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.
