What is the effectiveness of ayurveda in treatment of neurodegenerative disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
When talking about..: ...Treatments, "alternative" really means "effectiveness not demonstrated" - either never tested, or tested and not found to work. The herb promoted for cognitive health, withania somnifera, does seem to have some effect in animal models, but has not been well-tested in humans, so the answer is, we don't really know.
