Our Journey

How our journey with Satvayur began…

Our journey into the natural world of healing started about 8 years ago, when our then 1-year old daughter was diagnosed with asthma. We delved deep into the world of holistic healing and wellness, exploring connections of all types – food-body-mind-lifestyle.

Ayurveda, the traditional Indian health system, helped us focus on a combination of home remedies, dietary changes, special herbs (Ayurvedic medicines), and lifestyle changes. We observed that certain “wrong” foods would trigger off asthma attacks. Some because they were just incompatible with her, some others because of chemical additives which caused allergic reactions. We learnt what to avoid, what to augment and what foods and spices to use as remedials. In less than six months, we could take her off the preventive inhaler, while the use of an emergency inhaler treatment reduced to almost nil.

We realised the value of the Hippocratic philosophy –  “Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food”.

… and we wanted to be a part of the global journey into wellness.

We also realised that people of all ages faced allergic reactions from additives in foods, cosmetics, creams and lotions. We decided to invest in a facility to manufacture pure extracts of spices and herbs for use in nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, aromatherapy and cosmetics. And thus, our Satvayur journey started!
