Ayurveda emphasizes disease prevention through balanced diet, daily routines (Dinacharya), seasonal regimens (Ritucharya), and herbal supplements. It focuses on strengthening immunity, improving digestion, and reducing stress to maintain long-term health.

Ayurveda follows a holistic approach, treating the root cause of diseases through natural remedies, herbal medicines, and lifestyle modifications.
