Ayurveda doctors note repeatedly that blood cholesterol levels are markedly reduced as a result of Panchakarma treatment. This has also been confirmed scientifically by a study from Freiburg University. 130 people were observed medically during the course of a purification treatment according to Maharishi Ayurveda.
Within two weeks the level of cholesterol as a whole dropped on average from 203.5 mg% to 179.5 mg%. In addition, the level of LDL- cholesterol, which is particularly harmful to the arterial walls, dropped by about 8.7%.
