I spent about an hour last night
researching a new medical code, or document that I found to be very
interesting. I stumbled upon it after following up on a comment made by rem. He
wanted me to look into Ayurveda. Here is what I found.
After looking up the Wikipedia
article I spent some time on the library's database searching for articles and
sources for the Ayurveda and I came up with some interesting facts that might
help with the thought process behind the type of research that I want to do.
The first thing I came across was
a stat behind how many people practice the Ayurveda.
According to the Britannica
Encyclopedia 80% of the Indian population practices the Ayurveda.
That seems like a very high percentage and some of the studies that have
gone into the medical methodology seem to be ambiguous at best. I feel like if
I were to parallel the use of modern medical perception next to a more traditional
method and see what people do in regards the their health to stay health might
be a good direction to go into for a more specific project.
