कालार्थकर्मणां योगो हीनमिथ्यातिमात्रकः ।
सम्यग्योगश्च विज्ञेयो रोगारोग्यैककारणम्॥१९॥

samyagyogaśca vijñeyo rogārogyaikakāraṇam||19||

Hina (less), ati (more) or mithya (wrong) unison of Kala (time), Artha (senses) and Karma (functions) is the reason for diseases and the right unison of these three factors is the reason for health. Ayurvedic treatment is based on individual’s doshas (Vata, pitta & Kapha ) constituents or prakriti, their state of imbalance, lifestyle, diet, mind state and environment.
