Abstract

Ayurveda is a science of life that has been around for thousands of years. In Ayurvedic medicine, polyherbal combinations are common for treating various ailments, especially Vata Roga. In the Classical literature of Ayurveda, so many compound formulations are found with more than two ingredients, and Dasamoola is one of them. The health benefits of Dasamoola have been used in several formulations for different diseases like Swasa (Bronchial asthma), Kasa (Cough), Siroroga (disease-related Brain), Tandra (Drowsiness), Sotha (Inflammation), Anaha (distended abdomen), Parswa Sula and Aruchi (Anorexia). Even though this formulation has been widely used in the Ayurvedic system of medicine to cure inflammation-related diseases, no more profound research studies have been conducted to prove its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. From the pharmacological study, Dasamoola had impeccable anti-inflammatory activity. The Dasamoola preparation contains various phytochemicals such as alkaloids, tannins, saponins, flavonoids and quinones, total phenolic content and exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.
