"More than 6000 years old" - fact or fiction?
What do secular historians say to the claim that Ayurveda is 6000 years old? Fact or fiction? -- 84.57.16.157 12:51, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
humours?????
humours?????
I am not an expert of ayurveda... that is why I want to place a comment. What is the meaning of the word "humours" in the sentence: "but the formal doctrines of the three humours and other key ayurvedic ideas are first mentioned in the Buddhist Canonical literature."
Probably someone made a change.
