Abstract

nUnani medicine, a traditional healing system primarily reliant on herbal remedies, finds its roots in the ancient wisdom of Greek philosopher Hippocrates (460–377 BC) and his associates. Its evolution and prominence, however, owe much to the support of Persian and Arab empires before making its way to the Indian subcontinent around the mid-14th century. Unani practitioners believe that each individual possesses a unique temperament shaped by the interplay of four fundamental humoral combinations. This temperament is influenced by a variety of factors, including age, mental state, local climate, and environmental conditions. Treatment in Unani medicine revolves around tailoring diet and pharmacological interventions to align with the patient’s temperament. The system places great emphasis on promoting health and employs a range of approaches such as regimental therapy, dietetics, and pharmacology to manage diseases. Numerous clinical studies have validated the effectiveness of Unani remedies, often with minimal side effects. Recent efforts have focused on standardizing, quality control, and toxicity assessment of herbal drugs, as well as validating formulations listed in the Unani Pharmacopeia of India. Despite the system’s proven benefits in healthcare, it remains underutilized. This article provides an insight into the core principles and historical context of Unani medicine, while also shedding light on its quality control measures and its valuable contributions to the healthcare landscape in India.
