Hungary has a rich tradition of local herbal medicines and thermal spas. The Hungarian proverb ‘F} uben faban orvossag, means ‘There is medicine in weeds and trees’. This resonates with Sanskrit quote by of Jeevaka ‘nasti moolam anaushdham’, which means ‘There is no plant which is not medicine’. Historical records between 9th to 13th centuries reveal that Hungarian folk medicine tradition used plants for health benefits. The first Hungarian pharmacopoeia published in 1879 and Dr. Ervin Baktay's book ‘India’ published in 1931 prominently refers to Ayurveda. However, during the last six decades, Ayurveda has not got much recognition in Hungary.
