Herbal Hills has evaluated nine of its formulations in clinical studies. This guide brings every study together in one place for doctors, clinics and trade partners.

Quick answer: Herbal Hills has evaluated nine Ayurvedic formulations in clinical studies conducted at Vishwanand Kendra, Pune, covering joint, cognitive, women's, men's, headache, hair and weight wellness.

Which Herbal Hills products have clinical studies?

Nine: Arthrohills capsule, Arthrohills oil, Smrutihills capsule, Femohills capsule, Proscarehills tablet, Migrahills tablet, Keshohills tablet, Keshohills hair oil and Trimohills tablet. The table below summarises each study's size, duration, headline result and journal.

Why do clinically studied Ayurvedic formulations matter to practitioners?

Clinical data gives practitioners objective information on dose, duration, expected change and safety before recommending a product. It also helps explain a recommendation to patients, and it distinguishes research-based proprietary formulations from products with no published evaluation.

How were the Herbal Hills studies conducted?

The studies were conducted at Vishwanand Kendra, Centre for Integrative Medicine & Research in Pune, led by Dr. Ajitkumar Mandlecha and Dr. Gous Mujawar, with Institutional Ethics Committee approval. They used standard outcome tools such as VAS, WOMAC, MoCA, IPSS, MIDAS and the 60-Second Hair Comb Test. The studies were sponsored by Herbal Hills.

Which study is registered with CTRI?

The Arthrohills capsule study in knee osteoarthritis is registered with the Clinical Trials Registry of India as CTRI/2017/06/008786. In that 90-day study of 33 participants, mean VAS pain scores fell from 68.93 to 31.88. Read the Arthrohills capsule study summary

What does 'ghee-based' mean for these products?

Arthrohills, Smrutihills and Femohills soft gels each contain 500 mg of processed cow ghee, prepared from Herbal Hills' own cow farm by the classical Siddha Ghruta method. Ghee is the classical Ayurvedic carrier (yogavahi) for herbal properties, and the soft gel gives a fixed dose. See how the ghrita is made

How can clinics, distributors and stores source these products?

All products are supplied directly by the manufacturer in retail packs and larger value packs; for example, the Arthrohills 900-capsule pack costs about 23% less per capsule than the 60-capsule pack. Registered practitioners can request study summaries and samples, and trade partners can request the wholesale price list.
