摘要
Naturopathy is a traditional health care science having its own concepts of health and healing rooting through nature.It is a non-pharmacological system of health care which derives its disease causing and health keeping principles from fundamental natural elements(Panchamahabhutas)viz.Prithvi,Jala,Vayu,Agni,and Akash.The imbalance among these five elements individually or in respect to others creates disease and in turn also forms the basis of healing if such imbalances are corrected.This paper reviews the simple concepts of naturopathy referring to health and disease and contextualises them to the on-going pandemic which has affected the entire world.An extensive manual and digital search of the relevant literature was done related to naturopathy in order to compile the review.This review is important from the perspectives that in the current pandemic the cure is still not evident from any corner of the world and from any system of medicine.Therefore such simple health keeping strategies from naturopathy seem to be of much relevance.
