understanding of how lifestyle and environment impact health.
