Continuing its mission to promote the benefits of Ayurvedic herbs, Dabur India Limited, the country’s largest science-based Ayurveda company, has launched a campaign to recognize mint (pudina) as a wonder herb. The campaign was inaugurated at an event held in Kolkata. Present at the launch were Prof (Dr.) Danish Zafar and Dinesh Kumar, Manager, Corporate Communications, Dabur India Limited.
Speaking about the utility of mint, Prof (Dr.) Danish Zafar stated that mint is rich in antioxidants and phytonutrients that can work wonders for the human stomach, especially during the scorching heat. With rising temperatures and frequent heatwaves, health problems during summer have become common. In view of potential health concerns in this intense season, Dabur recommends the use of mint for those who spend long hours in the sun and suffer from common summer ailments.
Addressing the event, Mr. Dinesh Kumar, Manager, Corporate Communications, Dabur India Limited said, “As lifestyle trends and work patterns evolve, people today are multitasking more than ever and need effective, natural solutions. As the most trusted healthcare company, Dabur strengthens its commitment to delivering traditional Ayurveda for everyday health issues. Pudin Hara is a proven remedy for various gastric disorders. Considering the wide range of illnesses prevalent in the summer, Pudin Hara helps address digestive issues like indigestion, gas, and acidity.”
Prof (Dr.) Danish Zafar, Ayurvedic physician, added: Ancient Ayurvedic texts hold deep insights for managing modern-day diseases. The historical use of mint goes back 3,000 years, and it has been named a ‘wonder herb’ for its benefits to the human digestive system. The menthol in mint stimulates digestive enzymes, relaxes stomach muscles, and reduces chances of indigestion and cramps. It is also known for its soothing effects on stomach spasms, acidity, and bloating.
Today, many antacids available in the market contain harsh chemicals like aluminum/magnesium hydroxide, which can have harmful effects if taken regularly. In contrast, Dabur Pudin Hara, a century-old brand from Dabur, is an Ayurvedic remedy enriched with the goodness of mint extract. It offers quick and effective relief from stomach problems such as gas, indigestion, stomach pain, and acidity. Pudin Hara is available in various forms—tablets, liquid, powder, and the fizzy Pudin Hara Fizz offering a natural alternative to harsh chemical-based antacids.
