Therapeutic Potential of Ayurvedic Practices for the Mental Health of the Geriatric Population: A Personalized Ayurvedic Protocol
Abstract
Drastic population ageing points to increased prevalence of physical and mental disorders in the elderly. Mental illnesses of the elderly are often related to biological and psychosocial risk elements which can be predicted and prevented using Ayurvedic diagnostic tools such as Dosha and Prakriti. This chapter presents a hypothetical personalised model to preserve the mental health of geriatric population w.s.r to dietary and lifestyle modifications. This section also explores the translational research outlook and evidence-based perspectives of Rasayana drugs, and Panchakarma procedures in most prevalent and distressing psychological disorders such as anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorders, insomnia, psychological imbalances inherent to mood disorders, psychotic diseases, neuro-degenerative disorders, etc.
