0 - Default Title
Description
Ayurveda for De-Addiction or Substance Abuse Disorders presents a comprehensive yet accessible exploration of how traditional Ayurvedic wisdom can support recovery from Substance Use Disorders (SUD), a growing global health challenge. SUD affects cognitive, behavioural, and social functioning, and despite the progress of modern medicine, relapse rates remain high. This book bridges contemporary understanding with ancient knowledge, offering an integrated view of addiction and its management. Drawing from classical Ayurvedic sources such as Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Bhavaprakasha, along with modern biomedical research indexed in PubMed, Scopus, and Elsevier, the book explains the conceptual foundations, classifications, and therapeutic approaches to addiction in Ayurveda. It outlines how addictive substances-described as Madakari Dravya-influence the Doshas and mind, with detailed insights on Madya (alcohol), Bhanga (cannabis), Ahiphena (opium), and other substances. The text highlights proven Ayurvedic interventions including Panchakarma for detoxification, Rasayana for rejuvenation, and Sattvavajaya Chikitsa for mental resilience. It also introduces herbal formulations with anti-addictive potential that aid withdrawal and prevent relapse. By integrating holistic Ayurvedic therapies with contemporary de-addiction strategies, this book offers a promising framework for long-term recovery. It serves as a practical guide for students, clinicians, and anyone seeking natural, sustainable approaches to overcoming addiction.
