The scientists associated with Patanjali stated that their study on the potential of Special Chyawanprash to protect cells under stress conditions, preserve muscle function and enhance longevity has been published in the international journal, ‘Experimental Gerontology’. Hailing this as an achievement, Acharya Balkrishna said that it marked an important step towards establishing Ayurveda as an evidence-based system of medicine among the scientific community globally.
“For centuries, millions of Indians have valued Chyawanprash as a fundamental of immunity, longevity and holistic well-being. Classical Ayurvedic literature describes Chyawanprash as Rasayana, a rejuvenation formulation that revitalises the body, mind and vitality. Today, Patanjali scientists have substantiated this enduring traditional knowledge with modern scientific ideas and wisdom, bringing this ancient narrative back to life through research and technology,” he added.
Talking about the study, the chief scientist at Patanjali Research Foundation, Anurag Varshney said that the Special Chyawanprash significantly reduces heat-stress- induced cellular damage in the experimental model, thereby increasing lifespan, improving feeding behavior and enhancing muscle mobility and functionality.
