Long Covid cure? Researchers to trial traditional Indian herb treatment

The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine will work with the All India Institute of Ayurveda to determine whether a traditional Indian herb can help people recover from long Covid.

Ashwagandha, commonly known as Indian winter cherry, is traditionally used in the Indian Ayurvedic system of medicine to boost energy, reduce stress and strengthen the immune system.

Experts said recent trials had proven the herb’s efficacy in reducing anxiety, stress, improving muscle strength and reducing fatigue symptoms in patients with chronic diseases.

Long Covid patients can suffer from cognitive dysfunction, poor mental health, extreme fatigue and muscle weakness.

It is estimated these symptoms affect 10 to 20 per cent of Covid survivors and can last for one to three months or longer in many cases.

The study, funded by the Ministry of Ayush of the Government of India, will include a double-blind clinical trial involving 2,000 people living in the UK with long Covid.

Half of the trial participants will take 500mg Ashwagandha tablets twice a day for three months, while the other half will be given a placebo.

Researchers will randomly select participants to have a monthly follow-up of self-reported quality of life, impairment to activities of daily living, mental and physical health symptoms, supplement use and adverse events.

The study is expected to last for over a year.

“Ashwagandha has been shown to reduce symptoms of other conditions that are similar to those of long Covid, so we are hopeful that it will be an effective way to combat the condition,” said Sanjay Kinra, professor in clinical epidemiology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine.

The research is also supported by the UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group on Indian Traditional Sciences and the Traditional Complementary and Integrative Medicine Unit at the World Health Organisation (WHO).

Research is the only way to ensure appropriate integration of traditional medicine knowledge into mainstream medical practice,” said technical officer at WHO Geneva, Geetha Krishnan, who helped to facilitate the research project.

Yoga and Ayurveda maybe effective in the treatment of high-risk cases of COVID-19, suggests a research study by IIT Delhi on successful treatment of 30 high-risk COVID-19 patients. This study was conducted by a team of researchers at IIT Delhi and Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, Haridwar.

The researchers claimed that that high-risk COVID-19 patients undergo severe anxiety, which may further deteriorate their condition. They further suggest that in addition to the treatment for COVID-19, Yoga and Ayurveda maybe instrumental in relieving such patients from anxiety and aid in speedy post-treatment recovery.

The findings of the study have appeared in the Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge. The research team consists of Dr Sumitra A Bentur, Private practitioner, Greater Noida (West), Uttar Pradesh, Dr Alka Mishra, Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, Haridwar, Uttarakhand; Dr Yogish Kumar, Advait Clinic, Delhi, Dr Sonika Thakral, IIT Delhi, Sanjiv, IIT Delhi and Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies, University of Delhi, Prof Rahul Garg, IIT Delhi.

As per the institute, the patients were prescribed Ayurvedic medicines through telemedicine, and administered a personalized therapeutic yoga programme using video conferencing. Almost all the patients were classified as high-risk owing to one or more of co-morbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, coronary artery disease (which are known to lead to severe outcomes in cases of COVID-19), and/or age above 60, said IIT Delhi.

“The treatment given to the patients was personalized (in accordance with the classical texts) and took account of each patient’s medical history and the symptoms presented, which made it more effective as compared to a fixed standardized treatment plan," said the IIT.

The treatment included ayurvedic medicines, daily yoga-sessions including deep relaxation techniques, pranayama and basic asanas and some lifestyle modifications. Based on the administered treatment, the cases were categorized into YAS (Yoga-Ayurveda based treatment, with possibly allopathic supplements: 4 patients), YASP (Yoga-Ayurveda based treatment, with possibly allopathic supplements and paracetamol: 6 patients), YAM (Yoga-Ayurveda based treatment, and Modern Western Medicine (MWM), that is, allopathy as adjunct: 6 patients), MYA (first tried MWM, later switched to Yoga-Ayurveda: 14 patients). added the institute.

The patients, most of whom presented with many symptoms prior to the yoga and Ayurveda treatment, were followed-up telephonically regularly until recovery. More than half of symptomatic patients started improving within 5 days (90 per cent within 9 days), more than 60 per cent reported at least 90 per cent recovery within 10 days, added IIT Delhi.

Six patients with oxygen saturation (SpO2) below 95 per cent, benefited through Makarasana and Shithilasana; none progressed to composite endpoints (consisting of admission to Intensive Care Unit, invasive ventilation or death). Considering that approximately 19.3 per cent of the patients with these comorbidities progress to composite end points, the p-value was found to be 7.21 x 10−3.

“The study also demonstrates an urgent need to scientifically examine the Traditional Indian Knowledge systems at the top academic institutions. A timely and suitably designed randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of Ayurveda and Yoga based personalized integrative treatment for COVID-19 would have equipped the people with much more credible and dependable information about their use in managing COVID-19" said Prof Rahul Garg, IIT Delhi, who conceptualized the project.

“Most patients reported that the therapy had a profound impact on their recovery process, with many experiencing improvements with respect to their comorbidities too. By the end of the treatment, several patients had decided to adopt Yoga in their lifestyle, and several turned to the Ayurveda doctors in the team for management/treatment of their comorbidities", said Dr Sonika Thakral who coordinated with the patients for routine follow-up.

“On the whole, the belief of the patients in the efficacy of these traditional systems of medicine was extremely enhanced," said Dr Alka Mishra who administered Ayurveda treatment to some patients. “We are observing an increasing trend towards ancient systems of medicine", said Dr Yogesh Kumar who also administered Ayurveda treatment to some patients.

“The said interventions are believed to have collectively accelerated the recovery process by checking anxiety, instilling peace of mind and enhancing the overall well-being of the patients," said Dr Sumitra A Bentur, private practitioner, who designed the Yoga intervention and conducted Yoga sessions for some of the patients.

Researchers claim 400 medicinal plants have anti-diabetic properties

X

New Delhi: As a part of its initiatives to reduce the diabetic burden, the scientists have emphasised on exploring the anti-diabetic properties of around 400 medicinal plants to be used in making medicines based on ayurvedic formulations to control type-2 diabetes by reducing sugar level in blood.

According to the researchers from Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER), Puducherry and All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Kalyani, as of now, there are 21 herbal plants, including Vijayasar, Jamun, Cumin, Daruharidra, little gourd, bael, fenugreek, neem, amla, turmeric that have been found to have prominent anti-hyperglycemic action.

Stressing that diabetes cure lies in the nature, the researchers asserted that intensive studies have been done on 21 herbs and in-depth research on at least 400 herbal plants is needed to exhibit their anti-diabetic properties..

As per their research paper, which is published in the World Journal of Diabetes, these medicinal plants have been the basis of many drugs to manage diabetes. The researchers have also cited the example of BGR-34, a herbal formulation developed by the

Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), which has been used to manage diabetes.

The herbal drug BGR-34 contains not one, but many active compounds derived from four medicinal herbs daruharidra, gudmar, methi and vijayasar. Apart from this, giloe and majeeth have also been added to increase immunity as well as antioxidants levels, said Dr Sanchit Sharma, executive director, AIMIL Pharmaceuticals.

The study titled “Treatment on Nature’s lap: Use of Herbal Products in the Management of Hyperglycemia” stated

that although partial research conducted on eight plants, including pomegranate, shilajit, bean, tea, ginkgo biloba, and saffron demonstrate anti-diabetic properties,

it emphasised the need for further trials.

A recent study conducted by AIIMS Delhi revealed that BGR-34, an Ayurvedic medicine, not only helps in reducing sugar levels but also addresses obesity.

The researchers also noted that several allopathic drugs used in diabetes management have their origins in herbal remedies.

For instance, metformin, a widely prescribed medication, is derived from the Galega officinalis plant, which

was historically used to treat diabetes in 19th century Europe.

Ashwagandha improves sleep quality

Title:

Content: Ashwagandha leaf extract is derived from the Withania somnifera plant and is thought to have an array of benefits. You’ve probably seen it in your local health store in pill form but understanding a compound that is difficult to pronounce might have you baffled as to the benefits.

That said, ashwagandha is a mainstay of many people’s lifestyle, and potentially with great reason. M&F takes a closer look at some of the current research around this exciting substance.

Ashwagandha is not an easy word to pronounce, but you probably also know this compound by the name ‘Indian Ginseng.’ It’s usage dates back more than 3,000 years, and even in this modern era, we are learning that some of those obscure plants used back in the day may be legit. Science seems to agree: in conventional medicine categorization, ashwagandha is labeled as an adaptogen, meaning that it is a naturally occurring substance that may help to rejuvenate the body. While there are a bunch of unfounded claims that are made by marketers for all types of modern supplements, here are five things we know about the awesomeness of ashwagandha.

Improved Sleep Quality (and Quantity)

A systematic review of ashwagandha dosed between 120mg and 600mg per day found that not only did participants fall asleep faster, but they had less waking events and their perceived sleep quality improved as well, meaning that the individuals taking ashwagandha likely felt better refreshed to tackle the day ahead. According to research, ashwagandha affects receptors of the neurotransmitter; GABA, and this would explain why it might be so good at promoting some shuteye. It is important to note however, that most studies have been carried out on otherwise healthy people. Work to determine whether if it is a suitable treatment for those with insomnia is currently ongoing.

Ashwagandha Contains Anti-Stress/Anxiety Compounds

The active ingredients in ashwagandha are known as ‘withanolides’. These are naturally occurring compounds that are thought improve our mental health. Reviews have found that ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) “exhibited noteworthy anti-stress and anti-anxiety activity in animal and human studies.” Results have also shown that ashwagandha may alleviate cases of depression, too. It is thought that the leaf extract modulates pathways in the brain, leading to overall better mental wellbeing.

Increased Testosterone & Sex Hormone Levels

A study conducted in 2015 found that men supplementing with 300mg of ashwagandha root twice per day had increased testosterone levels by an average 96.2 nanograms per deciliter, much higher than the placebo group of 18 ng/dL. Additional studies on infertile men have also found that 5g of ashwagandha root powder daily for 3 months showed increased levels of sex hormones such as luteinizing hormone, and a higher sperm count to boot. Numerous other studies all support ashwagandha’s ability to increase levels of testosterone and fertility. 600 mg per day for a 12-week period was shown to produce up to 1.7 times increased muscle strength and up to 2.3 times muscle mass.

Reduced Inflammation

Research has found evidence that one of this compound’s many benefits include the fact that it exhibits anti-arthritic, pain-relieving qualities. In both animals and humans, studies have shown decreased swelling, a slower degradation of skeletal joints, less pain, and overall better mobility among patients that supplemented with the leafy stuff. While this type of research is still in the early stages, it does bode well for future applications. Ashwagandha is also showing promising results for those who suffer with osteoarthritis, but there’s more work to be done.

Ashwagandha Isn’t a Fad Product

Unlike many empty supplements that have only bro-science to prop them up, ashwagandha is becoming a tried and tested compound that could benefit your body and mind. As with all changes to your diet and nutrition, it is advisable to seek the advice of a medial professional before making any drastic changes.  For the average person, 500 mg per day seems to be a well-tolerated dosage limit although this will depend on the individual, and any other medications that you may be checking. Always do your research on how a given supplement will interact with your current medication to be on the safe side, but never discount a potentially beneficial compound just because it’s not the latest product on the shelf.

Turmeric: scientific research on its benefits
- Alzheimer 's disease
There is not enough clinical data to say that turmeric is beneficial for Alzheimer ’ s patients.
You may be interested to learn about ways to prevent Alzheimer ’ s.
- Cancer.
The research is very active in this area and awaits the results of several clinical trials.
But researchers believe that the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of curcumin may play a role in preventing and treating cancer.
In vitro studies already indicate that curcumin inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells by acting at various points in their development and promotes the production of enzymes that help the body get rid of cancer cells.
According to epidemiological data, the prevalence of many cancers (colon, breast, prostate and lung) is lower in Asian countries, where much turmeric is consumed.
In addition, several studies in animals exposed to carcinogens indicate that curcumin can prevent many types of cancer (lung, colon, stomach, liver, skin, breast, esophagus, lymphoma, leukemia).
When used alone or in combination with chemotherapy, curcumin (8 g daily) has, in a few cases, stabilized the development of pancreatic cancer.
This effect has also been observed in patients with colorectal cancer.
- Peptic ulcer
Laboratory and animal studies indicate that turmeric has protective effects on the gastric mucosa and can destroy or inhibit the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, which is responsible for most stomach and duodenal ulcers.
- Chronic inflammatory diseases
In India and China, turmeric has been used for a very long time for its anti-inflammatory properties.
Laboratory and animal trials have shown positive results for the treatment of ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis and pancreatitis.
In humans, the data is still incomplete and we will have to wait for the results of several ongoing clinical trials to get a more accurate idea of its effectiveness.
- Arthritis
Compared to traditional anti-inflammatory drugs, curcumin (1200 mg daily) has been shown to be as effective as phenylbutazone in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
As for turmeric, doses of 2 grams per day for 6 weeks produced effects similar to ibuprofen (800 mg per day) in people with osteoporosis.
You may be interested in a natural treatment for osteoporosis.
- Inflammatory bowel diseases
Standard turmeric extract has been used successfully in people with irritable bowel syndrome.
The two doses, equivalent to 72 mg and 144 mg of curcumin per day, were tested, reducing symptoms and improving patient comfort.
Other experiments are underway in America.
- Cardiovascular diseases
Only one study has been done so far to assess whether physical exercise, along with turmeric consumption (150 mg per day in postmenopausal women with left ventricular dysfunction), is appropriate.
The results suggest that turmeric combined with physical exercise significantly reduced body mass, body mass index as well as aortic blood pressure.
Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
- Gingivitis
A randomized study has shown that turmeric mouthwash reduces bacterial contamination as effectively as the mouthwash available in pharmacies.
- Diabetes
Two studies reported a possible protective effect of turmeric at the onset of diabetes.
- High blood lipids
Animal studies suggest that turmeric lowers cholesterol levels, especially the harmful LDL cholesterol.
- Digestive disorders
Committee E and WHO recognize the effectiveness of turmeric root in the treatment of indigestion, that is, digestive disorders, such as stomach pain, nausea, loss of appetite or a feeling of heaviness.

Does India Have Patience, Will And Resources To Build World's Top Cannabis Medicine Industry?

Raghav PriyadarshiUpdated on Mar 27, 2022, 16:03 IST

Consider the size of the opportunity — today’s billion dollar global medical cannabis industry is expected to hit USD 100 billion by 2028. That’s a 100x growth in the next six years.

We’ve missed the bus once — India is the largest producer and exporter of licit opium in the world, contributing over 50% of global volumes. Yet there is not a single Indian firm that is a global leader in manufacturing opioid medications, a USD 40 billion market annually!

Unspash/Representational image

On the back of successful medical cannabis regimes in countries such as Canada, Germany and increasingly the United States, hundreds of thousands of patients are able to access medical cannabis to treat a host of chronic conditions, most of which do not have safe or effective treatment pathways – neuropathic pains such as sciatica, fibromyalgia, and cancer-related pains; rheumatic conditions such as arthritis and multiple sclerosis; neurological conditions such as insomnia, migraine and Parkinson’s; or the ever increasing burden of mental health issues such as anxiety and depression – all conditions in which cannabinoid medicine has demonstrated ground-breaking results.

In this scenario, it is important to remember and highlight that India has the oldest medical cannabis regime in the world – in the form of Ayurveda – which records over 200 classical cannabis-based formulations. While Ayurveda recognises cannabis as a medicinal plant, allopathy does not.

Thus, modern formulations containing cannabis compounds cannot be manufactured and marketed with approvals from India’s drug regulator, until clinical research establishes the safety and efficacy of cannabis compounds in treating any particular condition. The onus is thus on the Indian pharmaceutical industry to undertake the required research to establish cannabinoids as therapeutic agents.

Plant-derived drugs have tremendous potential, and the global pharma industry has barely scratched the surface of developing modern therapeutic formulations from medicinal plants. A case in point is ‘Artemisinin’, first extracted from Sweet Wormwood by Tu Youyou, a Chinese chemist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 2015 for demonstrating the efficacy of Artemisinin in treating malaria.

Tu Youyou drew inspiration from Traditional Chinese Medicine texts to find a cure for malaria, texts which prescribed using Sweet Wormwood to treat various fevers. Similarly, India too enjoys a unique position to build on the thousands of years of traditional medical knowledge contained in Ayurveda, to create novel therapeutics for unmet medical needs of the 21st century.

Cannabinoid medicine is projected to be the fastest growing life-sciences sector over the coming decade. Tapping this opportunity requires a change in mindset of Indian pharma, graduating from generic medicine manufacturing to R&D-based novel drug development. India has the necessary ecosystem – scientists, clinicians, researchers, a large drug manufacturing ecosystem and very large patient population – to really catapult the Indian life-sciences industry, and in particular cannabinoid therapeutics firms into global leaders.

Unsplash/Representational image

Cannabinoids have the potential to capture a significant share of this market with safer and effective alternatives to opioids and other analgesic medicines. The Indian drugs regulator has even issued regulations for a new class of plant-based drugs – ‘phytopharmaceuticals’ – a perfect bridge between traditional medicine manufacturing and modern allopathy.

Yet, seven years after the establishment of this hybrid regulatory regime, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is yet to respond with novel formulations registered under this category of medicine. It is high time we change our mindset, focus on value-added drug development, play by the rules of global pharma with respect to quality, safety and efficacy standards, and win!

Extract from the bark of the Neem tree may help treat and reduce the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, according to a study led by researchers at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Kolkata.

The Neem tree, indigenous to India, has been used for thousands of years for its anti-parasitic, anti-bacterial and antiviral properties, the researchers said.

The bark extract has helped treat malaria, stomach and intestinal ulcers, skin diseases and many other diseases, they said. The latest study, published recently in the journal Virology, shows that components of Neem bark may target a wide range of viral proteins, suggesting its potential as an antiviral agent against emerging variants of coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2.

''The goal of this research is to develop a Neem-based medication that can reduce the risk of serious illness when someone is infected with coronaviruses,'' said study co-author Maria Nagel, a professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, US.

''We hope that scientists won't have to continuously develop new therapies every time a new SARS-CoV-2 variant emerges,'' she said.

Just like how people take penicillin for strep throat, the researchers envision taking the Neem-based drug for COVID-19, allowing them to resume their normal lives without fear of hospitalisation and death.

The scientists investigated the impact of the bark extract against coronaviruses in their laboratories.

Researchers at IISER Kolkata tested the extract in animal models and showed that it had antiviral properties against coronavirus.

Using computer modelling, the researchers predicted that Neem bark extract will bind to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein at various locations, preventing virus entry to host cells.

The spike protein is used by the SARS-CoV-2 virus to enter and infect cells.

Nagel's lab at the University of Colorado tested the Neem bark extract in SARS-CoV-2 human lung cells.

The extract proved as effective as a preventive drug for infection and also decreased virus replication and spread after infection.

''The next step in our research is to identify the specific components in Neem bark extract that are antiviral. Because these components bind to various regions of SARS-CoV-2, we believe that it will be effective on emerging variants with spike mutations,'' said Nagel.

''We will then determine the formulation of dosage for an antiviral drug to treat coronavirus infections,'' she said.

The findings could guide new antiviral therapeutic efforts to combat the ongoing pandemic, while holding out the promise for treating new coronavirus strains, the researchers added.

Insights into the Market During the Forecast Period (from 2023 to 28), the India Cancer Treatment Drugs Market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of approximately 12.2%. In India, the disease has emerged as a concern for public health, with an estimated 1.39 million cases expected in 2020. In the past, more than 0.8 million people died from cancer in India in 2019.

The National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research estimates that one woman in India dies from cervical cancer every eight minutes. In India, one woman dies from breast cancer for every two newly diagnosed women. In addition, the country’s tobacco use is on the rise, resulting in an increase in tobacco-related cancer deaths.

Changes in eating habits, food adulteration, environmental changes, an increase in chemical factories, etc., all contribute to a steady rise in cancer cases. are the main considerations for heightening malignant growth cases in India. Aside from these, an increase in cancer patients has been caused by a sedentary lifestyle and an excessive intake of junk food over the past few years. Accordingly, the requirement for convenient determination and preventive consideration is flooding at an outstanding speed, prompting broad interests in Research and development, in this manner making way for medication producers to concoct more viable medications to address such acceleration in the country.

Since the developed markets are relatively saturated in this industry, India has also seen remarkable opportunities for venture capitalists and investors. Additionally, the Ayushman Bharat Scheme’s effective diagnosis and treatment of cancer as well as the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS)’s growing focus on oncology are likely to boost drug sales for cancer treatment. In addition, the industry has been positively impacted by the ever-increasing demand for effective medicines and the ever-improving infrastructure for cancer care in recent years, which includes upgraded facilities for tertiary care.

Mostly in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Assam, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi, Maharashtra, and Karnataka, among others, where the incidence of lip, oral, breast, and cervical cancer accounts for the majority of the cases. Consequently, requiring these cancer-related medications and accelerating their production during the anticipated time frame.

Key driver:

Market Dynamics Numerous Programs Promoting Affordable and Effective Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment One of the main focuses of the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana is protecting beneficiaries from the devastating costs of cancer treatment. Screening for oral, breast, and cervical cancer, as well as other common non-communicable diseases, is one of the services provided by the Ayushman Bharat Health and Wellness Centers (AB-HWCs).

Similar to this, the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers’ National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA) published a list of 390 non-scheduled anti-cancer medications in 2019 with MRP reductions of up to 87 percent. This activity helped 22 lakh malignant growth patients in the country and would save buyers about Rs. 800 crores per year. Indian pharmaceutical companies are currently on an acquisition binge after a decade of prudent and organic growth. Additionally, cancer medications appear to be their primary focus, which ultimately drives the pharmaceutical industry.

Possible Limitation:

Access to medications like trastuzumab, rituximab, and bortezomib has been restricted as a result of rising catastrophic spending, which is characterized by significant OPP (out-of-pocket) expenditure in the private health care system. This is because the private sector has demonstrated significantly higher expenditure levels.

The study, which was supported by the Global Challenges program of the University of Birmingham, the India Institute of the University of Birmingham, and the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), found that, depending on the type of cancer, patients were required to pay out-of-pocket expenses ranging from 19,494 to 295,679 Indian Rupees (INR).

The burden for health products and services decreases as a result of OPP payments, which include cost-sharing, self-medication, and other direct patient-borne costs that are not fully covered by insurance. This may have a negative impact on the industry in the coming years.

Learning experience: Ayurveda-Based Malignant growth Drug and Treatments

The public authority has put forth various attempts to energize Ayurveda research and the advancement of disease treatments. The government-established independent Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS) has conducted research on cancer, worked on drug development, and documented medical procedures, including the creation of AYUSH QOL2C to improve the quality of life for people with the disease. As a result, pharmaceuticals based on Ayurveda are likely to offer competitive businesses lucrative opportunities in the coming years.

Key Pattern:

Increasing the number of cancer tertiary care facilities in the country The Central Government is expanding the Tertiary Care of Cancer Scheme to increase the number of resources for tertiary cancer care. So far, the program has approved 19 State Cancer Institutes (SCIs) and 20 Tertiary Care Cancer Centers (TCCCs). Six institutions have been established in Sikkim, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Bihar, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala up until this point. The 33 other institutes are developing in various stages. Therapies and medications are necessary for better care, so developing tertiary care is likely to shape the industry in the coming years.

Market Division

In light of Treatment Type,

Chemotherapy
Designated Treatment
Immunotherapy
Hormonal Treatment
Other Treatment Types

The Designated treatment portion achieved the biggest market development in the authentic period. It is primarily attributable to the advanced efficacy, higher survival rates, and enormous potential of targeted therapies to kill only malignant cells. Then again, the immunotherapy portion is supposed to enlist the quickest development during 2023-28.

This monstrous development is related with the escalation of the frequencies of disease in India and the absence of related clinical help with the country. In addition, India’s public reimbursement programs do not include costly cancer medicines because it is one of the health systems with the fewest resources. This could result in catastrophic expenditure risks. Systemic anticancer therapy must therefore be thoroughly evaluated before being included in national formularies.

Cytotoxic drugs, targeted drugs, hormonal drugs, and others made up the majority of the medicines with the highest priority. Deeply grounded cytotoxic medications, presented to worldwide conventional contest in the beyond 10-20 years, incorporate doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, carboplatin, methotrexate, cytarabine, capecitabine, fluorouracil, and gemcitabine.

Moreover, Nonexclusive Chemotherapy specialists are the most high-need malignant growth medications by Indian oncologists as they work with significant enhancements in endurance and are now remembered for WHO EML. Recent Developments in the India Cancer Treatment Drugs Market In August 2022, AstraZeneca India, a pharmaceutical company, announced that the Drugs Controller General of India had given the go-ahead to commercialize its medication for breast cancer treatment, Lynparza (Olaparib), as a monotherapy.

PHESGO was the first ever fixed-dose formulation in oncology to combine two monoclonal antibodies – Perjeta (pertuzumab) and Herceptin ( Lynparza is the solitary endorsed medication focusing on BRCA (Bosom Disease quality) changes in beginning phase bosom malignant growth.

Dostarlimab, a medicine made in a lab that acts as a surrogate for antibodies in the human body, was discovered to have the potential to be a “possible” cancer cure for one of the most deadly tumors in a small clinical trial conducted by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in June 2022 for the first time in history.

In dialogue with great Ayurveda personalities / expert meeting at the 25th International Ayurveda Symposium in Birstein

by admin

Birstein – The International Ayurveda Symposium in Birstein (Hessen) is an annual highlight that every Ayurveda doctor, therapist and consultant should have on their agenda. From September 15th to 17th, 2023, doctors and professors of international renown will come together at the “European Academy for Ayurveda” to share their wealth of experience, this year for the 25th time in a row. Information at: www.ayurveda-symposium.org

The anniversary conference is filled with over 40 specialist lectures, workshops and panel discussions and stands for Ayurveda competence throughout Europe. Only here do the participants exchange ideas directly with the great personalities of Ayurveda and experience practical knowledge that is not found in any textbook.

For the 25th anniversary, the International Ayurveda Symposium takes up one of the major health issues of our time: strategies for the treatment and prevention of cancer. Research Director Vaidya P. Rammanohar (Amrita Center for Advanced Research in Ayurveda, Coimbatore) reports on how Ayurveda in integrative oncology can fill global unmet needs in cancer treatment. Prof. Dr. Tanuja Nesari, Director General of the Indian umbrella organization “All India Institute of Ayurveda” in Delhi, addresses phytotherapeutic approaches: Her lecture shows how traditional Ayurvedic medicinal herbs are used in complementary cancer therapy.

Ayurvedic therapists will appreciate the numerous workshops to supplement their practical skills. The focus here is on physical therapies, for example Kalari therapies from southern India or the combination of Ayurveda with osteopathic and chiropractic techniques. In addition, Hans H. Rhyner MD, pioneer of Ayurveda medicine in Europe, will pass on his very personal diagnostic methods from 40 years of practice to the next generation.

The focus on “Panchamabhuta – healing dimensions of the five elements” examines the influence of ether, air, fire, water and earth on our health. In particular, the connection to the five senses is the focus here, for example with the contribution of Dr. Mihir Hajarnavis (Tilak Ayurveda College, Pune) on the Indian tradition of eating with your hands, or treating hearing loss with oil baths (Karana Purana) by Prof. Sanjeev Sharma, Director of the National Institute of Ayurveda at the University of Jaipur.

The program is framed by the special flair on the campus of the European Academy for Ayurveda. Indian robes set accents in the stylish rooms, the lecturers give confidential insights into their careers at the fireplace evening – and scents from the Ayurveda gourmet kitchen float above everything, which brings the “five elements” closer to the participants in a culinary way.

In 2023, the symposium will only take place live and on site.
The opening event on Friday is open to all interested parties free of charge and will also honor the 30th anniversary of the academy with a ceremony. The alumni meeting with Gurukul is also free. SN Gupta, Vice-Chancellor Maganbhai Adenwala Mahagujarat University (Nadiad), will give professional and personal inspiration to former and current students at the “European Academy of Ayurveda”.

Date: September 15-17, 2023
Weekend ticket: €320 (€275 for alumni, students and DÄGAM/VEAT members)
Program and registration: www.ayurveda-symposium.org

About the European Academy for Ayurveda
Since 1993, the academy has followed its vision of bringing people into contact with traditional medicine from India.

Centre in favour of locating global centre for traditional medicine in Hyderabad

The city is likely to have another jewel in its crown if the Central Government’s latest request relating to the setting up of a global centre for traditional medicine proposed by the World Health Organisation (WHO) is any indication.

Union Minister for Tourism, Culture and Development of North East Region G. Kishan Reddy has requested the State Government to identify a suitable parcel of land for setting up the institute in the city. In a letter addressed to Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, the Union Minister asked him to resolve the issues pertaining to identification of land and spot a parcel of land.

He said that the country is known for its traditional medicines, including Ayurveda, yoga, Unani, naturopathy, Sowa-Ripa and Siddha to name a few, which are recognised worldwide. The COVID pandemic had further highlighted the benefits of traditional medicine and demonstrated the power of Ayurveda to the world.

“India is regarded as the pharmacy of the world and focus on traditional medicine aligns with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s emphasis on prevention of diseases and wellness,” he said. He recalled that the WHO director general had announced intentions of setting up a global centre for traditional medicine in India on the occasion of World Ayurveda Day in November 2020.

The Union AYUSH Ministry was considering setting up of the centre in Hyderabad as traditional scientific research institutions like CCMB, CSIR, NIN, IICT, and FDTRC would further complement the approach towards an integrated holistic medicine. The Government of Telangana had been communicated for their inputs on the extent of support for setting up of the global centre, he said, adding that the global centre would benefit the city and the State.

WHO opens traditional medicine centre in Jamnagar using AI

Title:

Content: Archive / Lifestyle
The World Health Organization is interested in alternative medicine.
Mohamed Ismail - Cairo - DPA -
Many people use traditional medicine – but what do these methods really do?
A new WHO centre intends to explore this.
The center is based in India, a country where alternative medicine is so important that it even has its own ministry – which specializes in Ayurveda, Yoga, Physiotherapy, Greek Medicine, Master and Homeopathy.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended the opening of the centre in Jamnagar in mid-April, saying: “India ’ s traditional medicine system is not just a cure.
It ’ s a comprehensive science of life. ”
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the Indian government is supporting the centre with US $250 million (230 million euros).
WHO President Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said: “The center aims to be an engine of innovation, moving towards an agenda of evidence, data and sustainability in traditional medicine, ” adding that the center would connect traditional medicine practitioners around the world and help set standards for research.
Traditional medicine is a broad field.
According to the World Health Organization ’ s statement for the center, 80% of the world ’ s population uses traditional medicine, which includes among other things acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine and herbal blends.
Traditional medicine is also represented in modern science.
According to the World Health Organization, about 40% of all drugs approved today are derived from natural substances.
The discovery of aspirin, for example, is based on ancient recipes made from the bark of the willow tree.
The research for artemisinin for use in the fight against malaria, for which the Nobel Prize was awarded in 2015, began with the study of ancient texts of Chinese medicine.
George Rochmeyer of Cochrane, an international network that provides the scientific basis for decisions in the health field, said it makes sense at least to take a closer look at treatment methods that have been developed over centuries, to verify the reasonableness of these methods, and to conduct clinical studies on them in case of doubt.
Cochrane reviews are systematic reviews that collect all scientific evidence on a specific issue from medicine or other health sciences.
However, Rochmeyer also stressed that besides the examples of traditional methods cited by the WHO, which form the basis of currently developed treatments, there are likely many other examples where traditional methods of careful review have proven ineffective or even dangerous, such as phlebotomy, noting that spending too much money on studies to review a therapeutic practice is always a matter of discretion.
Rochmeyer stated that there are many Cochrane reviews about the use of traditional methods such as acupuncture in certain cases, but: “From my personal experience at Cochrane, I would say that I have not come across many reviews that have shown really compelling evidence for traditional therapeutic practice. ”
This is often due to the fact that when searching for these treatments we find only a few often-poorly conducted studies that cannot prove or disprove any benefit from them – which brings us back to the question of whether the already limited research funds should be invested in a scientifically unreasonable procedure – for example, homeopathy.
Professor Emeritus Edzard Ernst, a longtime professor of alternative medicine at the University of Exeter, noted that while it was necessary to wait and see who would lead the center and what it would do, the WHO press release was full of exaggerations.
The World Health Organization says it also wants to use new technologies at the new center for the study of traditional medicine — via artificial intelligence and big data, for example.
The center is expected to focus on providing a reliable evidence base for policy and standards of traditional medicine practices and products.
In addition, the center is supposed to help countries integrate these practices into their health systems.

COPENHAGEN (AFP) - The iconic Little Mermaid statue in the Danish capital Copenhagen was vandalized on Wednesday night as unidentified people painted the Russian flag on its base.
Announcement
An AFP correspondent reported that the Russian flag was painted under unknown circumstances on the stone above which a statue of the Little Mermaid, inspired by the heroine of one of the stories of the writer Hans Christian Andersen, was installed.
Danish police said they were launching an investigation into the incident, without giving any indication of the source of the move, which shows clear support for Russia amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.
A Copenhagen police spokesman told AFP: "We are investigating the area in order to find any evidence."
A small number of tourists in the area took pictures of the statue in the port of Copenhagen, which was vandalized on Thursday morning.
The Little Mermaid statue on a largely unfrequented promenade has been targeted several times since it was installed in 1913.
In 1964, the head of the nymph was stolen for the first time without being recovered.
In 1998, a group of vandals cut off the head of the statue again, but it was later restored.
This monument was exposed to the explosion in 2003.
The statue, created by Danish sculptor Edvard Eriksen, has also been targeted several times with graffiti or graffiti, most recently in 2020 with the inscription “racist fish ”.

Content: Russian Flag Painted on Copenhagen's Most Famous Landmark

It's the latest in a long line of attacks on Little Mermaid statue
By Rob Quinn,  Newser Staff
Posted Mar 2, 2023 10:15 AM CST

The Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen, one of Denmark's most famous landmarks, has been vandalized yet again, this time with the Russian flag. Authorities said Thursday that the white, blue, and red stripes of the Russian flag were painted on the stone the statue sits on, Reuters reports. Police said the vandalism was discovered early Thursday. "We are of course launching an investigation to find out who did it and when and how it happened," a police spokesman said, per Jyllands-Posten.

Denmark, like other European nations, has strongly criticized Russia's war against Ukraine. The small statue, a tribute to the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, sits off a waterfront promenade in the Danish capital. It has been vandalized many times since it was installed 110 years ago, AFP reports. It has been decapitated twice and was knocked off its base with explosives in 2003. In 2017, it was doused in red paint in a protest against whale hunting. In 2020, during worldwide protests after the death of George Floyd, the words "racist fish" were painted on the base, though Andersen scholars said they weren't aware of any racist elements in the fairy tale.

Content: Danish little mermaid like cornerstone painted Russian flag tricolor
A statue of the Little Mermaid, one of the most iconic tourist attractions in the Danish capital Copenhagen, was deliberately vandalized last night, and the cornerstone below the statue was painted with the white, blue and red colors of the Russian flag.
Advertisement
The Little Mermaid comes from the famous fairy tale of Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen, where the stone beneath the bronze statue is painted in three colors of the Russian flag.
Copenhagen police told Agence France-Presse that since they arrived this morning, "a case of vandalism has been filed" and "local investigations have been launched to trace traces".
It is clear that this means supporting Moscow ’ s position in the Ukraine war.
Some tourists, puzzled by this, took pictures of the damaged statue this morning.
The 175-kilogram Little Mermaid is a work by sculptor Edvard Eriksen, inspired by the Danish poet and writer Hans Christian Andersen ’ s 1837 fairy tale of the same name.
The statue, which sits next to a relatively secluded waterfront walkway, has been vandalized several times over the years, including two burglaries of its head in 1964 and 1998, and a severed arm in 1984. In 2003, the statue was blown loose with explosives and fell into the bay.
It has also been graffitied and painted several times, most recently in 2020 with the words “racist fish. ”

COPENHAGEN (AFP) - The iconic Little Mermaid statue in the Danish capital Copenhagen was vandalized on Wednesday night as unidentified people painted the Russian flag on its base.
Announcement
An AFP correspondent reported that the Russian flag was painted under unknown circumstances on the stone above which a statue of the Little Mermaid, inspired by the heroine of one of the stories of the writer Hans Christian Andersen, was installed.
Danish police said they were launching an investigation into the incident, without giving any indication of the source of the move, which shows clear support for Russia amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.
A Copenhagen police spokesman told AFP: "We are investigating the area in order to find any evidence."
A small number of tourists in the area took pictures of the statue in the port of Copenhagen, which was vandalized on Thursday morning.
The Little Mermaid statue on a largely unfrequented promenade has been targeted several times since it was installed in 1913.
In 1964, the head of the nymph was stolen for the first time without being recovered.
In 1998, a group of vandals cut off the head of the statue again, but it was later restored.
This monument was exposed to the explosion in 2003.
The statue, created by Danish sculptor Edvard Eriksen, has also been targeted several times with graffiti or graffiti, most recently in 2020 with the inscription “racist fish ”.

It's the latest in a long line of attacks on Little Mermaid statue

The Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen, one of Denmark's most famous landmarks, has been vandalized yet again, this time with the Russian flag. Authorities said Thursday that the white, blue, and red stripes of the Russian flag were painted on the stone the statue sits on, Reuters reports. Police said the vandalism was discovered early Thursday. "We are of course launching an investigation to find out who did it and when and how it happened," a police spokesman said, per Jyllands-Posten.

Denmark, like other European nations, has strongly criticized Russia's war against Ukraine. The small statue, a tribute to the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, sits off a waterfront promenade in the Danish capital. It has been vandalized many times since it was installed 110 years ago, AFP reports. It has been decapitated twice and was knocked off its base with explosives in 2003. In 2017, it was doused in red paint in a protest against whale hunting. In 2020, during worldwide protests after the death of George Floyd, the words "racist fish" were painted on the base, though Andersen scholars said they weren't aware of any racist elements in the fairy tale.

A statue of the Little Mermaid, one of the most iconic tourist attractions in the Danish capital Copenhagen, was deliberately vandalized last night, and the cornerstone below the statue was painted with the white, blue and red colors of the Russian flag.

The Little Mermaid comes from the famous fairy tale of Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen, where the stone beneath the bronze statue is painted in three colors of the Russian flag.
Copenhagen police told Agence France-Presse that since they arrived this morning, "a case of vandalism has been filed" and "local investigations have been launched to trace traces".
It is clear that this means supporting Moscow ’ s position in the Ukraine war.
Some tourists, puzzled by this, took pictures of the damaged statue this morning.
The 175-kilogram Little Mermaid is a work by sculptor Edvard Eriksen, inspired by the Danish poet and writer Hans Christian Andersen ’ s 1837 fairy tale of the same name.
The statue, which sits next to a relatively secluded waterfront walkway, has been vandalized several times over the years, including two burglaries of its head in 1964 and 1998, and a severed arm in 1984. In 2003, the statue was blown loose with explosives and fell into the bay.
It has also been graffitied and painted several times, most recently in 2020 with the words “racist fish. ”
