#trend #century #people #alternative #ayurveda #homeopathy #allopathic #medicine #approach
In
this
 modern era, many of the habits of humans have changed to a certain extent.
this
 included diverting to homoeopathy and ayurvedic
medicine
 from
allopathic
. There are a plethora of benefits and drawbacks of it which I will be discussed in
this
 essay with proper examples and explanations. On the one side, the main advantage of ayurvedic and homoeopathy
medicine
 is that it has fewer side effects on the other parts of the body.
This
 would result in only treating the disease without damaging other organs. As result, human life expectancy increases to a certain level.
On the contrary
, one of the major drawbacks is that it acts slowly so that recovery from disease takes much longer time compared to
allopathic
medicine
.
On the other hand
,
allopathic
medicine
 has lots of instant advantages.
First
 of all, it acts fast, so that people recover before expectations though its effects do not
last
 long and the person needs to go under another treatment within a few days.
Last
 but not the least, it will be available in the market easily if people have enough money to buy it.
However
,
this
 may damage other organs very quickly as it has many adverse effects on the other parts of the body. In conclusion, both medicines have their own way of treating patients.
allopathic
 way of treatment is good when a person wants to recover instantly, while Ayurveda and homoeopathy are good when you do not want to hurt your other organs. In my suggestion, people who have taken home or ayurvedic
medicine
 have taken good decisions in their life.
