Down syndrome also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder.


Down syndrome  also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder. It is typically associated with physical growth delays, characteristic facial features, and mild to moderate intellectual disability.

The average IQ of a young adult with Down syndrome is 50, equivalent to the mental age of an 8- or 9-year-old child, but this can vary widely.

Dr. Apal Antani spoke to Harita Mehta about the remedies and treatment for Down Syndrome in Ayurveda.
