Significant Reduction of Carbohydrate 19-9 Antigen Levels in a Patient of Acute on Chronic Pancreatitis through Ayurvedic Treatment Protocol
A 52-year-old male with recurrent acute necrotizing pancreatitis showed poor response to conventional treatment, leading to weight loss and high CA 19-9 levels. Ayurvedic therapy, including herbal formulations, a balanced diet, and rest, normalized his CA 19-9 levels within 108 days, highlighting its potential for further study.
Integration of Ayurvedic formulations with iron folic acid in the treatment of nutritional anaemia among school going adolescents of Dehradun District
This study evaluated the effect of Ayurvedic preparations Sootshekhar Rasa (SR) and Sitopaladi Churna (SC) with iron and folic acid (IFA) on nutritional anaemia in 820 adolescents in Dehradun, India. After 90 days of treatment, all groups showed increased haemoglobin levels, with the best results in the group receiving SR + SC + IFA. No major side effects were reported, and the treatment led to sustainable improvements in anaemia.
Prevalence of Anemia among Pregnant Women and Adolescent Girls in 16 Districts of India
Nutritional anemia is widespread in India, affecting 84.9% of pregnant women and 90.1% of adolescent girls. Severe anemia is prevalent in both groups. The Government of India provides iron and folic acid to pregnant women, but no similar program exists for adolescent girls. Interventions should address iron, B12, and folic acid deficiencies.
Changing Demography of Pancreatitis Patients in India -A Hospital Based Study
Pancreatitis is rising globally, with major risk factors including alcohol, tobacco, and family history. A study of 800 patients in North India found higher incidences among non-alcoholic, non-tobacco users, and those with no family history. The disease mostly affected men (4.6:1) aged 19-45, particularly in the service class and students. Further research is needed to explore its causes and extent in the region.
Hepato-protective Effect of an Ayurvedic Formulation Prak-20 in CCl 4 Induced Toxicity in Rats: Results of Three Studies
Prak-20, an ayurvedic herbo-mineral formulation, was studied for its hepato-protective effects in rats. It showed no significant liver damage or elevated enzyme levels compared to controls. In higher doses, it reduced liver enzymes by up to 54% and minimized liver damage. These results suggest Prak-20 is effective in protecting the liver, with further research needed on its mechanism.
Transformation of Copper into therapeutic mineral complex following principles of Rasa Shastra
Rasa Shastra, an Ayurvedic branch, transforms toxic substances into safe therapeutics. A compound using Copper, Mercury, Sulphur, Luffa echinata, Clitoria ternatea, and lemon juice was effective in treating pancreatic disorders. The 2015-17 study developed standard procedures and analyzed the compound, revealing new mineral forms and no free metals. This demonstrates the potential of traditional methods in safely converting metals into effective treatments.
