Abstract:
A traditional Ayurvedic polyherbal remedy known for its immunity-boosting and restorative qualities is chyavanprash. The main ingredient, Emblica officinalis (Amla), which is a rich source of vitamin C and strong antioxidants, is a synergistic blend of herbs, spices, minerals, and natural sweeteners. To improve absorption and palatability, the formulation usually consists of over 40 herbs, including Withania somnifera, Piper longum, Tinospora cordifolia, and Cyperus rotundus, mixed with ghee, honey, and jaggery. As a Rasayana, chyavanprash improves respiratory health, increases immunity to infections, delays the aging process, and fosters vigor.
Its function in bolstering the immune system by regulating humoral and cell-mediated responses has been confirmed by contemporary scientific research. Given the complexity of the components and preparation, Chyavanprash must be standardized and quality controlled to guarantee both therapeutic efficacy and safety. In the contemporary era of lifestyle-related health issues, this study emphasizes the pharmacological data, formulation method, traditional wisdom, and phytochemical ingredients that support the use of chyavanprash as a natural immunity booster.
Keywords :Chyavanprash,Withania somnifera,Standardization,phytochemical,respiratory.
