Science and Quality
Prajna Prime Herbs Collection was created to deliver precise dosages recommended by Neurologist and Ayurvedic Practitioner Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary to her patients and the participants of her Prime Method Program.
Prajna Triphala
Prajna Triphala honors traditional Ayurvedic practices by using whole fruit powder and combining it with an extract from the fruit of the plant to provide a higher amount of beneficial actives than the whole fruit powder alone.
Animal studies provide evidence that triphala’s biological mechanisms may be due to its antioxidant properties and effect on the inflammatory response (Rasool M, Srikumar. Phytother Res. 2007 Sep;21(9):889-94.)
Prajna Ashwagandha
Prajna Ashwagandha honors traditional Ayurvedic practices by using whole root powder and combining it with clinically validated and award-winning KSM-66, a standardized extract from the root to create a modern Ayurvedic blend that helps the body adapt and respond to the effects of stress.
Prajna Ashwagandha is produced using “Green Chemistry” principles (no alcohol or chemical solvents) using a process that is consistent with that described in traditional Ayurveda texts. The KSM-66 extract is cultivated from whole roots organically grown in Rajasthan, India.
KSM-66 Ashwagandha
In a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study 91 healthy perimenopausal women ages 45–60 years supplemented with 600 mg KSM-66 or placebo for eight weeks.1
- At weeks 4 and 8, the KSM group had significantly greater reductions from baseline compared to the placebo group for:
- Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) total score, and MRS somatic, psychological, urogenital subscores
- KSM’s reduction in MRS total score was more than double that of placebo (23.5% vs. 10.9%) at week 8
- Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQoL) total score, and vasomotor subscore
- Hot flash score (number of events per day)
- KSM had an average reduction of 2.1 compared to 0.8 in the placebo group at week 8
- At week 8, the KSM group had a significantly greater reduction from baseline compared to the placebo group for:
- Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
- At week 8, the KSM group had a significantly greater increase from baseline compared to the placebo group for:
- Estradiol
In another double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, subjects taking KSM-66 saw a significant reduction in levels of cortisol—a primary stress hormone—after 60 days, compared to placebo. Subjects were then given well-recognized psychological questionnaire tests to measure the effect of KSM-66. Test scores showed a significant reduction in stress and a tremendous reduction in anxiousness. 2
In a prospective, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial, 50 healthy athletic adults received either 600 mg daily of KSM-66 or placebo over 12 weeks to evaluate the efficacy of KSM-66 on cardiorespiratory endurance and quality of life. Data was collected at baseline and on days 28, 56, and 84.3 The KSM-66 group showed the following improvements:
- Cardiorespiratory endurance (VO2 max measures translated from 20-meter shuttle run): VO2 max as a measurement determines an athlete's ability to take in, transport, and utilize oxygen.
- KSM-66 resulted in a significant increase in maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max) at Day 56 and Day 84 as compared to placebo.
- KSM-66 was able to help support cardiorespiratory performance in healthy adults while helping to improve their perception of their quality of life.
In another double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, female participants between the ages of 21–50 were given either a placebo or 600 mg of KSM-66 ashwagandha. After 8 weeks, the KSM-66 ashwagandha was seen to improve sexual function and feelings to enhance sexual health.4
Plus, research shows that KSM-66 ashwagandha supports healthy weight management. In a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 50 subjects between the ages of 18–60 with a history of ongoing, chronic stress were administered either a placebo or 600 mg daily of KSM-66 for 8 weeks. In conclusion, this study suggests that ashwagandha root extract can be used for body weight management in adults under ongoing stress.5
Prajna Brahmi
Prajna Ayurveda Brahmi was created to deliver the precise dosages recommended by Neurologist and Ayurvedic Practitioner Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary to her patients and the participants of her Prime Method Program.
Prajna Brahmi honors traditional Ayurvedic practices by using the plant powder, in its composition found in nature, and combining it with clinically validated Synapsa®, a patented and standardized extract from the plant to create a modern Ayurvedic blend that supports brain health and cognitive function.
Brahmi Extract (Synapsa)
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized trial, 62 healthy subjects between the ages of 18–60 years took Synapsa or placebo daily for 90 days. Supplementation with this patented Brahmi extract resulted in significant improvement in working memory and rapid visual information processing.6
In another randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial, 46 healthy subjects took Synapsa or placebo daily for 12 weeks. Supplementation with Brahmi resulted in improvements in visual information processing speed, learning rate, memory consolidation, as well as reduction in occasional anxiousness.7
In a randomized controlled trial, 35 subjects between the ages of 55–70 years supplemented with Brahmi extract or placebo daily for 12 weeks. Those taking Brahmi demonstrated a significant increase in total memory score and logical memory subscore compared to baseline.8
In an acute, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study, 24 healthy subjects between the ages of 18-56 years supplemented with Synapsa or placebo. Those taking Synapsa showed a significant improvement in their cognitive demand score, assessing mental function, versus placebo.9
Prajna Guggul
Prajna Guggul was created to deliver dosages recommended by Neurologist and Ayurvedic Practitioner Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary to her patients and the participants in her Prime Method Program.
Prajna Guggul honors traditional Ayurvedic practices by using guggul powder in the form found in nature and combining it with a wild-crafted guggul extract that is more powerful than the powder alone. This integrative East/West approach maximizes the benefits of this remarkable Ayurvedic herb.

FAQs
- What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is the traditional medical system of India and one of the oldest surviving healing systems in the world (at least 5,000 years old). “Ayu” means life and “veda” means knowledge, so Ayurveda is the knowledge of life. It’s based on the philosophy that good health depends on the balance between the mind, body, and spirit. Ayurveda deepens your connection to who you are and aligns you with the natural world. The practice of Ayurveda is a journey towards greater self-awareness and balance so you’re able to make healthier decisions about your life.
- What is a dosha and how do I know what mine is? The doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—are the foundation of Ayurveda. They’re the energies that govern our mind and body. Think of them as your own personal blueprint, a map to yourself. We’re all made up of a combination of these three energies and by knowing your dosha, you take the guess work out of what diet and lifestyle changes to make to achieve desired health and life goals. To learn more about doshas, and which dosha type you are, you can read Dr. Chaudhary’s article "What is Your Dosha?"
- What are Adaptogens? Adaptogens are certain herbs or mushrooms thought to have health benefits that can help how our body and mind manages fatigue, stress, and feelings of anxiousness. They are used in Ayurveda to help balance and strengthen the body and mind.
- Where are the ingredients sourced? We take great care in sourcing all of our ingredients so that they meet our stringent quality, safety and purity standards. Our Prajna Ayurveda traditionally used powders are sourced from responsible growers in India and are organically grown without any pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
- When will I begin to see results? The beauty of the Prajna Ayurveda herbs is that you will know when they begin working. With regular use, most people should notice an improvement and noticeable benefits over time. Dr. Chaudhary suggests that you give any new regimen, including dietary and lifestyle changes, at least 90 days to work effectively on your body and mind to achieve a healthy balance.
- Can I use more than one herbal product at once? Yes, you can. In general, herbs work very well together. The Prime Collection herbs in particular were personally selected by Dr. Chaudhary to be a part of her Prime Method program and specifically selected for their balancing effects on the body and mind to help achieve the desired health goals.
- Do your products use the whole Ayurvedic herb or standardized extracts, and what is the difference? It was important to us that we honor the traditional practice of Ayurveda and include the herb in whole powder form in all of our products, as this is the composition in which they exist in nature. Science has also made it possible to create concentrated extracts of the whole herb, so combining the traditionally used whole powders with the standardized extract, we can ensure quality and potency so that you get all of the intended health benefits of the herb, without taking a lot of pills.
- How should I store my product? All products are shelf-stable and should be stored in a cool and dry environment without any exposure to direct sunlight. You can store your products on your kitchen counter or wherever is convenient for your daily use.
- What is the best time of day to take the product? All products are designed for gentle daily use, and with the exception of Triphala which is best to take 30 minutes before bed, can be taken morning and/or evening with a meal.
- How do you ensure product safety? Healthy Directions adheres to stringent quality standards and a unique Triple-Testing Philosophy™ that meets all industry Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and FDA requirements to deliver safe, superior products every time.
- Is it normal to have gas and bloating and hyperacidity after taking Triphala? Yes, this is very common for someone who has a lot of excess Kapha (gas/bloating) and excess Pitta (hyperacidity/constipation/stickiness), especially as the stagnant dosha imbalances are being reharmonized.
