Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: archive.org: Vagbhata’s Ashtanga Hridaya Samhita (first 5 chapters)Ahṛdya (अहृद्य) refers to that which is “unwholesome for the stomach”, as mentioned in verse 5.26-27 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] among the (different kinds of milk [viz., payas]), [...] unwholesome for the stomach [viz., ahṛdya], however, (and) warming is sheep’s milk [viz., āvika] (it is) eliminative of wind-diseases (and) productive of hiccup, dyspnea, choler, and phlegm”.
Note: Ahṛdya (“unwholesome for the stomach”) has been rendered by sñiṅ gnod (“damages the stomach”); as in vv. 1 & 10, hṛd ought to be understood in the sense of “stomach” rather than “heart”, which does not fit the context.
Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
