How a formula is made, in five steps.

Our formulas are made in India by our parent company and tested before they reach you.

  1. 1

    Chosen by recipe

    Herbs, roots and fruits are selected to match each traditional recipe. Our organic line is certified by Oregon Tilth in the US and by OneCert in India.

    Prepared in India

    Maharishi Ayurveda Products, founded in 1986, makes our formulas at its own facilities in India.

  3. 3

    Given time

    Some formulas take months to prepare. Ayurveda has a word for this deliberate preparation: saṃskāra.

  4. 4

    Tested, then tested again

    Checked before, during and after manufacture, then re-tested by an independent lab that meets ISO 17025 standards.

  5. 5
