# Ayurveda Guide

> Ayurveda Guide (https://guide-ayurveda.com/) is an independent English-language information site about Ayurveda, the traditional medicine of India: doshas, herbs and spices, recipes, rituals, nutrition and buying guides. It is published by Clem corp (Clément Lacaille, sole proprietorship, Tech-Bharat brand, Le Perreux-sur-Marne, France) for readers who want to understand Ayurveda without miracle claims: every page separates tradition, what published studies show, and the precautions. It is not a medical website: it gives no treatment advice and refers readers to a health professional whenever symptoms, medication or pregnancy are involved.
