| Abstract: |
Background: Indigenous medical systems employ unique pharmaceutical techniques to meet the therapeutic needs. In the Indian System of Medicine, Ayurveda, a unique method called “Ayolepam” is described that facilitates efficient iron absorption from its source to the formulation. Punarnavayolepa Choornam (PC), prepared from Boerhavia diffusa L. (Punarnava in Ayurveda), is one such novel Ayolepam formulation developed by a traditional Ayurveda school of South India, widely used in the clinical management of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). This study aimed to scientifically evaluate the Ayolepam technique by assessing the iron-binding and bioavailability properties of PC, prepared from the leaves, root, and whole plant of B. diffusa, using in vitro model systems. |
