Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Concept

A passage-based question is answered from the claim explicitly stated in the passage, not from outside assumptions.

Personalized treatment means adapting medical care to the constitution, characteristics, and needs of each individual.

Application

The passage says that every individual is unique, has a specific mental and physical constitution, and that Ayurveda has historically advocated personalized medicine. It also explains that medical intervention should be tailored to individual needs. Therefore, the supported choice is personalized treatment.

Contrast

  • A similar treatment for all individuals conflicts with the passage's emphasis on individual uniqueness.

  • Only a preventive approach is too narrow because the passage describes a broader individualized healthcare system.

  • Allopathic treatment is a different medical tradition and is not what the passage says Ayurveda advocates.

Cross-check

Replacing personalized care with any other choice removes the passage's direct link between individual constitution and tailored intervention. Thus, Ayurveda advocates personalized treatment.
