It improved symptoms related to increased vata, pitta and kapha (p<0.001) in highly significant manner. The improvement of rasa-kshaya and rasavaha sroto dushti is highly significant (p<0.001). Increase in HDL and decrease in triglycerides (17.03%), SGOT (11.66%) is highly significant (p<0.001). The DHEAS level increased (42.68%) only in female patients aged 30-40, but statistically insignificant (p>0.05).
