Unlocking the nutritional secrets of spices with AKAY!

Spices & Herbs are well-known for their health guarding effects and immunity boosting/protecting effects. Ayurveda, a way of life rather than a treatment modality, uses a number of GRAS-listed kitchen spices and herbs for the maintaining and guarding the health and well-being, in addition to its role in the prevention and treatment of diseases. However, the taste, aroma, pungency and solubility are issues. Here we introduce a range of traditional Indian spices and herbs and their uniquely standardized clean label extracts which may help in balancing the immunity & well-being (IMMUNOMODULATORY HERBALS), especially under the current scenario when consumers are seeking safe & natural alternatives for health.

To be healthy, body needs to have sufficient defences to fight infection- that is IMMUNITY.
