Each
plant has been described as a ‘Deity’ in the Vedas,
and in case of pure herbal products, there are specific
ways, reasons, seasons, times, places & specific
recitation of ‘Vedic-mantras’, described in the
Ayurvedic texts to collect the specified herbs for
specified products. As such, they are only processed by
the methods; like washing, cleansing, purification,
crushing or grinding, filteration through muslin cloth,
sun-drying, for their use either as powder, decoction,
percoction, paste, puree, etc.; described in the Ayurvedic
texts and used in the ultimate formulations.
The
traditional Indian Medicine, Ayurveda was based
perfectly on empirical obeservations & practice rather
than philosophy alone. The earliest Indian literature, The
Vedas, which date from about 3000 B.C., contain
detailed descriptions of numerous disorders and their
treatments. Ayurveda, as Vedic Medicine is
known, was based largely on Herbal-treatment. The Charak
Samhita (An ancient Ayurvedic text narrated by
Lord Agnivesh), signifies "Only that, which can bring
about a cure, is a true medicine and only that who can
relieve his patients of their ailments is the true
physician" (Sutrasthanam, Chapter-I, Verse 134).
Even an acute poison can become an excellent drug if it is
properly processed & administered and on the other
hand, even the most outstanding drug, if not properly
processed & administered, becomes an acute poison.
In
order to assure the quality and reduce the variability in
the Ayurvedic formulations, "PENTAVOX HERBALS",
using the rich expertise of a team effort of hi-tech
professionals comprising of highly qualified, experienced
& specialist herbal-technocrats & scientists,
plant-microbiologists, pharmacists, agriculturists,
bio-technologists and above all Ayurvedic Vaidyas
(The qualified & specialist Ayurvedic Physicians) have
successfully combined the ORTHODOX ANCESTRAL WISDOM, taken
from the Ancient Ayurvedic texts, with an updated advance
computerised technologies, by understanding the entire
manufacturing process and the basic values of all the
ingredients, by:
-
Updating
a thorough knowledge and deep technical information
(the chemistry, the qualitative & quantitative
composition) about active ingredients of herbs and
their compatabilities;
-
Comprehending
inter- and intra-batch variations in the same plant,
including the complex problems of the formulations;
-
Sourcing
rightly, pollutant/contaminant free herbs (from the
cultivation) and controlling the factors of heredity,
ontogeny (stage of growth), methods of collection,
post harvest handling at the point of source and
storage;
-
Ensuring
all standards’ specifications of health by rigidly
checking rampant adulterations & substitutions in
the plant parts and properly treating them so as to
preserve their qualities during storage or processing;
-
Validating
dosage form’s manufacturing process subjecting to
various n-process controls developed by Research &
Development levels and final preparations to rigid
quality control testing;
for
which the entire manufacturing process has been
systematically divided into:
-
Standardisation
of Raw material
-
Validated
process of manufacture
-
Validated
manufacturing equipment
-
Stringent
environmental controls
