Abstract
Epidemiology, the essential aspect of community medicine, is pivotal in understanding and controlling health-related states or events in populations. The Concept of Epidemiology and its principles in Ayurveda, apart from Janapadodwamsa, is a lesser-explored domain. Employing an advanced epidemiological model encompassing Time (Kala), Environment (Desha), Host (Purusha), and Causative factors (Nidanas), including Aharaja, Viharaja, Manaika, and Agantuja factors along with modes of transmission and factors influencing human health in Ayurveda, the analysis unravel the hidden doctrine of Epidemiology in Ayurveda. This study is a modest attempt to understand the epidemiological concepts mentioned in Ayurveda, shedding light on their potential contributions to contemporary public health understanding and programme planning.
