This book presents evidence-based translational research in Nutri-Ayur through the integration of traditional knowledge of Ayurveda, Genomics, and modern medicine. It aims to provide scientific evidence for the principles and concepts of Ayurveda for a predictive, personalized, and preventive approach to health and diseases. The chapter also discusses the formulation strategies of Nutri-Ayur products and associated challenges. The book also covers the role of Nutri-Ayur products in the treatment of nutritional disorders/deficiencies in children and cognition and memory dysfunction. The chapter also reviews the potential role of Nutri-Ayur products as immunomodulators and energy enhancers. The books also examine the Nutri-Ayur products that significantly possess contraceptive properties. The book also includes translational research techniques based on a systems biology approach coupled with the application of the latest technologies such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics/metabonomics, automation, and computational strategies for innovative drug design.
