Arya Vaidya Sala(Est.1902), also known as Kottakkal Ayurveda, is located in the town of Kottakkal in Kerala, India. Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala is an innovative, pioneering, charitable institution engaged in the practice and propagation of Ayurveda, the ancient health care system of India. Arya Vaidya Sala offers classical Ayurvedic products, authentic Ayurvedic treatments & Pancakarma therapies to people all over the world.
Our products more than adequately meet the USA regulations for distributing these products as Food Supplements and Externally Applied Oils. This is due to identification and preservation of herbs and due to the manufacturing and QA procedures undertaken at Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala’s GMP certified manufacturing units in Kerala. The Ayurvedic products from Kerala are primarily composed of various botanical herbs. We are not distributing minerals or metals based Ayurvedic products. We are able to adequately meet the corresponding regulations backed by a large amount of in-house data from research on individual herbal ingredients.
Microbial Stability Testing
All products manufactured by Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala undergo a Microbial Stability test in real time conditions at its Scientific Research division – the CMPR(Center for Medical Plants Research).
Here, Dr. Rema Shree, Deputy Project Director, CMPR, explains it in brief:
Heavy Metal Test
Even though the products are primarily botanicals, all our products are still tested for Heavy Metal contents to be within the USA allowed limits. Each Batch is tested before being exported and on request we can provide the test reports. A sample report is here.
