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.
Observational research on the effect of an Ayurvedic treatment protocol in patients of hereditary pancreatitis
Hereditary pancreatitis (HP) is a chronic genetic disorder with limited treatment options. This study evaluated the efficacy of a year-long Ayurvedic Treatment Protocol (ATP) in 151 patients, 88 of whom completed the program. The treatment included Ayurvedic formulations, dietary adjustments, and discontinuation of pancreatic enzymes. Results showed a 92.8% reduction in attack frequency and a 98.7% decrease in hospitalizations (p < 0.0001), with no adverse effects. ATP demonstrated safety and effectiveness in managing HP, suggesting the need for further research.
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.
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.
Anti-Inflammatory Properties of a Processed Copper Complex in L-Arginine Induced Pancreatitis-Two Experimental Studies
Recurrent Acute/Chronic Pancreatitis (RA/CP) is a progressive pancreatic inflammation, often with unclear causes. An Ayurvedic Mineral Complex (AMC) showed promise in reducing exacerbations and hospitalizations in pancreatitis patients. In a rat model, AMC was well tolerated, reduced oxidative stress and inflammation, and protected the pancreas at doses of 25 mg/kg and 19 mg/kg.
Case studies on prophylactic ayurvedic therapy in migraine patients
Ayurvedic treatment has shown effectiveness in managing migraines. A protocol (ATP) with herbo-mineral formulations, regular meals, and sleep reduced migraine frequency and intensity in a study of nine patients. Five reported significant improvement after 120 days, with no serious side effects. Ongoing research is further validating the findings.
