Studies all over the world on the therapeutic use of antioxidants as
supplements has revealed their capacity to control inflammatory processes.
Amrita Bindu an Ayurvedic health food supplement has already shown to be an
antioxidant inducer and to combat free radical-mediated tissue damage studied
in rats. Amrita Bindu is a salt-spice herbal mixture designed for positive
health. It was tested as a supplement to therapy for a period of 12 months in
36 children suffering from asthma. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease
with excessive free radical generation in lungs and blood cells. The patients
were followed up by monitoring their clinical conditions, therapeutic doses of
anti-asthmatic drugs, free radical generation, lipid peroxidation (LPO) and
antioxidants in blood. At the end of 3 months of Amrita Bindu supplementation,
the patients had stopped all anti-asthmatic medications and were free from
attacks of asthma.
