bill passed AYUSH can practice modern medicine

Bill Passed: Ayurveda, Unani doctors can practice modern medicine in MP

Madhya Pradesh: Ayurveda, Unani doctors will now be allowed to practice modern medicine, as the Madhya Pradesh government has passed a two bills to enable these practitioners to prescribe allopathy medicines. Two bills were passed in the state Vidhan Sabha namely Madhya Pradesh Ayurvigyan parishad (sanshodhan) vidhayak 2016 and MP Ayurvdic ,Unani tatha prakritik chikitsa vyavsai (sanshodhan) vudhayak 2016 on Friday. The bill was passed amidst opposition from other parties. 

Health minister Rustam Singh  presented a Bill in Vidhan Sabha on Friday to allow appointment of Ayurvedic, Unani practitioners in government allopathic hospitals/PHCs. The bill also called for a mandatory training of three months before posting them in primary health centres. The minister clarified that they will be authorised to prescribe only 72 types of medicine.

Not favoring the move, Bala Bachchan, acting leader of the opposition said, “Now the affect of Vyapam scam is clear. More than 1000 doctors have been denied their degrees after the scam. The MBBS takes more than 5 years to complete, here you will train them in 3 months only.

Ramniwas Rawat, Congress  party member said, “this is highly objectionable. This government is playing with the health of the people. The government has not even taken the permission of medical council of India (MCI).”

It was also demanded that  the government should take permission from the MCI before presenting the bill.

However, TOI reports that health minister Rustam Singh assured the house stating that, “the Ayurveda and Unani doctors will be allowed to practice on 72 medicines. This is a temporary arrangement and as soon as doctors are available this would be withdrawn.”

The move, the minister justified, was necessary on account of meeting the acute shortage of medical practitioners in the state.

With the aim of correcting the doctors shortage in the country, congress MLA Shankarlal Tiwari demanded that BDS degree holders should also be given a similar exemption.

Traditional Drugs For Vector-Borne Diseases

Government Developing Traditional Drugs For Vector-Borne Diseases

All India | Press Trust of India | Updated: November 25, 2016 20:00 IST

NEW DELHI:  New drugs are being developed by the government and its research councils for the prevention and management of vector-borne diseases through traditional medicines, the government said today.

A drug called AYUSH PJ7 has been developed for Dengue by Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS), the Minister of State for AYUSH, Shripad Yesso Naik said in written reply to Lok Sabha.

AYUSH SL has also been developed by this council for the treatment of filarisis. Early this year, the council had also developed an anti-malarial drug AYUSH 64.

Additionally, several studies showing significant therapeutic effects through the use of Unani drugs against diseases like malaria, filarisis and kala azar have been carried out by Central Council for Research in Unani Medicines.

The research body for Homoeopathy, Central Council for Research in Homeopathy, has also conducted clinical management studies on dengue, Japanese encephalitis and acute lymphadenitis due to filariasis.

National AYUSH Council

Govt mulling over having a National AYUSH Council

PTI | Updated: Nov 16, 2016, 03.44 PM IST
NEW DELHI: The government is mulling over a proposal to have a National AYUSH Council, on the lines of Medical Council of India, to establish and maintain the standard of education of traditional medicine as well as recognise the qualification and register AYUSH practitioners in the country.


We have received a proposal. The final decision will be taken at a higher level," said Dr Manoj Nesri, Adviser (Ayurveda) in the AYUSH Ministry.

The ministry is currently preparing a white paper on the matter, which once whetted by MoS AYUSH, Shripad Yesso Naik, it will be sent to NITI Aayog, he added.

As the proposal is still in its nascent stage, senior officials are debating whether there should be an independent National AYUSH Council or whether it should be part of the National Medical Commission, mooted by NITI Aayog as a replacement for Medical Council of India.

Genetically we similar to cow........

Genetically speaking we’re all chicken, banana too

In terms of genes, we’re similar to several other living things as well.

The Indian Express

Written by Arun Prashanth Subramanian | Published:November 8, 2016 10:57 am

“report of the US Department of Agriculture”, 

80% of genes found in the cow are found in humans too, he said. Indeed, a 2009 report in the journal Science said domesticated cattle share about 80% of their genes with humans — however, as other studies have shown, seen in terms of genes, we’re similar to several other living things as well. A few examples.

96% Chimpanzee
A 2005 study by the Chimpanzee Sequencing and Analysis Consortium, and published in Nature, found that the typical human protein has accumulated just one unique change since chimps and humans diverged from a common ancestor about 6 million years ago.

90% Cat
A 2007 study published in Genome Research reported that about 90% of the Abyssinian domestic cat’s genes are the same as humans’. Cats help in the study of human infectious diseases; feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a genetic relative of HIV.

85% Mouse
The National Human Genome Research Institute states that rats share nearly 85% of human DNA — a similarity attributable to a shared ancestor about 80 million years ago, and the basis for use of mice in lab experiments.

84% Dog
The best friend shares 84% of its DNA with man — and is, therefore, important in the study of human disease. Researchers are especially interested in diseases like retinal disease, cataracts, retinitis pigmentosa, cancer and epilepsy.

70% Acorn worm
It is not just land animals that humans share their DNA with. As per a study published in Nature in 2015, in terms of genetic makeup, we are 70% similar to acorn worms — a kind of slithery, underwater critter.

61% Chicken
Even the bravest human is (more than half) chicken, genetically speaking. A study published in Nature in 2004 said that the DNA sequences diverged in ways that may explain important differences between birds and mammals.

60% Banana
As humans are chicken, they’re bananas too, it would seem. Research shows that we share about 60% of our DNA with the humble fruit.

26% Yeast
These single-celled organisms have many genes that are the same as those in humans, including those that enable the breakdown of sugars.

We’re all the same, almost

99.9 % No two individuals, except for identical twins, are genetically identical, but our differences are in fact only 0.1% of the entire human genome. According to the National Human Genome Research Institute, we each have approximately 3×109 base pairs of DNA, of which any two people have about 6×106 different base pairs, which translates into a difference of 0.1%. It adds that this minuscule unique DNA, plus the interaction of genetic and environmental factors, is what leads to our different phenotypic features.

PhD programmes in AYUSH

UGC asks universities to provide PhD programmes in AYUSH disciplines

• HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times, New Delhi

• Updated: Oct 28, 2016 14:57 IST
• Students will now be able to pursue PhD in traditional medicine courses after the University Grants Commission (UGC) asked all central universities to start a doctorate degree programmes under AYUSH disciplines.
  On June 24, AYUSH ministry had written a letter to the UGC requesting it to issue an advisory to educational institutions on the same. AYUSH has announced PhD programmes in AYUSH disciplines from the concerned research council.
  The research councils in the field of Ayurvedic Sciences, Homoeopathy, Yoga and Naturopathy among others also conduct clinical and basic research studies and they want to extend research opportunities through PhD fellowship programme for the development of AYUSH.
  UGC has asked all central universities to set up a system for enrolment of candidates in the PhD programme and providing them an opportunity to avail fellowship from the concerned research council. The councils will sponsor 200 candidates: 125 postgraduate of Ayush and 75 of science and technology streams for pursuing PhD on Ayush research topics.

Ayrveda Day 28 Oct.

National Ayurveda Day to be celebrated on Dhanteras

Manoj Nesari, Advisor to the Ministry of Ayurveda said that states across the country have been informed about this decision and the theme will be ‘Ayurveda for Prevention and Control of Diabetes.’

The Indian Express

By: Express News Service | Pune | Published:October 27, 2016 3:16 am

AFTER ‘YOGA Day’, the centre has now decided to observe National Ayurveda Day. A circular issued by the AYUSH department to all states says there is a lot of ignorance about this ancient science and Dhanteras (Oct 28) will be celebrated as per the Indian tradition as National Ayurveda Day.

Manoj Nesari, Advisor to the Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH), told The Indian Express that states across the country have been informed about this decision and the theme will be ‘Ayurveda for Prevention and Control of Diabetes.’

Dhanvantari is the God of Ayurveda and it is only fitting that National Ayurveda Day is observed on Dhanvantari Jayanti or Dhanteras, Nesari said. State AYUSH directorates, ayurveda educational institutions and pharmaceutical companies will commemorate the occasion by organizing public lectures, seminars and exhibitions. Health check-up camps and awareness programmes will be held on the occasion, Nesari added.

In the city, several ayurveda experts have welcomed the decision. Dr Suhas Parchure,former president of NIMA said ayurveda is an ancient Indian medicine system but ayurvedic medicine is not being sent to other countries. “We hope with the introduction of an Ayurveda Day, several issues will be taken up,” he said.

Dept of Commerce with Ayush

Centre engages Dept of Commerce with Ayush ministry to step up export of Ayush drugs

Peethaambaran Kunnathoor, Chennai Wednesday, October 05, 2016, 08:00 Hrs  [IST] PharmaBizz.com

With the intention of increasing the credibility of Ayush medicines in the domestic and foreign markets, and to accelerate the export, government of India is devising new schemes by engaging Department of Commerce with the Ministry of Ayush.
 
As part of the initiative, steps would be taken to promote and get recognized the ayurvedic pharmacopoeia in major markets besides promoting WHO certification for manufacturing facilities. Similarly, the Department of Commerce will strive to simplify the procedures for revalidation of monograph by countries abroad.

To deliberate on the scheme, the joint secretary of the Department of Commerce, Sudhanshu Pandey, called a meeting of all stakeholders of the Ayush industry on September 27 in New Delhi and discussed various issues in the medicine manufacturing industry and allied sectors which pose detrimental to export business. It is learnt that the commerce ministry is directed by the Union government to take steps for exporting Ayurvedic formulations to foreign countries. Pharmaceuticals Export Promotion Council (Pharmexcil) will be the agency to provide all technical supports to the exporters.

Participating in the meeting, on behalf of the ayurvedic drug manufacturers in Kerala, Dr. S.G. Ramesh Warrier, president of AMMOI, highlighted the point that getting the API monographs recognized by as many importing countries as possible would prove to be an important step in enabling ayurvedic medicines get registered in such countries. He said Indian pharmacopoeia has included about 100 ayurvedic herbs in its latest edition.  

According to Dr. Warrier, getting WHO certification for manufacturers will, indeed, improve the global acceptance of Ayurveda medicines. However, government  should consider extending financial support to enable as many units as possible to seek WHO certification. He further pointed out that the scope of the Market Access Incentive (MAI) under the Export Promotion Scheme should be widened to include ayurvedic medicines. 

Giving emphasis to classical formulations in which the Kerala manufacturers concentrate on, the president of AMMOI, said for export purpose, a list of products with known export potential should be prepared on the basis of discussions between the major stake holders. In doing so, priority should be given to finished products rather than raw herbs and intermediates.

He wanted the government to devise a mechanism of engaging the regulators of potential importing countries in discussions to convince them that pure herbal medicines should not be treated on the same plane as synthetic chemical drugs while formulating standard parameters for product registration.

not give homeopathic teething tablets

Alert on homeo baby pills The Telegraph Calcutta India | Sunday , October 2 , 2016 |

Our Special Correspondent

New Delhi, Oct. 1: The US Food and Drug Administration has cautioned that homeopathic teething tablets and gels may pose a risk to infants and young children and recommended that consumers stop using these products. In a statement yesterday, the FDA said it had analyzed adverse events, including reports of seizures, in infants and children who had been given these products since the start of a safety alert issued in October 2010. The agency did not say how many adverse events it had documented but merely that it was "currently investigating this issue, including testing more product samples". Senior officials in India's Central Council of Research in Homeopathy (CCRH) said that while they did not know the background of the FDA advisory, expert panels in India had recommended the use of homeopathy for young children for ailments including teething troubles. The FDA has said that consumers should seek medical care immediately if their child experiences seizures, difficulty in breathing, lethargy, excessive sleepiness, muscle weakness, skin flushing, constipation or difficulty in urinating after using homeopathic teething tablets or gels. "Teething can be managed without prescription or over-the-counter remedies," Janet Woodstock, director of the FDA's center for drug evaluation and research, said in the media statement. "We recommend parents and caregivers not give homeopathic teething tablets and gels to children and seek advice from their health care professionals for safe alternatives." Homeopathic teething tablets or gels have not been evaluated or approved by the FDA for safety or efficacy. "The agency is also not aware of any proven health benefit of the products which are labeled to relieve teething symptoms in children," the FDA said. In October 2010, the FDA had issued a safety alert informing consumers that it had received reports of serious adverse events in children taking a product sold in the US for teething and found to contain belladonna, a plant-derived substance used in homeopathy. The FDA said the adverse events "were consistent with belladonna toxicity". But senior CCRH officials said they did not know of any evidence of toxicity in children caused by homeopathic tablets. "We believe homeopathic teething medicines are safe for use in children," Anil Khurana, research coordinator at the CCRH, told The Telegraph. The Indian government views homeopathy as one stream of traditional medicine, similar to ayurveda, unani and siddha, and supports research on and the use of homeopathy. The Union ministry for ayurveda, yoga, unani, siddha and homeopathy (ayush) has approved a government-supported programme called "homeopathy for a healthy child" that encourages the use of homeopathic medicines for various ailments, including teething troubles. Another senior CCRH official said that homeopathic medicines contained active substances diluted to such low levels of concentration that they were virtually undetectable in the medicines and did not have any capacity to cause toxicity. "It is contradictory to claim homeopathic medicines will cause toxicity," said Bindu Sharma, a qualified homeopathic doctor and member of the CCRH. "Homeopathy has been criticized as having only a placebo effect because the medicines are so dilute. If something is so dilute that it does not exist there, how can it cause toxicity - there is a contradiction here," she said. About 12,000 graduates and 1,200 postgraduates emerge every year from India's 195 recognized homeopathic medical colleges. "We estimate the country has 2.7 lakh homeopathic practitioners," said Ramjee Singh, president of the Central Council of Homeopathy.

Challenge High Court order relating to Ayurveda

Delhi government to challenge High Court order relating to Ayurveda, Unani docs

Written by Pragya Kaushika | New Delhi | Published:September 26, 2016 2:14 am

The department has also asked why there was a delay of five months in recommending the appeal, added the official.

The Delhi government is planning to challenge a decision by the Delhi High Court barring alternative medicine practitioners from practising allopathy or prescribing allopathic medicines.

A senior official said the matter has been referred to the law department, which has sought the opinion of the government counsel’s in the matter. The department has also asked why there was a delay of five months in recommending the appeal, added the official.

The department has decided to look into options for challenging the high court order, after it received representations from Ayush practitioners who have recently been under fire from the Delhi Medical Association on accusations of “illegally” administering allopathic medication.

“It is the case of the Ayush practitioners that they are taught modern medicine as a part of their Ayurveda curriculum and they are permitted to administer allopathic medicine as medical practitioners under the Delhi Bhartiya Chikitsa Parishad Act and rules,” said the department.

The High Court, in its judgment dated April 8, allowed the petition of the Delhi Medical Association to debar practitioners of the Indian system of medicine from practicing allopathic medicine.

Incidentally, the department of health and family welfare has said the HC order is “worthy of challenge”.

“The expressions used for describing the medicines to be administered by the members of the each register — Indian medical register and state medical register — are practically identical in their use of words and the import,” said the department in its argument.

It added, “The order of high court order is worthy of challenge on basis of existing legal provisions governing the practice of medicine in Delhi, and also because it comes into conflict with the order of the apex court in another case.”

biodegradable energy

Indian scientists found a way to recycle fish scales and generate green energy

Scientists at Jadavpur University have developed a harvester which uses raw fish scales, which can generate biodegradable energy to power next-gen medical devices like a pacemaker.

Fish scales are said to contain collagen fibers which in turn have piezoelectric properties. (Reuters)

Scientists at Jadavpur University have developed a harvester which uses raw fish scales, which can generate biodegradable energy to power next-gen medical devices like a pacemaker. This technology will be used to tap into the sustainable green energy sector. Fish scales are said to contain collagen fibers which in turn have piezoelectric properties. This means if there is enough stress on them a certain amount of charge can be generated. With an aim to do this, the scientists collected large amounts of fish scales. Then they used a demineralization process which made the scales transparent and flexible. This was followed by toying with the hierarchical alignment of the scales which boost their energy production and eventually be effective in creating a nanogenerator with bio-piezoelectric properties.

Assistant Professor at Organic Nano-Piezoelectric Device Laboratory, Dipankar Mandal told IANS, “We collected bio-waste in the form of hard, raw fish scales from a fish processing market, and then used a demineralization process for making them transparent and flexible.”This method has recycling properties, as the fish by-products into the BPNG through a process is a good solution for the development of value-added products and also aids in the reduction of the electronic waste. The work of the scientists can be used in transparent, biocompatible and biodegradable electronics. It can also function with implantable medical devices like the pacemaker and other diagnostics and surgeries. According to Handbook of Fisheries statistics in the year 2014, India produced almost 96 lakh tonne of fishes in a year. With that huge amount of fish produced, especially in the areas like Lakshadweep, Goa, Kerela and West Bengal, this move by the scientists will have huge results.

death clock by siddha system

Can we ever live happily if we come to know our date of death in advance? Forget about happy living, life itself may not be possible if we have such knowledge. Only such mystery makes our life interesting, hopeful, helpful, fearsome and responsible.   

No science or scientist can tell when one would die. The objective of science is not to predict when death would occur, but how to improve the quality of life and indeed its longevity as well.  

But any such predictions like when one would die, when one may get the treasure, how will be the future etc., only an astrologer or numerologist or fortune teller or some God men can tell. Unfortunately, our curiosity do ends with the information that comes from these people. We neither verify the accuracy of above perditions nor would dare to counter with those people why they went wrong in their predictions.  

Some of the tenets of Siddha system of medicine surpass astrology, numerology, palmistry and what not…and has provided a wonderful ‘death clock’ for Siddha vaidyas. Whether it has any science or mathematics in it…better we should leave such question to Lord Siva and Siddha experts to answer. No science or scientist can find any science in such predictions although may find enough wonderment.   

Siddha system is promoted as medical science in India and which pays rich tributes to many such superstitious beliefs.  Interestingly they also form part of the medical curriculum. They are indeed treated as medical science as well. All those who have also studied all such superstitious wisdom are doctors as per Indian law. 
 
Look at the amazing and advanced science of Siddha system of medicine.Siddha system has incredible insight and wisdom to predict the death of the patient with great accuracy i.e. from years to months to an hour. Not only the Siddha system could predict the death with such great precision, the system also says how useless the treatment can be to the patient under such circumstances. The question is whether the scientifically proven allopathic system has ever developed such science like Siddha system?

Siddha system uses simple Tridosha concept and measurement of Vata, Pitta and Kapha to calculate how close or how far away the patient is from his or her death.   

The larger question is why most of the Siddha vaidyas never ever use Tridosha diagnosis these days and if so, can they help the scientist to understand how such diagnosis is done?  

Look at the death clock of Siddha system of medicine

1.    Kapha nadi when beats twice than normal and vatha and pitha nadi decreases, the patient would die soon.
2.    When vatha and pitha completely reduces, Siddha system says there is no use in treating such patients as they would die soon.
3.    When pitha completely reduces or kapha alone increases, then there is no use of treating such patients.
4.    When kapha combines with pitha, death will come in a day and when pitha completely reduces, followed by kapha combining with vatha, death would occur immediately. 
5.    When the pulse beat gets faster in the hip, thigh and chest regions coupled with swellings, thirst & dehydrated tongue, they are symptoms of immediate death, according to Siddha. 
6.    When all the three pulses are not in the equilibrium state or decreases or beats like lizard’s tail, death will occur soon.
7.    When three pulses combine with each other and beats like insects or like spin top or like a beetle, death will occur definitely.
8.    When respiration occurs in both nostrils continuously for three days, death occurs in one year.
9.    When respiration occurs in both nostrils continuously for two days, death occurs in two years.
10.    When respiration occurs in both nostrils continuously for one day, death occurs in three years.
11.    When respiration occurs in single nostrils continuously for ten days, death occurs in six months.
12.    When respiration takes place through mouth – death will come in 3 months.
13.    When saliva intake is not possible and it spills on the body itself, death will come in 6 months.
14.    When one see own shadow dancing, sudden death will occur.
15.    When nostril, ear, tongue, teeth, mouth changes to black color, death will occur in 6 days.
16.    When three pulses lose its equilibrium, death occurs immediately. 
17.    In morning, the kapha pulse beats & at noon, pitha beats and at evening, vatha beats – death occurs in 4-5 days
18.    When three pulses beats like an ant walking on the floor, death would occur in 3 months
19.    When kapha beats like a horse, death will occur in one month.

Can any Siddha expert explain how scientific is their death clock? Do they have such unparallel competency and sensitivity in reading the pulses so accurately? If so, why most of them use a stethoscope and modern gadgets and engage in cross pathy? 

The concept of tridosha itself is imaginary and philosophical and no one could explain where they are located and how we can measure vatha, pitta, and kapha in our body?

People do argue that all the above descriptions were part of the ancient tradition and it was evolved several centuries ago.  Hence we should take only those useful contents and must discard that are useless. The question is how to separate, sort and identify what is useful and useless when the fundamentals, diagnostic procedures, disease descriptions, products that are called drugs fail the simple definition of drug or system of medicine? 

How cross pathy by several Siddha vaidyas in private practice will help us to identify what is useful and useless in Siddha system? Only when we follow and practice Siddha system sincerely, we can establish what is useful and what is useless. 

Another big question also we must address seriously. The question is how a system that is full of superstition, lack science, and evidence can have something useful to mankind?  

Entire AYUSH needs to be re-promoted as paramedical practice and must end cross pathy by AYUSH vaidyas in private practice if we are really interested in promoting AYUSH.  

More than drugs and doctors, paramedical experts, and paramedical services our society needs the most.  

Emerging lifestyle disorders warrant the role of AYUSH to remain healthy. Healthy people and those who are after allopathic treatment need the paramedical service of AYUSH. Time has come India must promote AYUSH as paramedical practice and not as medical science. Similarly, cross pathy and quackery should not be legalized.

There is one doctor for every 893 patients in the country if allopathic doctors and those practising Ayurveda, Unani and Homeopathy streams are considered together, Lok Sabha was informed on Friday. In a written reply, Minister of State for Health Faggan Singh Kulaste said there as 9.59 lakh registered allopathic doctors in the country and 6.77 lakh Ayurveda, Unani and Homeopathy (AUH) doctors.

“Assuming 80 per cent availability of doctors, it is estimated that around 7.67 lakh (allopathic) doctors may be actually available for service. It gives a doctor is to population ratio of 1:1681. If the allopathic and AUH streams are considered together, it gives a doctor population ratio of 1: 893,” the Minister said replying a question on whether the government has taken note of the World Health Organisation (WHO) report which stated that large number of allopathic doctors in the country do not have medical qualification and lower national level of density of all doctors, nurses and midwives.

He said that as per Indian Medical Council Act 1956, only the practitioners enrolled on the state medical register can practice medicine and any person who acts in contravention is liable to be punished with imprisonment and fine. Kulaste said there were 7,89,796 Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANM) and 17,93,337 registered nurse and registered midwives (RN&RM) in the country.

“Assuming 80 per cent availability of ANMs and 60 per cent availability of RN&RMs, there would be 17.10 lakh nursing personnel in service in the country which gives a nurse population ratios of 1:748,” the Minister said.
