IAS Officer rediscovers Ayurveda for Wellness and Healthcare

Seldom are we aware how an incident can lead to a surprising turn of events, as much as, to a great invention. Mr. S. M. Raju, an IAS officer of the Bihar Cadre, had his father suffering from kidney failure in 2008, and his second son suffering from blood cancer in 2010. Since, he had heard about Vedas being rich source of methods and measures for health care and treatments, he started reading them. Going through the realms of Vedic literature, he discovered the role of plant parts in healing the body.

Being an Agriculture Science graduate with background of medicinal plants course study, he researched further to develop medicines that can heal our body without having any side effects. He first successfully tested his discovery to treat his own age-old rheumatoid arthiritis, later clinically using it to treat the ailments of his son and father. All of them are living a healthy life today.

Encouraged with the results, he started researching further. He addressed a lot of common but serious ailments and found plant extracts based healing solutions. A series of medicines were prepared, each aimed at different ailments. The results were so dramatic that people who were relieved termed these potions as ‘miracle’. And hence the inventor named them as“Miracle Drinks”. Many of these users were high profile individuals and celebrities like Mr. Shripad Yesso Naik, Hon’ble Union Minister of State, Ministry of AYUSH (Independent Charge) and veteran actor Aditya Pancholi and actress Anju Mahendru.

Elixir for Life is a new range of multiple herbal compounds which can be used to treat incurable but pre-dominant diseases like joint pain, arthritis, liver and kidney failure, gynic issues or hormonal imbalance and gastric problems.
