Why most of the allopathy doctors are against baba ramdev? Is that they are worried about their shops will be closed or patanjali products will reduce their income? Some hidden intention is certain. Patanjali research is of the world class. Even america is trying to follow certain things from patanjali. Be honest. Whenever I ask any MBBS doctor about paranayam or patanjali product they try to avoid it or give negative opinion?

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for your query. First and foremost it is wrong to say that all allopathic more appropriately modern medicine practicing doctors are against Baba Ramdev. Patanjali products I am sure are very good. However, what is objected is claims made about with those (some of the products) almost every disease can be cured. For example some Ayurvedic products claim diabetes can be cured. But that does not happen. I treat a number of patients at my clinic and online also. Some of the patients who say they have shifted to only Ayurvedic drugs for diabetes come back with blood glucose levels of 250 to 400 mg. As regards the research, particularly for any drug to be claimed as effective there have to be clinical trials that too double blind and cross over studies. None of the Ayurvedic products including those of Patanjali's have done such studies. They only sight their old scriptures. In India alone there are close to 7 crore diabetic patients. I have not come across a single case which has been cured by these products. As regards yogasanas and pranayam, these are really good for every ine for maintaining good health. I myself advocate Pranayam to many of my patients particularly those who have repiratory allegy, and even bronchial asthma. Yogasanas, help in mentaining healthy body. Some studies have shown beneficial effects even in cardiac conditions. I myself practice pranayam. Most objections are for some unsubstantiated tall claims. India is too big a country, for any one to affect others business. Thanks.
