It contains a mixture of active ingredients, including the two saponins bacosides A and B, the alkaloid brahmine, flavonoids and various phytosterols and triterpenes, all of which contribute to its unique effects.
KURKUMA CURCUMIN
Turmeric is one of the most well-researched plants due to its wealth of valuable phytochemicals. Turmeric's effects result from its special plant compounds, the well-known curcuminoids, which work in tandem with other bioactive root compounds such as turmerosaccharides and essential oils. To maintain this synergy, we combine our premium turmeric extract with turmeric powder. All our ingredients are 100% fresh, sourced directly from India, and cultivated without pesticides.
Saffron
Saffron, which has had a firm place in the traditional botany of many cultures for hundreds of years, is considered the most aromatic and precious spice in the world. The phytochemical composition of saffron is now well studied — so far the plant has been shown to harbour over 150 different phytochemicals. The most important active compounds are safranal and crocine.
TULSI
Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum; Ocimum sanctum; holy basil) is one of the most well-known herbs in Indian botany and is revered as a sacred plant in India due to its diverse range of effects. The plant contains high concentrations of potent ingredients including tannins, essential oils, polysaccharides, terpenoids and flavonoids.
Liquorice Root
In India, liquorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is considered to be one of the most important natural remedies. The root contains over 400 bioactive substances, including more than 20 triterpene saponins and over 300 flavonoids.

Known both as Ceylon cinnamon and true cinnamon, the bark of the tree produces the most exquisite and aromatic type of cinnamon, and is rich in nutrients and pleasantly sweet.
