Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)

Vitamins are the building blocks of our bodies, providing a range of important functions, from supporting growth and development, to strengthening the immune system, to promoting mental well-being. One of the lesser known sources of vitamins is a plant known by many names - Dabra, Prishriparni, Phrisnaparni, Hedysarum pictum, or Pithvan. This plant is a rich source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, making it an ideal dietary supplement for those looking for a natural way to boost their health.

The products in which the vitamins from the Dabra, Prishriparni, Phrisnaparni, Hedysarum pictum or Pithvan plant are used are mostly in the health food and dietary supplement industry. These plants are often used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and analgesic properties. Various parts of the plant, including leaves, flowers and roots, are used to prepare teas, syrups and oils. They are also sometimes used as part of plasters and poultices to treat various skin ailments. Recently, they have also started to appear as part of various superfoods and health supplements that offer many health benefits.
