Abstract in brief

  • This text discusses how Ayurvedic medicine uses medicinal plants like Mucuna pruriens and Withania somnifera to manage Parkinson's disease, focusing on traditional knowledge and modern research to develop integrated treatments.
  • It highlights the complexity of Parkinson's, emphasizing both motor and non-motor symptoms, and the challenges of current treatments like levodopa, which can cause side effects at high doses.
  • Mucuna pruriens is presented as a promising natural alternative because it contains levodopa with fewer side effects and additional neuroprotective properties, and Ayurveda also employs other herbal regimens and detoxification practices (like Panchakarma) that show potential benefits in managing the disease.]
