What research says

- Laboratory studyA laboratory analysis of fresh ash gourd juice found phenolic compounds (gallic acid the most abundant) plus oleanolic and ursolic acids, and measurable radical-scavenging and iron-binding activity.

Questions
What does “India's Cleanest” mean?
It means the shortest honest ingredient list we can make: whole ingredients only, with no additives, preservatives, artificial colours or flavours, and every product independently lab tested. The full list is printed on the pack and on each product page, with the reference for what is known about every ingredient.
Are your products lab tested?
Yes. Our products are tested by an independent laboratory, and the lab report is available on request. Write to us with the product name and we will send it.
Are they FSSAI approved?
Our blends are made from whole food ingredients in an FSSAI-licensed kitchen. They suit most adults as part of a normal diet. If you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition or take regular medication, please check with your doctor first.
How do I use them?
Podis are chewed by the spoonful, usually after meals. Drink mixes are stirred into a glass of water. The Kalonji Mix is sprinkled on food or stirred into buttermilk, and the Flax Seed Podi is simmered into a warm, kheer-like dessert. Each product page has the steps.
Can I take them with my regular medicines?
Our products are food, not medicine, and they don't replace anything your doctor has prescribed. Please never stop or change a prescription on your own. Talk to your doctor about adding these to your routine.
