[MPWG] Comments on recent research finding about Ayurvedic Formulation.

[pankaj oudhia]

I have few queries before giving comments.In Ayuerveda and many 
other systems of medicine including Homoeopathy Arsenic and other 
chemicals are used as medicine. 
 
Hartal is one of these medicines in 
which sulphides of Arsenic are used.The details of Hartal can be 
obtained from
Traditional Medicinal knowledge about Hartal in Chhattisgarh, 
India
http://botanical.com/site/column_poudhia/219_hartal.html

Arsenic album is one of the frequently used medicine in 
Homoeopathy.It is reported to be very effective against cancer.I 
would also like to add that Arsenic is not always harmful.
 
In many parts of World Arsenic is used by the women for getting beauty and 
by men as tonic.

Similiar is the case with Mercury (Parad) and Lead.
 
Its use requires expertise.

>From the researchers of present study I would like to get the 
names of these products.There is a possiblity of presence of these 
chemicals in these products as age old formulation.

It seems from the study that the conclusion has been drawn in 
hurry.Also for confirmation more study is needed .The team of Herb 
experts is needed in the study for correct interpretation.

This claim is also needed confirmation that these products are 
prepared in India or it is mere a conclusion based on the 
information given in labels.
