Internal insanitation is the basic cause of all diseases, ranging from the common cold to the dreaded cancer. Disease is, in reality, a diminution in the health level, and cure lies in the restoration of health, and in the removal of the cause of disease.

An ancient science of medicine, ayurveda has postulated some of the best principles for maintaining and preserving health. It lays down certain rules, not only for healthy living but also for hygiene -- a key requisite for health. The characteristic pressures of the modern age are bound to lead to deviations from the safe routines of diet and habit, and so, to imbalances of health. To those suffering on account of these, ayurveda provides relief. This book will be valuable for general readers as it contains matter related to the prevention of disease and protection of health. Also included in the book are various asanas, which help to maintain health and cure common disorders.

The value of yoga and nature-cure techniques for maintaining and preserving health is now recognised not only by therapists but also by patients. Yoga keeps the body healthy and the mind alert. It has a relaxing effect on the practitioner, and in combination with nature cure, it can become the ideal healing method. This book shows how health can be maintained and improved through yoga and how diseases can be cured through natural methods.
