Ayurveda is a medicine system that is invaluable to Indian heritage and culture. It provides a lot of value with endless accessibility and practicality. Ayurveda is well-known for its individualized treatment plans and emphasis on preventive health.

Further, the article suggests solutions for making Ayurveda more affordable and accessible to people, which includes but is not limited to, various government schemes, integration of Ayurveda with other healthcare systems, research and standardization, community clinics and so on.
Ayurveda has a lot to offer to this world and putting efforts in making it more affordable will benefit the world greatly. Further research may be conducted in order to accomplish the goal of this article in a broader way.
