Maharishi Amrit Kalash is a traditional product whose composition and exact preparation have been handed down in the classical texts for thousands of years. Because of its effect on vitality and life energy, it is called a rasayana. Rasayanas are all products and applications that contribute to the improvement of health and longevity.

For about 30 years Maharishi Amrit Kalash has been the object of many scientific studies. Today we would like to highlight one of these studies. It was published in 2001 and deals with the effect of Amrit Kalash on brain ageing.

Amrit Kalash and brain ageing

How does an aged brain with limited activity differ from a young and fully functioning central nervous system? The brain is essentially made up of fats. Old fats become rancid, which in scientific terms is called "lipid peroxidation". The amount of "rancid" fats in the brain is an important measure of its functional capacity.

Another criterion for how efficient the brain is is the amount of deposits within and between the nerve cells. One substance that is used as a measure of this is lipofuscin. A larger amount of lipofuscin in the nervous system means a reduction in the ability to think and remember.

With age, the oxygen supply to the organs decreases, so an aged brain is also supplied with less oxygen.

In an animal experiment* at India's Kurukshetra University, two groups were formed: One consisted of young animals, the second of old animals. In the old animals, a large amount of oxidised fats and lipofuscin deposits were measurable in the central nervous system, with a simultaneously significantly reduced oxygen supply. This affected different regions of the central nervous system such as the cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum and spinal cord.

In the experimental set-up, the older animals received Maharishi Amrit Kalash as a dietary supplement for 2 months. Then the three criteria for brain ageing (lipid peroxidation, lipofuscin deposition and oxygen consumption) were analysed again. Treatment with Maharishi Amrit Kalash for 2 months reduced lipid peroxidation and lipofuscin pigment accumulation in the brain regions studied. A normal oxygen supply could also be detected again in the brains of the older animals after 2 months.

The balanced composition of this food supplement forms the basis for its comprehensive life-supporting properties.

Amrit Kalash consists of a fruit-herb preparation (MA4) and herbal tablets (MA5). The health-promoting properties are described in detail in traditional Ayurvedic textbooks. In over 14 harvesting areas, 35 different herbs, roots and sun-ripened fruits are collected and hand-picked. In more than 250 time-consuming production steps, in which ghee and honey are added, 1 kg of Amrit Kalash is produced from 22 kg of raw plant material.

Scientific research has shown that Amrit Kalash contains an extraordinarily high concentration of substances with antioxidant effects. Amrit Kalash surpasses the antioxidant effectiveness of known products, such as synthetic vitamin C, many times over.

Application and dosage

To use Maharishi Amrit Kalash for effective prevention of brain ageing, a dosage of 2x 1 heaped teaspoon of MA4 paste and 2x 1 tablet of MA5 is recommended daily.

Summary

This study shows that Maharishi Amrit Kalash significantly reduces signs of ageing in the brain. Even though the study was designed as an animal experiment, conclusions can be drawn for a positive effect on the human brain.
