Abstract

Introduction: Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties. It has been traditionally used in Ayurveda for detoxification, blood purification, and enhancing energy levels. Chronic conditions such as Kasa (chronic cough), Swasa (asthma), Dhathukshaya (muscle wasting), Dourbalya (general weakness), cachexia, and fatigue result from oxidative stress, inflammation, and immune dysfunction. Conventional treatments for these disorders often include steroids, bronchodilators, and synthetic supplements, which may cause long-term side effects. This study clinically validates Wheat Grass Capsule, a proprietary Ayurvedic formulation, for its efficacy in improving respiratory health, boosting immunity, and enhancing overall well-being. The primary objective of this Phase-II-A, single-center, open-label, therapeutic exploratory clinical trial was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Wheat Grass Capsule in managing chronic cough, asthma, muscle weakness, and immune dysfunction.

Methods: A total of 20 patients with respiratory and oxidative stress-related symptoms were enrolled following ethical clearance. Patients were administered 1-2 capsules twice daily with lukewarm water for 30 days. Clinical investigations and laboratory assessments were conducted on Day 1 (Baseline) and Day 30 (End of Trial) by qualified AYUSH practitioners. Parameters such as respiratory function, muscle strength, hemoglobin levels, inflammatory markers, and overall vitality were monitored.

Results: After 30 days of treatment, 70% (14 patients) showed very good improvement, 15% (3 patients) had moderate improvement, 10% (2 patients) had mild improvement, and 5% (1 patient) dropped out. The formulation significantly enhanced respiratory function, improved stamina, and boosted immune response.

Conclusion: The study confirms that Wheat Grass Capsule is an effective Ayurvedic intervention for respiratory health, muscle regeneration, and immune support. The formulation demonstrated significant improvements in energy levels, respiratory function, and overall well-being, making it a promising natural therapeutic alternative. Further large-scale trials are recommended for broader validation.
