The word "Ayurveda" is a compound of ayus "life" and veda "knowledge", and roughly translates as the "Science of Life". Ayurveda deals with the measures of healthy living, along with therapeutic measures that relate to physical, mental, social and spiritual harmony. Reenita Malholtra gives the reader the keys to understanding Ayurveda and its application to modern medicine. She introduces the concepts of Nidana: an understanding of diagnostic measures undertaken by an Ayurvedic health care provider; Ahar: understanding that food is a primary source of preventative medicine, and Chikitsa: the Ayurvedic therapeutics available through self care or commercially.
