Abstract


Traditional medicine has been the treatment of choice for mankind since ancient days. In this modern era of mechanical life, children avoid to play on ground and not socializing with family and friends. Administration of Suvarnaprashana – processed gold in paediatric care, is a unique practise mentioned in ayurveda by Acharya Kashyapa, thousands of years back. It helps the benefits of improving intellect, digestion & metabolism, physical and mental strength and even life span. Traditionally, Shuddha Suvarna has been advised to be emulsified with Madhu and Ghruta to obtain a fine colloidal suspension. Suvarnaprashana is becoming popular , being administered on Pushya Nakshtra of every month in india. It needs to be popularized  and promoted as a protective and preventive therapy in today’s era.
