It needs to be studied worldwide with the help of contemporary explanation of medicine and treatment. Organic Herbal Products undergo a scientific research for its own safety and quality. Ayurvedic herbal care needs to be connected globally with scientific as well as professional approach. Ayurvedic sector would progress rapidly and achieve the greatest height in medical science if it is blended with contemporary ideas. The growth would be more rapid and beyond recognition if it continuously addresses the need for scientific evidence. The good agricultural and manufacturing practices for Ayurvedic drugs should be in accordance with globally accepted norms.
