Ingredients

• Bauhinia variegata (Kanchnar): Research highlights antibacterial, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities. Studies report bioactive compounds in bark and leaves with potential relevance in skin health and wound management (Mishra 2013; Sharma 2019; Tabassum 2014).
  
• Commiphora mukul (Guggul): Pharmacological studies emphasize its anti-inflammatory and lipid-lowering effects. Clinical use includes nodulocystic acne management, with trials showing comparable outcomes to tetracycline in small groups (Sarup 2015; Nille 2025).
  
• Zingiber officinale (Ginger): Contains phenolic and flavonoid compounds with notable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. Studies also show potential benefits in chronic inflammatory conditions (Ongtanasup 2024).
  
• Cinnamomum verum (Cinnamon): Essential oils demonstrate antifungal, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties with potential applications in metabolic and inflammatory balance (Diniz do Nascimento 2020).
  
• Cinnamomum tamala (Tejpatra): Reported to have antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects. Clinical dermocosmetic studies with leaf extracts note positive effects on skin parameters (Arshad 2020).
  
• Phyllanthus emblica (Amla): Rich in vitamin C and polyphenols; research indicates antihyperlipidemic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity, with roles in immune and digestive support (Gul 2022).
  
• Piper longum (Pipali): Traditionally used for respiratory and digestive issues. Modern research documents anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic effects, linked to alkaloids such as piperlongumine (Yadav 2020; Phuong Tran 2024).
  
• Piper nigrum (Black pepper / Kali Mirch): Contains piperine, studied for antioxidant, bioenhancing, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulating properties (Yadav 2023).
  
• Terminalia bellirica (Baheda): Used in Ayurveda as part of Triphala. Reported immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and digestive benefits (Belapurkar 2014).
  
• Terminalia chebula (Haritaki): Studies note anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and gastroprotective activities; Ayurveda describes it as a rejuvenative and cleansing herb (Hassan Bulbul 2022).
  
• Elettaria cardamomum (Cardamom): Reviewed for antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and cardioprotective properties (Yahyazadeh 2021).
