چکیده
Objective: The present study was carried out to compare the quality of new and 24 months old sample of Chyawanprash from the same brand. Material and Methods: Total polyphenolics, total reducing sugar, ascorbic acid, hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF), and fibre content were measured in both the new and 24 months old sample of Chyawanprash. Results: Results obtained reveal the reduction in the percentage of total polyphenolics, total reducing sugar and ascorbic acid content while high level of HMF in the old sample as compared with new sample of Chyawanprash. Conclusion: The results indicate that chemical degradation might take place during storage and may result in the loss of therapeutic activity of Chyawanprash.
