Overview

India’s ancient science of healing is at a conservative estimate, about five thousand years old. It is purely herbal based, its medication made from the roots, the leaves, the sap or even the bark of a tree; from small shrubs and weeds; from spices and their extracts. And sometimes even from precious metals administered in powdered form. No chemicals are used. So there are no harmful or painful side effects.
