Introduction

Ayurveda, one of the world’s oldest holistic healing systems, emphasizes the balance of body, mind, and spirit to promote health and prevent disease [1]. Central to Ayurvedic pharmacology is the use of polyherbal formulations, which combine multiple medicinal plants to achieve synergistic therapeutic effects [2]. Among these, Chyavanprasam stands out as a time-honored Rasayana (rejuvenative) formulation, celebrated for its ability to enhance vitality, strengthen immunity, and promote overall well-being [3]. Traditionally prepared as a semi-solid herbal preparation, Chyavanprasam is a complex blend of herbs, spices, and other natural ingredients, with Emblica officinalis as a cornerstone due to its high vitamin C content and potent antioxidant properties [4]. Other key ingredients, such as Withania somnifera, Asparagus racemosus, Piper longum and Tinospora cordifolia, contribute adaptogenic, immunomodulatory, and nourishing effects, making it a versatile supplement for combating fatigue, boosting immunity, promoting hair growth, and supporting overall physical wellness [2,3].

The origins of Chyavanprasam are rooted in ancient Ayurvedic texts, such as the Charaka Samhita and Ashtanga Hridaya, where it is described as a formulation developed to rejuvenate the sage Chyavana, restoring his youth and vitality [1]. Its multifaceted benefits stem from the synergistic action of its ingredients, which address various physiological systems [4]. For instance, Amalaki’s antioxidant properties combat oxidative stress, a key contributor to fatigue and immune suppression [3]. Ashwagandha, an adaptogen, mitigates stress and enhances energy levels, while Sathavari and Vidari nourish tissues, supporting hair growth and overall vitality. Pippali enhances bioavailability and supports respiratory health, contributing to the formulation’s holistic effects [2]. These properties make Chyavanprasam a valuable tool in addressing modern health challenges, including chronic fatigue, weakened immunity due to lifestyle stressors, hair loss linked to nutritional deficiencies, and the need for comprehensive physical wellness [5].

Despite its efficacy, the traditional semi-solid form of Chyavanprasam poses challenges in modern contexts, including variable dosing, and inconvenience for daily use, particularly for individuals with busy lifestyles [3]. Additionally, the sugar content in traditional Chyavanprasam, often incorporated as a base or sweetener, can be a concern for diabetic individuals, limiting its accessibility to this population [4]. To address these limitations, Chyavanaprasam K Tab was developed as a novel tablet formulation by Sitaram Ayurveda Pvt. Ltd., retaining the therapeutic essence of Chyavanprasam while offering standardized dosing & enhanced portability [5]. This innovation aligns with the growing demand for convenient, evidence-based herbal supplements that meet modern quality and safety standards [2]. By transforming Chyavanaprasam into a tablet format, Chyavanaprasam K Tab preserves the essence and therapeutic benefits of the traditional lehyam while offering a convenient and consistent way to deliver its bioactive compounds. This makes it accessible to a wider population seeking natural support for energy, immunity, hair health, and overall wellness [4].

This study aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of Chyavanaprasam K Tab, focusing on its preparation, quality control, and therapeutic potential. Through rigorous organoleptic, physicochemical, microbial, heavy metal, phytochemical, nutritional, and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analyses, the tablet’s quality & safety were assessed. The formulation process adheres to traditional Ayurvedic methods while incorporating modern pharmaceutical techniques to ensure uniformity and potency [5]. The presence of key bioactives, such as flavonoids, glycosides, and phenols, was investigated to validate the tablet’s therapeutic claims. Additionally, nutritional profiling was conducted to highlight its role as a supplement enriched with essential micronutrients [3]. By bridging traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with contemporary scientific validation, this study seeks to establish Chyavanaprasam K Tab as a reliable and effective option for promoting holistic health in the modern era.

2.3 Preparation process

Chyavanprasham K Tab was prepared by using ingredients mentioned in Table 1, followed by traditional Ayurvedic tablet-making techniques to ensure uniformity and potency.

2.4 Organoleptic Analysis

The tablet’s Organoleptic characteristics, including color, smell, and taste, were assessed to confirm consistency with expected Ayurvedic standards [6].

2.5 Physicochemical Analysis

Tests for average weight, friability, hardness, disintegration time, and moisture content were conducted to evaluate the tablet’s structural integrity and suitability for consumption [7].

2.6. Microbial Limit Test

Microbial safety testing was performed as per the guidelines of the Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India. Samples were collected aseptically, and Nutrient Agar (NA) and Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) were prepared for bacterial and fungal isolation, respectively. pH-adjusted using 1N NaOH or HCl, autoclaved, and poured into sterile Petri dishes. After solidification, 1 g of sample was diluted in 9 ml sterile diluent, and 0.1 ml aliquots from appropriate dilutions were spread on media. NA plates were incubated at 37°C for 24–48 hours, and SDA plates at room temperature for 3–5 days. Colonies were analysed microscopically and biochemically, with counts compared to permissible limits [7].

2.7. Heavy Metal Toxicity Analysis (HMT)

Heavy metal content was determined using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). A 1 ppm stock solution was made by diluting a 9-element standard in 100 ml SIEMENS water. Calibration standards (0.5–250 ppb) were prepared. Samples (0.2–0.5 g) were digested with 5 ml HNO3, 0.5 ml HCl, and 1 ml H2O2 for 15 minutes, then diluted in 50 ml ultrapure water. The digested sample was nebulized into the ICP-MS, where ion counts indicated metal concentrations [8].

2. 6 Preliminary Phytochemical Analysis

Qualitative tests identified bioactive constituents like carbohydrates, glycosides, flavonoids, phenols, saponins, alkaloids, tannins, and coumarins in water and ethanol extracts of the tablet [9].

2.9 Nutritional profiling

The energy, macronutrient, vitamin, and mineral composition was determined based on standardized food analysis protocols as per AOAC-recommended guidelines [8].

2.10 Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC)

Thin Layer Chromatographic (TLC) fingerprint analysis was performed to separate distinct bands. A 10 g sample was refluxed with 50 ml of methanol for 45 min, then filtered and completely evaporated using a water bath. TLC was conducted using pre coated silica gel 60 F254 Plate as the adsorbent [10].

The methanol extract of the sample drug was applied to the silica gel surface using a fine capillary tube, positioned 2 cm above the lower edge of the plate, and allowed to evaporate. The prepared TLC plate was then carefully placed at a 45° angle inside the development chamber, ensuring that the capillary-spotted area remained above the solvent level.

Development was carried out using a mobile phase consisting of a Toluene and Ethyl Acetate mixture in a 9:1 ratio. The developed plate was examined under UV light at 366 nm.

Chyavanaprasam K Tab represents a modern adaptation of the classical Ayurvedic formulation Chyavanprasam, tailored for convenience and standardized dosing. The organoleptic analysis confirmed a characteristic brown colour, astringent taste, and distinct herbal odour, aligning with traditional expectations for polyherbal formulations. The physicochemical properties, including an average tablet weight of 1000 mg ± 5%, friability below 1%, hardness of 3–5 kg/cm², disintegration time under 45 minutes, and moisture content below 7%, indicate robust structural integrity and suitability for oral administration. These parameters ensure the tablet’s stability during storage and ease of use for consumers.

Microbial limit testing revealed the absence of pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli, Staphylococcus spp., Pseudomonas spp., and Salmonella spp. Total bacterial and fungal counts were also found to be absent, as per the limits specified in the Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India. Heavy metal analysis further confirmed safety, with cadmium at a negligible 0.322 mg/kg and no detectable levels of lead, mercury, or arsenic, ensuring compliance with safety standards for herbal formulations.

Phytochemical analysis identified a rich profile of bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, glycosides, phenols, saponins, tannins, and coumarins, which underpin the tablet’s therapeutic potential. Flavonoids and phenols, known for their antioxidant properties [11], likely contribute to the formulation’s ability to combat fatigue and enhance immunity [12]. Glycosides and saponins support hair growth by improving scalp health and circulation [13], while tannins and coumarins offer anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits, promoting overall wellness [14,15]. The presence of these compounds in both water and ethanol extracts suggests a broad spectrum of bioactivity.

Nutritional profiling revealed a low-calorie composition (3 kcal/100 g) with essential micronutrients such as vitamin C (4 mg/100 g), calcium (8 mg/100 g), and potassium (8 mg/100 g). Vitamin C, primarily from Amalaki, is a potent antioxidant that supports immune function and tissue repair, aiding in fatigue relief and physical wellness [16]. Calcium and potassium contribute to bone health and muscle function [17], respectively, further enhancing the formulation’s role in overall vitality. The absence of fats, cholesterol, and sugars makes the tablet suitable for individuals seeking a health supplement without caloric overload.

Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) analysis confirmed the presence of key herbal constituents in Chyavanaprasam K Tab, with Rf values of the tablet showing significant overlap with those of major ingredients such as Amalaki, Ashwagandha, Vidari and Pippalli. This overlap, particularly at Rf values like 0.60 and 0.81, verifies the successful incorporation of these therapeutic herbs into the tablet, ensuring consistency with the traditional Chyavanprasam formulation. The use of a Toluene: Ethyl Acetate (9:1) mobile phase effectively separated the complex mixture of compounds, providing a reliable chromatographic fingerprint for quality control.

The therapeutic benefits of Chyavanaprasam K Tab can be attributed to its key ingredients. Emblica officinalis (Amalaki) is renowned for its high vitamin C content and antioxidant properties, which bolster immunity and combat oxidative stress associated with fatigue. Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha), an adaptogen, helps mitigate stress and enhance energy levels, making it effective for fatigue relief and overall vitality. Ipomoea mauritiana (Vidari) and Asparagus racemosus (Sathavari) nourish tissues and support hair growth by improving scalp health and hormonal balance. Piper longum (Pippali) enhances bioavailability and supports respiratory health, contributing to overall wellness. The synergistic action of these herbs, combined with the tablet’s standardized form, makes Chyavanaprasam K Tab a versatile supplement for modern health needs.

5. CONCLUSION

Chyavanaprasam K Tab is a scientifically validated Ayurvedic formulation that effectively translates the traditional benefits of Chyavanprasam into a convenient tablet form. Comprehensive analyses confirmed its sensory consistency, structural stability, microbial safety, and absence of toxic heavy metals. The presence of bioactive phytochemicals, including flavonoids, glycosides, and phenols, supports its efficacy in addressing fatigue, boosting immunity, promoting hair growth, and enhancing overall physical wellness. The nutritional profile, enriched with vitamin C, calcium, and potassium, further underscores its suitability as a daily health supplement.
