Medical products and practices that are not part of standard care is called alternative medicine. Standard care is what medical doctors and allied health professionals, such as nurses and physical therapists, practice. Alternative medicine is used in the place of standard medical care.
HERBAL: The use of plants to heal is probably as old as human kind. Virtually every culture in the world has relied on herbs & plants to treat illness. Many people are seeking a return to herbal remedies because they perceive these remedies as being less potent than prescription drugs and as being free of adverse side effects.
UNANI: According to the principles of unani medicine, disease is a natural process. Its symptoms are the reactions of the body to the disease.
SIDDHA: Siddha System of Medicine in an ancient Science, which belongs to Dravidian culture. It is very useful in maintenance and restoration of good health. Siddha system accounted for total 4448 disease symptoms and its cure. Thousands of herbs and mineral were Included in Siddha system providing good and easy management of chronic to degenerative, viral to cardiac disease.
HOMEOPATHY: Homeopathic remedies are typically derived from plants, herbs, minerals, or animal products. After being crushed and dissolved in alcohol or water, the selected substance undergoes a long process of dilution and succession (a process that involves vigorous shaking of the solution). The solution is then stored.
ACCUPUNCTURE: Acupuncture technique means penetrating the acupoints with hair thin, sterile, disposable, stainless needles to dissolve the obstructions along the meridians.
ACCUPRESSURE: Acupressure is similar in practice to acupuncture, but no needles are involved.

Traditional Healing Practices mainly emphasis on Sikkim :
Definition of Traditional medicine:
The World Health Organisation has referred to these systems as “holistic”- i.e., “that of viewing man in his totality within a wide ecological spectrum, and of emphasising the view that ill health or disease is brought about by an imbalance, or disequilibrium of man in his total ecological system and not only by the causative agents and pathogenic evolution”.
Basically, there are two systems of health care in the developing world: one is traditional and the other is Western in derivation.
Traditional medicine include all kinds of folk medicine, unconventional medicine and indeed any kind of therapeutic method that had been handed down by the tradition of a community or ethnic group.
Alternative or Complimentary therapies were in practise long before conventional medicines came into being. Here we give a perspective of what are these therapies and the timeline

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

3. Indian system of
medicine
• . India has the rich legacy of customary
medication and the conventional
medicinal services framework
• Ayurvedic arrangement of drug built up a
broad utilization of pharmaceutical from
plants dating from no less than 1000 B.C.
• Western pharmaceutical consistent to
demonstrate the impact of old practices.
Ex: cardiovascular
glycoside from Digitalis pup urea, Morphine
from Papavera samnifera.etc
4. AYURVEDIC MEDICINES
• Ayurvedic medication (likewise called Ayurveda) is one of
the world's most seasoned therapeu¬tic frameworks
• It began in India and has advanced there more than a
large number of years
• In the United States, Ayurvedic prescription is viewed as
correlative and elective drug
• Advancement in various societies and separated from
regular drug
• Precedents of entire therapeutic frameworks incorporate
conventional Chinese pharmaceutical, Ayurvedic
prescription, Homeopathy and Naturopathy
• Utilized through home grown back rub, squeezing,
rubbing, and moving muscles and other delicate tissues
of the body, utilizing the hands and fingers
• The treatment expanded the stream of blood and oxygen
to the rubbed territory
5. Ayurvedic Medicine in
India
• Ayurvedic medication, as honed in India, is one of the most seasoned frameworks of solution on the planet
• Numerous Ayurvedic rehearses prior composed records and were passed on by listening in on others' conversations
• Two old books, written in Sanskrit over 2,000 years prior, are viewed as the pharmaceutical—Caraka Samhita and Sushruta
Samhita
• writings portray eight parts of Ayurvedic solution
• Internal medicine
• Surgery
• Treatment of head and neck disease
• Gynaecology, obstetrics, and paediatrics
• Toxicology
• Psychiatry
• Care of the elderly and rejuvenation
• Sexual vitality.
6. UNANII
SYSTEM
OF
MEDICINE
• Unani arrangement of solution is begun in Greece by the Greek scholar,
doctor Hippocrates (460-377 B.C)
• The hypothetical casing work of Unani solution depends on the lessons of
Hippocrates
• After him, various other Greek researchers took after the framework consider.
Among them Galen (131-212 A.D) was one to settle its establishment, on
which Arab doctors like Razzes (850-925 A.D) and Avicenna (980-1037 A.D)
built as forcing structure
• Unani drug got its significance among alternate frameworks of medication in
Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Persia, India, China and other Middle East and Far East
nations
• In India, Arabs presented Unani arrangement of solution, and soon it advanced
in India
• Unani drug trusts in advancement of wellbeing, anticipation of sickness and fix
• Soundness of human depends on the six basics
• environmental air, beverages and sustenance, rest and alertness,
discharge and maintenance, physical movement and rest and mental
action and rest.
7. HOMEOPATHIC SYSTEM OF
MEDICINE
• Homeopathy may be a specialised system of medicine,
developed by Dr prophetChristian Friedrich Hahnemann
(1755- 1843),
• A general MD, chemist and a health care
provider, supported concept of healing:
• similia similibus curantur, which suggests ‘Likes are cured by
likes’. Homois suggests that like (similar) and pathos suggests
thattreatment.
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF HOMEOPATHY
• Homeopathy as a science of medical treatment has a
philosophy of its own
• Therapeutics is based on certain fundamental principles that
are quite distinct and different between from those of other
school of medical science
• These fundamental principles were discussed by Hahnemann in
different sections of his medicine and philosophy.
8. They are as follows:
Law of similia.
Law of simplex.
Law of minimum.
Drug proving.
Drug dynamization or potentiation.
Vital force.
Acute and chronic disease.
Individualization.
Direction of cure.
9. AROMA
THERAPHY
• The word Aroma theraphy implies treatment utilizing
fragrances
• It alludes to the utilization of fundamental oils in
Holistic mending
• it enhance wellbeing and enthusiastic prosperity, and
in reestablishing harmony to the body
• Fundamental oils are sweet-smelling characters
removed from plants, blooms, trees, natural product,
bark, grasses and seeds
• There are in excess of 150 kinds of oils that can be
separated
• Fundamental oils get assimilated into our body and
apply an impact on it. The deposit gets scattered
from the body normally. They can likewise influence
our brain and feelings
• They enter the body in three different ways: by
inward breath, assimilation and utilization.
Synthetically, fundamental oils are a blend of natural
mixes like ketones, terpenes, esters, liquor, aldehyde
and 100 of other natural atoms which are to a great
degree hard to order, as they are little and complex
10. Some of the common essential oil
used in Aroma-therapy
Clary-sage (saliva scared)
Eucallyptus (eucalyptus
globules)
Geraanium (pelargonium
graveolens)
Lavvender (citrus lemon)
Pepppermint (mentha pipertia)
11. SIDDHHA
SYSTEM OF
MEDICINE
• Siddha medication is drilled in southern India. The source of the
Tamil dialect is credited to the sage Agasthya, and the root of
Siddha solution is likewise ascribed to him
• There is say of mercury, sulfur, copper, arsenic and gold utilized a
helpful operators
PRINCIPLE OF SIDDHA SYSTEM OF MEDICINE
• There are 5 Major components : Mann (strong), Neer (liquid),
Thee (radions), Vaayu (gas) and Agasum (ether)
• Earth, water, fire, air and ether are indication of five components
• The individuals made up these five components detached mix,
the physiological capacity in the body is interceded by three
substances (dravyas), which are comprised of the five
components
• They are vatham, pitham and karpam
• In every last cell of the body these three doshas exist together
and work agreeably.
12. The seven dhatus are as follows:
Rasa (lymph).
Kurudhi (blood).
Tasai (muscle).
Kozhupu (adipose tissue).
Ezhumpu (bone).
Majjai (marrow).
Sukkilam and Artavam (male and
female hormones)
13. KIDNEY
• Kidney is a vital organ that removes waste products in the blood and
also regulates fluid volume in the body
• The basic entities of the kidneys are called nephrons, which filter the
blood and remove the waste products through urine
• The body’s urinary system is made together with the two ureters,
bladder, the single urethra and the kidneys
• Human beings, and all other vertebral species, typically have two
kidneys
• In the body kidneys are dark red in colour and have a shape of beans in
which one side is convex, or rounded, and the other is concave
• The adult human kidneys are about 10 to 13 cm (4 to 5 inches) long
and about 5 to 7.5 cm (2 to 3 inches) wide with the size of a computer
mouse.
• Kidney is present in a thin fibrous capsule which is adherent at hilum
14. • Cut surface of the kidney is made up of well
demarcated peripheral cortex and inner
medulla in which the cortex is 1.2 to 1.5 cm
in thickness showing striations called
medullary rays formed by the collecting
tubules, ascending limbs and straight
portions of the proximal convoluted tubules
• The medulla is composed of several cone
shaped renal pyramids, whose apex is called
papilla is related to a calyx
• 2 to 3 major calyces form funnel shaped
dilated proximal part of the ureter called
pelvis.
• Major calyce is subdivided into 3 to 4 minor
calyces into which the papillae project
15. Function of the
kidney
• The kidneys primary function is to eliminate the poisonous wastes from
the blood
• The nitrogen containing compounds urea and uric acid are chief among
these waste products
• Life threatening diseases occur when large quantities of waste products
accumulate in the blood Stream
• Fortunately, a healthy kidney can easily clear the body of these
substances.
Kidneys serve multiple functions, including the following:
Excretion of metabolic waste products and foreign chemicals
Regulation of water and electrolyte balance
Regulation of body fluid osmolarity and electrolyte concentrations
Regulation of arterial pressure
Regulation of acid –base balance
Secretion ,metabolism and excretion of hormones
Gluconeogenesis
17. Diuretics and its importance
Diuretics are agents which are acts on kidney to
promote the excretion of sodium and water in
urine
Diuretics promote the removal from the body
of excess water, salts, poisons, and
accumulated metabolic products for water and
ionic balance
Diuretics not only alter the excretion of Na+
but also may modify renal handling of other
cations ( K + , H+ , Ca2
+ and Mg2
+), anions ( Cl-,
HCO3
– and H2PO4
- ), and uric acid. In addition,
diuretics may alter renal hemodynamics
activation on indirectly
They serve to rid the body of excess fluid
(edema) that accumulates in the tissues owing
to various disease states
Diuretics are involved some pathological
condition such as Lower high blood pressure,
Reduce fluid retention, edema, swollen ankles,
provide relief from the pain, burning sensation
associated with cystitis, Heart Failure,
Hypertension, Liver Cirrhosis, Kidney Diseases,
Pulmonary and Systemic Edema
They decrease the reabsorption of Na+ and
(usually) Cl from the filtrate, increased water
loss being secondary to the increased excretion
of NaCl (natriuresis)
This can be achieved by: a direct action on the
cells of the nephron indirectly, by modifying
the content of the filtrate Classes of diuretics
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors e.g.
Acetazolamide, Dichlorphenamide Loop
Diuretics e.g. Furosemide, Ethacrynic acid
Thiazides e.g. Chlorothiazide, Benzthiazide
Potassiumsparing diuretics e.g. Spironolactone
Osmotic e.g. Mannitol, Glycerol.
The well documented uses of plants and its
formulated poly herbal products are used as
Diuretics for various clinical condition such as
Lower high blood pressure, Reduce fluid
retention, edema, swollen ankles, provide
relief from the pain, burning sensation
associated with cystitis, Heart Failure,
Hypertension, Liver Cirrhosis, Kidney Diseases,
Pulmonary and Systemic Edema.
18. Pathophysiology of Diuresis
Diuretics play an important
role in the management of
oedema and hypertension
This function is mainly an
increases the excretion in net
negative water in urine and
maintain solute balance in
body
The proximal convoluted
tubule reabsorbs about 50-66
% of fluid by both active and
passive processes
The thin descending limb of
Loop of Henle allows osmotic
water abstraction as it is
highly permeable to water
and impermeable to solutes
The reduced water
absorption from the
descending limb of Loop of
Henle has an important role
in over-all enhanced
condition of diuresis.
The thin ascending limb of
Loop of Henle is
impermeable to water and
highly permeable to chloride
and sodium therefore
diuretics show no effects.

25. AIM
• The present study is done for
phytochemical investigation
and evaluation of diuretic
activity of Tinospora
cardifolia on these plants.
26. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The objectives of the present study are:
The extensive review of literature on Tinospora
cardifolia
Successive solvent extractions of Tinospora cardifolia
Systematic phytochemical investigation of Tinospora
cardifolia
Acute toxicity studies of all extracts.
Detailed study of the diuretic activity of the root of
Tinospora cardifolia.
27. NEED
FOR THE
STUDY
• In spite of tremendous advances in the
field of medicine there is no truly
satisfactory drug for the treatment of
kidney disorders. The possible treatment
would be either being surgical and
allopathic treatment. But this treatment
exhibits some serious side effects
(including reoccurrence in case of renal
calculi), thereby keeping the problem
unsolved. Moreover this treatment is
relatively costly and requires expert hands
and availability of appropriate equipments.
This has given rise to stimulation in the
search for investigating natural resources
showing diuretic and nephroprotective
activity.
28. NEED FOR THE STUDY
To explore the possibility of using the traditional medicines as diuretic agents with scientific
validation:
1) The modern medicine does not have satisfactorily control over kidney disorders.
2) The survey of literature reveals that the medicinal plant, Tinospora cardifolia has been used
traditionally for cramps, inflammatory tumour, convulsions.
3) However, the diuretic activity of Tinospora cardifolia has not been scientifically investigated.
Hence, the present study is undertaken for the phytochemical investigation of the root of
Tinospora cardifolia and to evaluate its traditionally claimed activities in Wistar albino rats.
