Ayurvedic Health Advisor

Abstract

The rising prevalence of lifestyle-related health issues has increased the demand for preventive and holistic healthcare solutions. Ayurveda, a traditional system of medicine, emphasizes balance in daily routine, diet, and lifestyle to maintain long-term well-being. However, access to authentic Ayurvedic guidance remains limited for the general population due to lack of awareness, expert availability, and complexity of traditional concepts. This paper presents the design and implementation of an Ayurvedic Health Advisor, a digital wellness advisory system that provides personalized Ayurvedic recommendations based on user-reported symptoms, lifestyle habits, and basic Dosha assessment. The system uses a structured knowledge base and rule-based recommendation engine to deliver diet suggestions, daily routine guidance, lifestyle modifications, and safe home remedies. The platform emphasizes preventive healthcare, explainable recommendations, and ethical boundaries by advising professional consultation for serious symptoms. Experimental evaluation using test scenarios and user feedback indicates that the system provides relevant and understandable wellness guidance, demonstrating the feasibility of integrating traditional healthcare knowledge with modern digital platforms.
