Abstract
Endocrine disorders are most common in India, of which thyroid disorders represent a major subset. Thyroid dysfunction is rising at an alarming rate in the Indian population. Hypothyroidism & hyperthyroidism constitute the maximum percentage of thyroid disease in India. The thyroid gland fails to produce enough thyroid hormone due to structural or functional impairment. The incidence of thyroid disorders is increasing daily, so there is a need to increase demand to treat thyroid disease by the Ayurvedic method, as they are entirely safe and natural. In this article, effort is made to review some Ayurvedic diets, such as medicines, yoga, and pranayama, towards the correction of tridosha and the function of the thyroid gland.
