Ayurveda: The World's First Precision Medicine

The millennia-old concept of Prakriti—the unique, fixed constitutional blueprint of an individual—stands as the unshakeable bedrock of personalized treatment within Ayurveda. For thousands of years, dedicated practitioners meticulously relied on subtle observation, sophisticated pulse diagnosis (Nadi Pariksha), and detailed constitutional questionnaires to accurately classify a person as primarily Vata, Pitta, or Kapha. This qualitative classification was the entire basis for prescriptive healing. Today, at Sree Kayakalpa Ayurgenomics, we are not only validating this system but are providing the definitive, measurable, scientific proof that each of us carries a genetic code that perfectly mirrors this Ayurvedic concept of Prakriti. We assert that the depth and personalization of this ancient system mean that Ayurveda was, in essence, practicing the world’s first and most enduring form of precision or genomic medicine.
