Abstract : The foundation of the Unani medical system is the idea that the human body is a microcosm of the cosmos, and that maintaining its equilibrium is crucial to overall health. The balance of the four humors and other essential elements like fire, water, earth, and air are the main topics of this system. By using a holistic approach to therapy, the Unani pharmacopoeia is essential in establishing this equilibrium.
