Wheatgrass juice is extracted from very young shoots of wheat. It is a good source of non-calorie nutrition. Wheatgrass is high in vitamins A, C and E and essential minerals Iron, Magnesium and Calcium. Wheatgrass juice also contains fibres that aid normal digestion.
Animal studies have indicated wheatgrass juice as adjuvant in the management of blood  lipid imbalance. A human study done in India on hyperlipidaemic women showed that supplementation with  wheatgrass powder for 10 weeks led to reduction in total blood cholesterol levels.
Studies done on isolated cancer cells have indicated a possible usefulness of wheatgrass juice in the prevention and management of oral , cervical, breast and blood cancers. A human trial done on people undergoing chemotherapy, wheatgrass juice reduced risk of impaired bone marrow function. This meant that participants consuming wheatgrass juice had less hances of their bone marrow losing its function.
Animal studies have also pointed towards blood sugar lowering and weight reducing effects of wheatgrass juice. Wheatgrass has been indicated to be useful for reducing haematological toxicity occurring due to chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. Wheatgrass has been shown to reduce the requirements of blood transfusion and improved quality of life of children with thalassemia.

Improva tulsi-curcumin drops is made using tulsi essential oil and curcumin enriched haldi extract. it is further enriched with ginger extract and black pepper extracts. turmeric is well known through its active ingredient curcumin. we have used turmeric extract that is enriched with curcumin. purified curcumin(actually actually a mixture of three related molecules, curcumin i, ii and iii) is very poorly absorbed by the body and large doses of this costly molecule are needed to achieve the desired effects. in improva tulsi-curcumin drops, the curcumin is assisted by other haldi constituents and also the pepper. the piperine from pepper is a known bioenhancer, molecules that increase absorption of active compounds by the body.

Components of improva tulsi-curcumin drops are known from literature to work as following:

• Anti-infective: tulsi is known to inhibit several viruses in lab based studies such as cold and flue viruses and is also shown to stimulate immunity.
• Fibrosis: oral sub-mucous fibrosis (osmf) is progressive hardening of oral cavity found among areca nut (supari) consuming population. it progressively prevents mouth opening and significantly increases risk of oral cancer. in a study done on 41 patients of osmf using turmeric and tulsi powders (we have used extracts) triturated in glycerin, there was a significant improvement in mouth opening and a significant reduction in burning sensation
• Anti-inflammatory:  turmeric, mainly through curcumin, and tulsi are known to be anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory.
• As topical antifungal: tulsi leaves extract has shown to inhibit clinical isolates (isolated from patient skins) of various dermatophytic fungi (those that cause skin infection) belonging to species of the genera trychophyton, microsporum and epidermophyton. some well-known examples are called tinea (ringworm) infections e.g. tinea pedis (athlete’s foot), tine cruris (jock itch), etc. tulsi essential oil has also shown promising anti-fungal activity against candida albicans and c. tropicalis, two most common causative agents of candidiasis. candidiasis is a fungal infection of mouth, vagina and frequently affects people with aids and those undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. improva tulsi-curcumin drops may act as supportive in the management of skin infections.

Spirulina powder is a dried cell mass of algae Spirulina platensis. It is a vegetable with very high protein content!!!. Around 60% by weight of Spirulina is protein and is used as a food in some parts of Africa and Mexico. Around 1% of spirulina by weight is phycocyanobilin which gives spirulina anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Spirulina is also a good source of gamma linoleic acid (GLA) and the antioxidant beta carotene.

Spirulina may be effective as a supportive in

• Non alcoholic fatty liver treatment
• Rhinitis management
• Removal of chronically assimilated Arsenic
• Blood lipid management

It may also support

• Blood pressure management
• Diabetes management
• Isometric exercise training
• There are a several human studies reported on spirulina

Human studies on spirulina

• In patients with metabolic syndrome (bad lipid, raised blood glucose, high BP, obesity) spirulina consumption reduced triglycerides by up to 10 to 15%. Suggested dose: 2-2-2 cap after food 4 week.
• Spirulina was very effective in providing symptomatic relief in allergic rhinitis (nasal discharge, sneezing, nasal congestion and itching) Suggested dose: 2-2 cap after food 6 month.
• Spirulina was also shown to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive people. Suggested dose: 2-2-2 after food 4 week.
• Spirulina consumption has also favourable effects on blood glucose regulation in type II diabetics.
• Spirulina together with zinc at low doses may prevent and treat chronic Arsenic poisoning.

Suggested dose: 1 cap per day after food

• A few case studies show spirulina supplement at high doses to reduce liver fat deposition in non-alcoholic fatty acid patients
• High doses of spirulina powder are also shown to increase muscular endurance.
• Low dose are shown to be effective in increasing the isometric muscle strength and isometric muscle endurance. Suggested dose: 2-2 cap 2 months.

A note on Arsenic poisoning:-A news report in 2017 suggested that around 19% Indians drank water contaminated with above permissible levels of heavy metal Arsenic. This problem is likely has intensified in the past couple of years, possibly due to secondary source of Arsenic such as food prepared from the contaminated water, farms irrigated with contaminated water. The source of Arsenic is likely the deep underground as well as synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Continuous high consumption of Arsenic can lead to cancers of skin, bladder, kidney, lungs, etc. with some other not so serious effects such as skin discolouration. There is also some link between onset of diabetes, hypertension and reproductive disorders with continuous consumption of Arsenic contaminated water and food. Spirulina, when added to every diet along with zinc, may effectively reduce the Arsenic load on the body.

Imcolostra is a spray dried cow (bovine) colostrum supplement available as vegetarian capsule. (The IgG antibody content not less than 22%). Cow colostrum is not a milk but an anti-body rich secretion that is rich in growth factors, hormones, vitamins and anti-mcrobial peptides while being very poor in lactose. The contents help the new-born calf against microbes.  Known as Go Piyush in Ayurveda, it has been consumed as Kharvas in India since ages. It is an excellent protein supplement. But beyond that several studies have corroborated traditional medicinal uses of cow colostrum. Imcolostra supplantation may be useful as Protein supplement Supportive in the management of diarrhoea Supportive in immunity. Supportive for keeping the gut healthy and non-leaky. As a supportive in athletes where it may help to increase strength and endurance, build lean muscle mass, burn body fat, shorten recovery time, accelerate healing of injuries and support immunity during recovery. In patients admitted to ICU colostrum reduced the gut leakage and suppressed diarrhoea after 10 days of colostrum consumption. Actively training athletes have generally increased leaky guts. One study showed a good reduction in the leaking. People who take pain killers like aspirin , ibuprofen have very leaky guts. Colostrum is found to be very useful in preventing this leakage during short term pain killer treatments ( 1 year).In a study done of children aged 2 to 5 years and suffering from bacterial/viral diarrhoea (due to rotavirus, Shigella, Salmonella, Cryptosporidia, etc) and/or respiratory infections (due to rhinovirus, Influenza virus, Staphylococcus bacteria, etc.) the colostrum supplement significantly reduced diarrhoea after 2 months while episodes of upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) reduced by more than 90% after 3 months. Athletes are very susceptible to respiratory infections during periods of intense training  and post competition period. Cow colostrum has shown to be effective in shortening  the duration and number of episodes of symptoms of URTI. Cow colostrum also probably has components that are prebiotic in nature.References: Eslamian G et al. Nutrition, 2019, 60, 106-111. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nut.2018.10.013 Halasa M. et al.

It is food supplement made from extracted Arjuna bark and supported by many Herbs chosen from Ayurvedic wisdom.

Rhudyamrut may be supportive in the management of

• High blood pressure
• Blood lipid imbalance

Components of Rhudyamrut may help it to

• Keep heart healthy
• Increase heart muscle anti-oxidant status
• Improve blood vessel health and blood circulation
• Improve digestion and gut health
• Improve good gut bacterial numbers
• Reduce chronic stress
• Increase heart capacity
• Bring feeling of wellbeing

Some key components of Rhudyamrut are shown by modern research to have several benefits:

• Arjuna bark: Arjuna is used in Ayurveda as a heart toninc. In diabetic and hypercholesterolemic patients Arjuna was shown to reduce total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C and increased the good cholesterol, i. e. HDL-C. In patients with stable angina, Arjuna reduced the anginal episodes, improved the performance of patients in the treadmill test, and improved the left ventricular ejection fraction; it also lowered systolic blood pressure and the body mass index.
• Animal studies showed Arjuna to protect animal hearts from toxin induced fibrosis, necrosis, oxidative stress, pathological hypertrophy, and preserve anti-oxidant status of the heart muscles. Arjuna was also shown to protect their heart from ischemia-reperfusion injury. It also preserved function of inner wall of the arteries.
• Gokharu: Gokharu fruits are traditionally used to increase urinary output, as cardiac and liver protectants. A study on more than 400 patients showed Gokharu to be an ideal supportive treatment for the management of angina pain and was well suited for chronic consumption without any side effects.
• Animal studies further increase the possible effectiveness of Gokharu. Saponins from Gokharu were shown to dilate blood vessels that supply blood to heart muscles and thus improved the nutrient delivery and waste product removal from heart muscles (improved coronary blood circulation). Animal studies also hinted towards Gokharu to be useful in high blood pressure management and diabetes management.
• Curry patta: Used traditionally in Tadka, this is a medicinally active herb. Post menopausal women are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. In a study done on post menopausal women with bad lipid levels, curry leaves increased the HDL-C and reduced LDL-C and triacyl glycerol.
• Clinical trials have shown that in older patients (> 50), consumption pf curry powder (3 to 15 gm) per for a month produced around 20% drop in the blood glucose values. The drop observed was both in fasting as well as in post lunch values
• Methi: Methi is shown in clinical trials to reduce blood glucose levels and help bring lipid parameters under control.
• Pomegranate peel: A human study showed pomegranate peel supplementation reduced both higher and lower blood pressures, reduced triglycerides, and increased the good high density
• lipoprotein-Cholesterol (HDL-C). A pilot study in use of peel in obese women with bad lipid profile showed a reduction in the cardiovascular disease risk factors. (upper blood pressure and Reactive Protein levels).
• Animals studies have hinted towards prebiotic effect of pomegranate peel.
• Punarnava: it is known traditionally as a diuretic. Various animal and in-vitro (test tube) studies have shown Punarnava to be useful in reducing blood glucose, stress (=adaptogen) and a cardioprotectant.
