Who Wrote the Earliest Ayurvedic Book on Pediatrics? Curious About Its Relevance Today - #1505
I’ve recently been reading more about Ayurveda and its approach to childhood health, and I came across mentions of an ancient text that focuses specifically on pediatrics. I think it’s called Kaumarbhritya, but I’m not sure who actually wrote it. I’ve heard that this text deals with everything from infant care to childhood diseases, and I’m curious about how it compares to modern pediatric practices. I’ve been thinking about using some Ayurvedic remedies for my child’s recurrent colds and digestive issues, and I’d love to know more about the origins of Ayurvedic pediatrics. So, who wrote the earliest Ayurvedic book specifically on pediatrics, and how has it influenced modern approaches to children’s health?
