Abstract

Birth is a rare opportunity given by nature to all living beings that appear in the world.  It is our duty to maintain health and protect the body from diseases. Diseases have arisen since the time of man's birth. Diseases are a source of pain for our body. It is customary to wish us to live without disease when others greet us. To live without disease is great wealth. The epics contain information about the definition of the disease, the causes of the onset of the disease, and the types of diseases.
