Relevance of metal based Ayurvedic formulations in the management of recurrent acute/ chronic pancreatitis
This study reports on 250 cases of Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis (RAP) and Chronic Pancreatitis (CP) treated with an Ayurvedic herbo-mineral formulation, along with a balanced diet and lifestyle changes. Significant improvement was seen in patients who completed the treatment.
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.
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.
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.
CA19-9 LOWERING EFFECT OF AN AYURVEDIC MINERAL COMPLEX PREPARED USING COPPER, MERCURY AND SULPHUR
Rasa Shastra, an Ayurvedic practice using metals and minerals, has shown that Ayurvedic Mineral Complex (AMC) helps reduce elevated CA19-9 levels in pancreatitis patients. This suggests AMC could be explored as a preventive therapy for pancreatic cancer.
Demographic Pattern of Pancreatitis Patients in India – A Hospital-based Study
A hospital-based study on 2,050 pancreatitis patients across India found that 83% were male, with an average age of 24 years, and 75% aged between 19–45. Alcohol use was reported by 33.6% and tobacco by 18.4%, while genetic and gallstone-related causes accounted for 8.8% and 5% respectively. The findings suggest emerging lifestyle and regional risk factors, but broader studies are needed for definitive insights.
