Abstract
Many people believe in nature cure. Mahatma Gandhi also believed in this system. I may be pardoned to say that no system of medicine is as near to nature as Ayurveda and really speaking Ayurveda is the best nature cure that man has ever invented. Brihattrayi is the collection of basic classic books for ayurvedic practioners and researchers from very begning. Haritaki is an important herbal drug has been used successfully by many more ayurvedic practioners from very begning in prameharoga (diabetes mellitus).The present encyclopedic study aims to highlighten the therapeutic value of Haritaki (Terminalia chebula Retz.) in reference to prameha rogaand helps to new researchers and practioners .
Key Words: Ayurveda, Haritaki, Brihattrayi, Encyclopedic, Prameharogaetc.
